Martineau River is joined by several smaller creeks and rivers en route to Cold Lake, including the Muskeg River, Kesatasew River, Middle Creek, and Ustookumin Creek. Several lakes, including Muskeg, Wotherspoon, Matisekawe, Kesatasew, Ethelwyn, and Lost Lakes are within the river's drainage basin.
