Our company started in 1978 as a family-run operation, and still running strong today. Guests love our rough cut, hand-constructed outpost/store located along Hwy 64 just outside of the Cherokee National Forest and Chilhowee Mtn. Our goal is that every guest of Cherokee Rafting will leave with the desire to return with family and friends. We specialize in all sizes and types of groups, including: church youth and young-at-heart groups, association groups like scout troops and rotary clubs, in addition to business team-building groups. « less

This was my third trip to the ocoee with Cherokee Rafting. I love all the guides. They are all truly experienced rafters. The guides are also very funny while guiding us. I wish I could go every weekend!!

I have gone rafting a few times before with other companies, and I have always had good experiences. Cherokee rafting, however, is a notch above all of those other companies. Our guide was excellent. She was funny, personable, and definitely knew what she was doing. The rafting trip made for an excellent bachelor party activity.

Yes, it isn't a typical Bachelor Party venue, but we can honestly say that what it lacked in some aspects, it made up for it in others, like action and excitement. The folks at Cherokee Rafting did a fantastic job. Equipment was first rate, safety orientation was concise and well delivered, our guide did a great job telling us about... More

I am an experienced paddler and have been down the Ocoee River many times in a canoe & countless times in a raft. My most recent rafting trip was with my church's men's group (it's an annual trip) & this was the first time we've used Cherokee Rafting. Without a doubt this was the greatest trip I've ever experienced on... More

The hard working girls from Mcduffie Animal Hospital wanting to go rafting and Cherokee Rafting made it a trip of thier lifetime. Everyone put thier special touch to make the trip extra fun, while safety was still number 1. My only complaint is Cherokee did such a great job, that now I will have to make this an annual trip...

Our youth group and I rafted the Middle Ocoee with Cherokee this past weekend. This was my third trip with them. Every trip has been wonderful. The guides are friendly and well-trained. They work hard to make the trip safe and enjoyable. The company has some of the best prices on the river. I was especially impressed when I called... More

Went rafting with my wife who had never been and had a great time with Cherokee Rafting. I had been there before about 10 years ago. They are still the best in the area and from what I could tell have the best price. Their guides are very experienced and know the river. We had three couples in the raft... More

Our trip down the Ocoee was a blast! I can't imagine a better guide than Alycia. Not only does she know every rock in the river, she knows how to make a trip really fun. We showed up, got geared up, and were in the water in no time. Great day!

I took my family on the middle Ocoee with Blake and had a fantastic time. This was the perfect combination of rough whitewater and scenery. We will use Cherokee Rafting again and again and already recommend them to others.
