I know that "they" say "the third time is a charm"...but I'm here to dispute that the second time can be a charm as well! This is my second experience with Ocoee Adventure Center's White Water Rafting, and it was again...and exhilarating experience. The first time I went with my BFF in the summer, and this time...I attended on the... More

We rafted the "Middle Ocoee" River on Sat. Oct. 29, 2011. Our guide's name was Joey and he was great! They do not allow children under 12, fyi. Autumn had set in but our run was at 1:30 so everything was as warm as it was going to get. The office instructed us how to dress and how not to... More

I was properly scared while heading towards the place to do rafting first time in my life. However, as soon as we put the raft on the water and our guide started explaining and helping I knew there was going to be no problems. Professional and very kind guides, amazing nature, one of the best days of my life. I... More

My family of 8 had an awesome trip. Our guide spared no adventure going through rapids...sometimes twice.... that others only skirted. We surfed the hydrolics and got soaking wet at every opportunity. The Ocoee River is one of my favorite travel spots and Ocoee Adventure Center gave us a spectacular ride. Good, clean accomodations. highly recommend. Be sure your camera... More

We had a total blast with our trusty guide Paige. The equipment appeared to be in better shape than some of the other outfitters that we encountered out on the river. If you've never rafted before I suggest the you do the middle section to acclimate yourself and to see if this is an activity that you are going to... More

The young man (with the beard…sorry, his name eludes me right now) that provided safety instructions was very thorough and informative. My (hilarious)... More

Took my wife and two daughters on full day trip. It was fantastic. Mark really knows how to read the water. All guides are carefull and make sure everyone was safe. Also noticed that OAC goes out of it's way to "surf the hydraulics" unlike other rafting companies. Lunch was pretty good. Very professional and safety conscious guides. More

If you don't want to be scared to bits (see other rafting review - Ottawa river), but want to enjoy some rafting fun suitable for all experience levels - then this is the trip for you. The rapids are fun with a bit of excitement in the hydraulics. There is little effort required on your part as the river flows... More

Durring our recent vacation in NE GA, my son and I made reservations online then hubby looked up directions; however, he pulled up your competition up the road. Didn't realize the goof until 20 minutes prior to rafting time. We had spent 30+ minutes waiting around for the 'office' to open to check in then found out we were at... More
