I tried Tamworth Campground (now part of Modern America) for the 1st time with my husband on their opening weekend and lets just say we will be returning soon. Despite the weather and it being opening weekend we enjoyed it here. We are normally tent people but decided to rent their Jayco trailer and we really enjoyed it. For the most part it was clean only a few things I can recommend but I'll get to that(nothing major). The trailer was well stocked with all the kitchen essentials you need from kitchen cookware to hand towels and cleaning supplies it was a great touch.
The staff was all very friendly and I wish we got their names but I'm horrible with names so Ill get them next time. They inspect the rental with you to make sure you have everything you need and if anything is missing. The only thing we needed was food bedding and towels.
We don't have young kids but we have a grandson and so when we book we will bring him because he would have a blast at the playground and playing and fishing on the river. The water was very high because of the recent rain but we will be back to enjoy that for sure. The fire pits were great nice and big and you can even cook on them. Best firepits I seen a very long time and I travel all over NE to camp so that is a great thing as we are the type of people who love to cook on a fire.
Only thing I would recommend the staff to do is the following:
1: A Broom to keep in the camper - We are clean folks and would have swept through out the weekend and as we left but didn't have one. We did have cleaning wipes and stuff but not a broom.
2: Maybe some time soon get a new mattress. That mattress was not comfortable at all and even though it had a good wood support under the mattress the mattress itself forced you to roll towards the middle because there was no mattress support.
3: We used the heat because it was a rainy chilly weekend and when it clicked on it had a musky odor. I get it most campers do as they get older and have been sitting over the winter as I use to own one but there are ways to help that. I can see from the AC vents there might be a problem too. So my only recommendation would be to look into that.
Other than that thank you Tamworth Campground for giving us a new camping spot that is less than 1hr...
Read moreAnna Maria is a passive aggressive piece of work! I will use today as an example of many of our interactions this year. As a seasonal member, we have a gate key and we forgot it this week at home. Anna Maria this morning, made a point of letting us know that she was in the office early by coming out and getting a board and bringing it into the office. we then went to the gate and waited to be let in only to be left waiting because it was 15 minutes before the office opened. She clearly wanted us to know that she was there and that we would wait. This is one example of many that we have seen this year. Including speaking, derogatory of campers checking in for a short stay in front of us, arriving early, and being told that they would wait until the exact time that the campsite check-in time was. Leaving people in the parking lot when the campsites were clearly open. The campground has been empty most of the year. She regularly calls the police for nonexistent issues. There are constantly police on the Campground, which is not very relaxing. She uses a sickly sweet voice to your face, to the point of being nauseatingly fake about it , but is very nasty, truly a horrible human being. She is a control freak who in every way lets you know that she will be in control of things to the point of making people extremely uncomfortable. She has actually stated to campers that if people don’t like the way she does things they don’t have to come. And that she does not want them there. The camp is in a state of disrepair, including the bathrooms and the children’s playground, however, I can see this year that they have tried to make some improvements. The campground itself is lovely. It is a shame that we will not be coming back because of absolutely ignorant conduct, lack of professionalism, passive aggressive behavior by the people running the place. It has potential, but not when people like this will make people uncomfortable at every turn. What should’ve been a great first experience for seasonal camping has turned into feeling like you’re walking on eggshells the whole time that...
Read moreI have been coming here with my family since the early nineties. The previous owners were fantastic hosts with a beautiful place you felt like family there. Modern America is in their third season of owning this . Let me tell you things have changed . Mis management hiring young kids with no clue on how to run a campground. They turned behind the main gate into an old truck junkyard with buckets of oil trucks ripped apart crap everywhere. When it was mentioned to them that it was dangerous with all the kids around they told my long time seasonal friend to “leave if it bothers him” now here’s a guy that pays in full every year for the following season , and that’s how you treat him. The following year they hire some other guy who’s “23 with ten years management and heavy equipment experience “ yea those numbers didn’t jive. Guy could run the kubota my friend had to show him how to use it. During a couple of events last year there was literal poop on the floors no toilet paper , my neighbor said hey Mike no toilet paper and poop on floor on there Mike throws us a roll of toilet paper says here you go buddy. I paid for the 2025 season upfront over 4k but decided to leave along with about 8 other seasonals. My trailer was out on the 1st of June it’s been unplugged since last mid September . They charged me 3 bucks for electric that I haven’t been plugged into and 50 bucks for a key card deposit even though I said I was mailing them back. So petty they got my 4 grand no prorated refund but was told as soon as I pull my camper off site it’s “abandonment” and it’s theirs to take back. This place is horrible the new lady Anna Maria she’s a piece of work . Don’t leave a card on file you been warned . And it’s not just tamworth it’s most of the ones they...
