Little Paint Creek Campground

Little Paint Campground offers 80 primitive campsites with direct access to Little Paint Creek for trout fishing, featuring grassy level sites, fire rings, picnic tables, and vault toilets.

The campground is situated along the creek with many sites positioned next to or overlooking the water, making it ideal for anglers, though there are no hookups, electricity, or cell service.

Water is available at the park entrance, and the campground serves as a trailhead for hiking and backpacking in Yellow River State Forest's Paint Creek Unit.
