7. Thunder Rock Recreation Area

Reviewed By MelissaS165
It’s clean, small, quiet and accessible. I did read reviews of people unhappy about the road noise from RT 19 across the river however I thought is was minimal. I’m not the heaviest sleeper and I was not woken but the few cars/truck sounds. The site are good sized and the distance between each site was great- yes you had neighbors but there was space and even trees in between each site. These sites work great for hammock campers too.
