Company history
A long family business history from the “golden age of camping” to the present day
The history of the Tommolansalmi Holiday Centre dates back to the early 1970s, the “golden age of camping”, when the municipality of Mäntyharju decided to build a campsite in Tommolansalmi.
The area became privately owned in 1979, when Mr. Aaro Pulkka’s family bought the campsite business from the municipality. Since then, Tommolansalmi has been a 100% Finnish family business.
In the beginning, Tommolansalmi served mainly as an accommodation for campers. The first cottages built in the area were modest, but they met the demand of hikers. In addition to the cottages, a kiosk was built in the area, which initially had its own postal service, and letters leaving Tommolansalmi received their own postage stamp.
In 1985, Mr. Aaro Pulkka and Mrs. Raili Pulkka opened the Tommola Bar, which further complemented the range of services in the area.
A generational change was made in Tommolansalmi in 1992, when siblings Mrs. Eeva Leskinen and Mrs. Merja Perttola took over the operations and they started running the business instead of their parents.
Since then, the area has been developed in a more modern and diverse direction, and operations have expanded to year-round tourism services.
In addition, the kiosk got a new look and became an A-licensed summer restaurant.
Today, Tommolansalmi is a versatile resort and recreation place where Eeva and Merja warmly welcome you for a holiday!
