Had an amazing experience water rafting thanks to Wilson! He definitely made the experience fun and he made us feel safe. None of us fell off but we did jump off a couple times just for fun! Definitely recommend!

My family and I had a blast conquering the rapids with our guide Carl. They told us exactly what we needed to do to have a fun and safe time, good vibes all around. Carl is the best!

Had a great time with our guide Isaiah. He had us doing things no other raft was doing while still keeping us safe the entire time. We were the only raft to surf hells hole. If you want the best ocoee experience this is the company for you.

Been a couple times now with different companies. Ocoee Watersports is by far the best. Small local company, not all the garbage with big companies that’s been bought out from far off. Very knowledgeable guides. Definitely coming back to Ocoee water sports, Wilson is wild and a great damn time.

Went rafting today with beans as our tour guide and we had an absolute BLAST. I could not have hoped for a more fun experience. If you want to really experience the river at its full potential I recommend this company hands down!

I got the 10 mile trip as an early 50th birthday gift, and it was the BEST! Terry was our guide for our tiny group of two, and while my friend has rafted before, this was my first time, and it was GREAT! Terry spun and twirled us down rapids and we managed not to flip or fall out! Directions were clear and concise and our trip was super fun. I think we got significantly more river time and fun than some of the bigger outfitters, and going with these cool shabby (in the best way possible) dudes gave us tons of personal attention and river tricks. I’m ready to come back, and we have already gotten friends booked next week to try this out! Great time on the river!

Our guide Zak was absolutely incredible! He was super knowledgeable when it came to the different parts of the river and the sport in general. He was very considerate when to came to my health issues, making sure to check in on me without restricting my experience. He's also very fun to talk to. A great experience overall

Wow! This was our first time whitewater rafting and we have caught the bug. It was a ladies trip and Callie guided me and four preteen girls through the middle Ocoee. Callie knows this river! It was obvious from the answers she had for my questions before I bought 3 of my daughter’s friends to TN for this bday adventure. She also shared a lot about the history of the river and the dam. Callie had us paddling to the best spots to get the most bang for the ride. The true thrill seeker in the group shrieked through every rapid. Everyone is ready to invite all the moms next year to do the full river ride. I am so looking forward to having Callie encourage the young ladies and keep us safe.
Alex has a special place here where you feel safe and encouraged. This was a big adventure for us and the fact that everyone felt safe to take some risk (and I felt great about the care and guidance provided to the girls in my care) makes Ocoee Watersports a place I can see retiring to many times in the future.
Thank you Callie, Alex and Sebastian for such an awesome afternoon. Give Elvis a big pet for me!

I booked this trip for my kids and I not knowing at all what to expect since it was our first time rafting. These guys made us feel right at home and gave us one of the funnest experiences we’ve ever had! Sure it was nerve racking a few times but our guide Isaiah Brown had us full of excitement and laughing all the way through. Couldn’t have asked for a better time and memories! Thank you Ocoee water sports and Isaiah!

We ran the Middle Ocoee with Isaiah as our guide. It was my first time whitewater rafting. Expectations were blown out of the water!! Isaiah made the entire trip memorable with his professionalism, knowledge, and passion for what he does. He kept it entertaining and made us feel comfortable and prepared for each moment of the trip. The owner, Alex, and other team members were very hospitable as well. 11/10. We will be back to do more runs with Ocoee Watersports!!

Isaiah Brown is a tamer of the waves.
It was my first time water rafting and I could not have asked for a better company to do it with. Every staff member was down to earth and relatable. They were also going above and beyond at every step to ensure safety and enjoyment for us all. It was impressive to see the team come together to cater for literally all ages (we had a younger family, and the two of us 25 year olds).
I felt that Isaiah was not only experienced but so happy to share the passion. We were able to have a better time because he was so daring and experimental and safe all at once.
There is no other answer when it comes to white water rafting in TN but this company.

Isaiah is an awesome guide!
If you got him you’re in for a sick ride and some fun swims
If you want some adrenaline this is the company for you.
The other tour companies will go down the recommended route.
Isaiah and the Ocoee Watersports team takes you down the best route.
Remember to tip him so he can go to Africa!

I’ve been an avid paddler for many years and regularly kayaking or raft myself. On a rare occasion (when wanting to take nervous people/1st timers) I will use a commercial outfitter. With over 100 total trips down the Ocoee River, I can say without a doubt that Alex Storgion and Isaiah Brown are the crème-de-la-crème of guides. They can make the trip fun and memorable for 1st timers and the seasoned vets alike. Could not ask for a better group of guys. More than highly recommended.

These guys are so great. Super nice, chill, knowledgeable and well experienced!
If you book a trip with them expect a great time. The boats are a very unique and a fun size to get to enjoy the Ocoee in a different way than most outpost.
Highly recommend this company.

We had the immense pleasure last week to take a summer pause and go white water rafting with Alex and Ocoee Watersports. As soon as we arrived at Ocoee Watersports, we were welcomed like family. They got us set up with equipment, a short ride to the river, followed by safety checks and instructions. Alex and his team made us feel very comfortable, safe, and excited for fun on the river. Our river run was exceptional. Alex is a phenomenal guide. It has become our favorite of all of our rafting trips and we can't wait to come back. It's a perfect way to disconnect from the busy world and have some fun with some of the best guides in the business.
Let's go!

I have been a whitewater enthusiast for over 25 years and these are the folks that I trust to get the most for rafting. They are knowledgeable and skilled and are safe but can also make your trip really spicy if you like. They don't rush the trips like some of the other outfitters and will definitely make your trip fun and memorable!

Ocoee watersports is hands down the best rafting company on the Ocoee River! Having gone down the Ocoee river many times with other companies, there is no company as fun to go with than Ocoee waterports. Alex, Chris and the rest of the guides there make you feel like family. While other companies make you feel like your going to a fast food joint, Ocoee watesports makes you feel like your going to an Italian restaurant with your family. I could not say enough great things about them.

I have gone whitewater rafting with Alex from Ocoee Watersports every year for the last 4 years with friends and family. Alex has always been a great rafting guide. Always made sure we were safe, informed us of what to expect, respectful, and very knowledgeable of his craft. It's always a thrill ride and adventure with him. The other guides that work here are also very knowledgeable of the rapids and give you the best time of your life and thrill you are looking for. I will be back again this July for another great time.

★★★★★ Just finished an epic white water adventure at Ocoee water sports and it was absolutely thrilling! The rapids were extreme, heart-pounding, and pushed me to my limits, but the guides made it feel safe every step of the way. Professional, fun, and unforgettable—highly recommend this wild ride! I definitely will be back with more friends and family. Thanks again guys!
