About this campground
A historic Lowcountry cottage house serves as the park's visitor center. Visitors can enjoy museum exhibits, film options, Jr. Ranger program, and obtain park and local area information and orientation. Property owner William Mathews constructed the house ca. 1828 on the foundations of the Pinckney house. The house retained its characteristics through subsequent owners until Thomas Ewing bought Snee Farm in 1936. Thomas and Anna Ewing added two one-story rear (north) wings in 1936.
