Oh-be-joyful Creek is a stream in Gunnison County, Colorado, in the United States.

Oh-be-joyful Creek was so named in the 19th century after valuable ore was discovered in the gulch.

The creek's headwaters form on the east slope of the Ruby Range in the vicinity of Oh-be-joyful Peak and Afley Peak. The creek is a tributary of the Slate River.
