Free dispersed camping along Jellico Creek Road puts three sites within Daniel Boone National Forest, with the first and largest accommodating two groups at once. It's free. The site sits beside a small swimming hole with a rope swing, and the road has a 10-foot vehicle height limit, so larger RVs won't fit. Hikers and equestrian riders have trail access nearby. Campers exploring campgrounds around Jellico will find this one well-suited to those traveling light and looking for a no-fee overnight stop along the creek. Bring your own water supply, as there are no developed facilities on-site.
