Jeffrey’s land was a great spot after some long days in Hot Springs. You’re out in the woods and only 25 minutes from Hot Springs. Easy to find. Gulpha Gorge campground in Hot springs is a tight little campground, a little close for us.

Old Bear Campground 1
It’s a pretty basic plot. It wasn’t bad. There was plenty of room for multiple tents and I found a hammock spot. There are lots of thorns in the tree line but it didn’t interfere with tenting. Firewood was kindly given for no charge. Overall, if your looking for a campsite as your passing through, not bad.

A nice level spot great for pitching a tent. Spots were well spaced so we were not crowded by neighboring campers. Jeffrey provided firewood for the duration of our stay so that was a big plus. A short drive away from lake Ouachita and Hot Springs. We enjoyed our stay and had a great time exploring the surrounding areas!

Jeff has a great spot for camping. Plenty of shade and sun. We had a lot of room to set up, park, and chill around a fire. Jeff provided us with a huge stack of wood and was very friendly.

Great location for tent camping! Quiet seclusion, but still a short drive from town. Pet friendly. Provided firewood is a much appreciated bonus. Great value!
