Family owned campground since 1954. I've been camping on Gardner Lake for over 50 years and Sna-Z Spot Campground is the most private and peaceful campground on the lake. If you enjoy nature, making new friends, peace and quiet, then Sna-Z Spot is the place for you!

We had a fun day with friends. It was nice being somewhere in 4th of July that was not crowded. I wish they had electricity and running water though.

I grew up camping there from 1968 until 1986, I wouldn't trade those years for anything in the World❣️ Yes, it's rustic but face it it's real camping, not a pull in plug in place. As kids we used our imaginations. My mother would even put the headlights of her car on a storage building across the side road and would teach us Shadow Puppets. If you wanted power for certain times we had a car battery to hook up and give us lights in the camper. We used old kerosene lanterns. I wish I had them now. Back then the owners were Helen and her Pete and I think it was her sister had the liquor store and shop before Gondon's Store, They were really nice people. They used to have a Democratic Party down near the lake every year. It was in mid August around my birhhday on the 19th. It was awesome. Everyone in the campground was invited! I think it was Then their was Leece's meats and restaurant/ sub shop. I have more wonderful memories there and would love to bring my granddaughter there for a summer!!! I remember the owners daughters riding the horses and letting them cool off in the lake. We were there from the day school got out until maybe 5 days before school started. I would love to know if they ARE OPEN, and if anybody rentts their camper out for the summer? I live in SC now but it would be well worth the trip. I don't need to spend goobs of money in Myrtle Beach or Charleston. I would rather give my granddaughter an experience she won't forget, besides learning a few survsl skills! It might come in handy in the future, and won't,t hurt her that's for sure. UNPLUG PEOPLE and truly relax❣️
