The Hueston Woods Covered Bridge is Preble County's newest covered bridge which was unveiled in June 2012. The Hueston Woods Covered Bridge is a single-span modified Burr Arch design, covered timber structure with reinforced concrete foundations that span 108 feet. At 28 feet wide, a six-foot covered walkway is located on each side of the bridge to provide a safer area for pedestrian traffic, along with a scenic viewing area of Four Mile Creek.

One of eight covered bridges in Preble County, Ohio, the Hueston Woods Covered Bridge was built to span over the Four Mile Creek at Hueston Woods State Park. The covered bridge replaced a metal pony truss bridge at the same location on Camden College Corner Road, just a few miles east of the state line between Ohio and Indiana.

The covered bridge was constructed at a cost of $1,997,500 and is the brainchild of J. Stephen Simmons, who is a retired Preble County engineer. Simmons was instrumental in 2007 in enabling Preble County to receive most of the funding needed for the new covered bridge from the Federal Highway Administration, administered through the Ohio Department of Transportation. As the covered bridge is at a state park, it was decided that a covered bridge would make a nice attraction and addition to the park, so when it was determined that a new bridge had to be built, a covered bridge was selected to be built in place. A Burr truss design with an arch was chosen in homage to another covered bridge in Preble County, the Roberts Covered Bridge.
