It's about 7 miles off the road and it's definitely a little bit rough and gravelly not for low-lying cars but I don't think you would need four-wheel drive unless bad weather. But absolutely unbelievable place though

Bring air mattresses or hammocks, very stony.. all the natural elements aside, I loved my family's trip there! We picked a remote camping spot in the back of the site and everything was *PERFECT*****

Great float on the Current River to two rivers anytime of the year. These were taken February 2023.

Great spot, it’s secluded with a huge gravel bar to set up campers. Gravel is soft, definitely need front wheel or 4 wheel drive. Nice swimming and fishing holes.

Beautiful, beautiful place. FREE!! PACK IN/PACK OUT!! I enjoyed the seclusion and privacy. Extremely short walk to the river from my camp. The river is clear and not too deep. Gravel bank to the river, was only myself on. The flies are very horrible. I drove my Saturn SUV. No problems on the 7 mile gravel road. US Park Service personally came to inform me about severe weather coming in. Rained for 3 days. Other than that I WILL RETURN SOON!!

Update: It's April 9th-12th, 2023, I finally returned to find lots of renovations to the campground. They have removed lots of trees and bushes for 3 gravel parking pads, 3 lantern post, and 3 fire pits.😩... Not so remote now. Don't get me wrong , it's still a great place to camp, but now your closer to other campers. We had the campground to ourselves for 3 days then a few people showed up to hike. These are current ( no pun intended) pictures of Jerktail Landing. If you would like to see the before campground renovations check out my YouTube channel under Jerktail Landing.
