What Guests Are Saying
Thunder Rock Campground features friendly and helpful hosts, a clean bathhouse, and a great location for outdoor activities like paddling and biking. Many campers appreciate the serene atmosphere by the Ocoee River, with well-maintained sites and good facilities. However, some sites may flood during heavy rain, and there are occasional issues with road noise and amenities like hand soap in the bathrooms that could be improved.

Thunderrock is an OK campground.
But the road in and out, and within the campground, is terrible. I drive a small economy car, and if I'm not really careful, it bottoms out on the rocks on the way in and out. I had a couple of times with a hard hit, even driving carefully, that I feared would damage the undercarriage of my car.
Walking around the campground at night is hazardous, because it's easy to miss one of the potholes in the road and fall. Even if you don't, they're deep enough to soak your shoes when they're full of water.

From what we was told.....it was good for kids. It wasn't. Also we was told we would have electric,water and sewage and we didn't so we left after the second day. Didn't stay the five days we was supposed to stay.

We had nice time here! The trail to the Whitewater Center is great for a causal walk/hike. It would be a perfect campground for a base camp for rafting/kayaking the Ocoee River. There are also fantastic mountain biking trials via the Tanasi trail system that’s accessible from the Whitewater. Center.
The campground loop is gravel over old pavement. It’s good for kids with bikes, but wouldn’t be good for scooters/training wheels.

Nice place to visit in late fall. Not busy and you have the place to yourself. Always clean and well kept. Keep in mind there is NO cell service there so you are off the grid.
