Thunder Rock Campground

Very clean campground. Loved the site, will be back!

The campground itself was lovely as always. There were some maintenance issues in the women's restroom that I attribute to lack of a campground host. One sink was draining very slowly, and the other sink had a broken handle for the hot water faucet. Some people used the handle anyway, and the water would not shut off and there was no one around to ask for help in stopping the water from running. Despite this, it was still a pleasant camping experience.

Well-kept clean campground. Easy to find and close to lots of recreation choices. We were very close to the bathhouse, which was clean and in good working order. There was a bench in the shower stalls so you can keep your things dry. Hot showers and good water pressure. Overall, great experience and would go again.

This is my second time here and it’s an awesome campground. Easy access to so much to do on the river. I do wish there were a playground but it was still awesome.

I have been camping at Thunder Rock for many years, and overall it remains one of my favorite places to camp. The campground is beautiful, the location is outstanding, and it is hard to beat being right on the river. Unfortunately, this year's experience raised some serious concerns about campground management and more importantly camper safety. One issue was the apparent lack of on-site oversight. During our stay there was not a full-time campground host available. My greatest concern involves camper safety. On the evening of 2 August, at least two campsites flooded after water levels rose significantly. I have never seen the water release so high. I was camping at Site 10 and the water came within about a foot of the wooden boarder. Two neighboring campsites were completely flooded with several inches of standing water, forcing campers to scramble to move equipment and deal with rising ware in the dark. What troubled me most is that no one from the Forest Service came through to warn campers. Had we received advance notice many of us could have moved vehicles, equipment and personal belongings before flooding occurred. Providing timely warnings to campers about known or anticipated flooding conditions should be a fundamental safety responsibility. The lack of communications placed campers and their property at unnecessary risk. I sincerely hope campground management reviews its emergency notification procedures and develops a process to campers whenever elevated water releases or flooding conditions are expected. Doing so would greatly improve safety while preserving what is otherwise one of the Tennessee's premier campgrounds. I fully intend to return because I truly enjoy Thunder Rock but I also hope these safety concerns are addressed before another incident occurs.

Beautiful campground, not at all what I expected....please put in more electric sites...

This is a nice quiet place to spent the night. Only one campsite with electricity, we were able to reserve it and loved the stay! Our camper is a 34' trailer; it's a little tight getting it in there but doable. Would definitely stay there again!

Nice clean campground

Great spot, nice shady spots, riverside camping, swimming and play is excellent. And can get in right at camp to paddle the Ocoee!

Stayed over the 4th of July weekend. Everything was good at the campsite. Bath house was clean and in good working condition. Camp hosts were friendly. No cell service which should be no surprise given where the campground is located. It was a good reason to disconnect and play games instead. Will be back soon!
