Thunder Rock Campground

This campground is a good one to visit for a quiet restful night. Thunder Rock Campground is 1.8 miles northwest of the Ocoee Whitewater Center. As such, It is a popular destination for whitewater and trail enthusiasts. This campground fills quickly with just 37 regular campsites and one group site. Thus, we suggest making reservations well in advance.  Enjoy access to the Tanasi Trail system, the Benton-McKaye Trail, and the Ocoee River. Certainly, there is something for everyone at Thunder Rock.

Camping Season

The campground is open from March to October. However, three sites remain open from November through March. Additionally, site amenities include picnic tables, grills, lantern posts, water hydrants, a bathhouse with flush toilets and warm showers, and a campground host. Each site accommodates up to five people and two vehicles. Quiet hours are from 10 pm to 6 am. Pets must be kept on a leash. Discharging firearms and fireworks, and possession of alcohol are all prohibited. SO this is a good place for a quiet nights rest next o the Ocoee River.

Campfires

For the safety of both visitors and the environment, it is important to remember the “Don’t Move Firewood” rule. Forest pests can hitchhike on firewood. And invasive insects and diseases can threaten our native trees and forests! Leave firewood at home and use only local sources of firewood, and burn it all if you bring it into the forest.

Overall, Thunder Rock Campground is a great destination for whitewater and trail enthusiasts alike. With its convenient location, great amenities, and commitment to safety, it is easy to see why it is a popular destination. Make reservations well in advance for peak rafting season
