Mousetail Landing State Park is a 1247-acre (5.05 km2) state park located on the eastern bank of the Tennessee River in Perry County Tennessee near Linden. The park was established in 1986 making it one of the more recent additions to the Tennessee State Parks system. The name is thought to have been derived from an event during the American Civil War in which a tannery located at a river landing on the site of the present day state park caught fire.
