Since 1967, Tamworth Camping Area has been welcoming
families like yours to the best in New Hampshire
camping. From weekend tent sites thru seasonal sites,
we’ve got what it takes to make the perfect camping
vacation. Choose from water & electric campsites, either
along or nearby the Swift River, or full hookup sites
further into the woods or in the open. All of our
campsites are large, level, wooded and privately spaced.
We also offer an outstanding choice of group camping
options for organized groups of adults or supervised
youth groups, including a 2-acre grassy safari field
with views of Mt. Chocorua and water and direct electric
hook-ups for 20 trailers, with no size limit on RV

even larger groups. A second group camping option is
available in our Meadow Tenting Area, a beautiful meadow
filled with wild blueberries and open views of Mt.
Whittier and the Ossipee Mountains, set against a
backdrop of tall pines. We can accommodate organized
camping groups varying in size from 10 individuals to
large trailer clubs. We also provide group day use
facilities, centered around our large field and adjacent
