Formed in 1905 as Creetown Rifle Volunteers Football Club they adopted their present name in 1920. They originally played their home matches at Barholm Park, which had been the ground of Barholm Rovers, who went out of existence in 1905. They now play home matches at Castlecary Park which despite being a fairly undeveloped ground accommodates up to 2,000 spectators, although crowds rarely exceed 50.
For the 2009-10 season Creetown played their home matches twelve miles away at Ballgreen Park, Kirkcowan, which was the home of the now defunct Tarff Rovers, while upgrading work took place at Castlecary Park to bring the facilities up to League standards.
They presently compete in the South of Scotland Football League. Creetown can only qualify for the Scottish Cup by winning the South of Scotland League. However, their best finish to date is 2nd in season 2004-05.
Their strip (uniform) colours are yellow and black.
