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.

Beautiful campground, excellent host. If you’re a guy, don’t forget to bring your own soap for the bathhouse. None provided for hand washing. Bring earplugs for sleeping. Some groups stay pretty loud

Lovely sites at a small, scenic area. Does not appear to have much monitoring or maintenance, and we showed up to our reserved site to have a squatter there who was so bold he first tried getting us to “share” with him, then he next tried getting us to instead take another site — which was reserved for someone else. It’s not like he had camp set up, just some clothes on a clothesline, so we booted him, and he went and squatted at the other reserved site. The trash cans were emptied but the ladies’ vault toilet had no paper. Didn’t take a shower but the ladies’ side was reasonably clean but the men’s side was very dirty. Will definitely camp there again, though. We don’t need much for facilities, and the campground was beautifully scenic and quiet (except for nearby roadway noise that can’t be helped) and very reasonably priced.

Clean bath house, clean campground. There was plenty of firewood available.

Clean and well maintained. Great trail system. The only downside is the noise from the highway which the river mostly drowns out.

We had sites 1, 2, and 3. The gravel pads are nice for water drainage, but not good for securing tent stakes. There was no dirt under the gravel. Came back to camp on day 2 and our tent door was open. Someone must have wanted to check out our set up. The site was clean, bathrooms were clean, fire pit was clean. Sites 1-3 were too close to the general parking lot. Will be back, but will be further back in the park.

campsite was nice and by a a river, but on the other side of river there is a highway, so you hear a lot of car noise.
