Driving directionsFrom Decatur: North on FM 730 for 10 miles, left on CR 2461 (Cottonwood Cemetery Road), at fork turn right on CR 2560 for 3 miles then left on FS 900 for 2 miles. TADRA Point Trailhead will be on the right.
The campground is accessible via FS Road 900, which appears to be unpaved. Access involves navigating through county roads (CR 2461 and CR 2560) in rural areas. Marked directions are available, but the terrain may pose challenges for larger vehicles.
