Yellow Creek Recreation Area offers a developed boat ramp with ample parking and an overlook, serving as a popular fishing put-in and floating take-out on the Umpqua River.

Located at Milepost 12A on Highway 138 near Oakland, the park features two direct river access areas, picnic facilities, and a port-a-potty.

The site was recently restored in 2025 with reinforced boulders, paved ramp turnaround, and improved parking lot access.
