Our meadow in Friedrichshafen-Schnetzenhausen is a no-fuss overnight spot for self-sufficient campers, ideal for travelers passing through or for a few relaxing days in the Lake Constance region. Last-minute bookings are also welcome.

Important to note: Our site is not a traditional campground, but a simple, natural parking area with no infrastructure. There is no electricity, no water, no restroom, and no shower. This makes the site particularly suitable for guests who are looking for exactly that: a quiet place to stay, an easy arrival, and the ability to move on or explore the region without much hassle.

The meadow is situated in a quiet location on the edge of a residential area with a view of Lake Constance apple trees. The ground is mostly flat and natural, and each site is at least 8 x 9 meters in size. Access to the B31 federal highway is just a short drive away, making the site particularly convenient for travelers passing through or explorers who want to quickly head out in any direction.

Just about 3 km away is the “Alter Campingplatz” recreation area, featuring swimming, a beach café, SUP rentals, and picnic areas. Right next door is a unique, natural sandy beach. The Fischbach lake and outdoor pool are also nearby. The surrounding area is also well-suited for cyclists, hikers, motorcyclists, and visitors to Lake Constance.

Within walking distance are, among other things, the Hotel/Restaurant Krone with various recreational options, as well as the Old Pub, a bakery, and the “Vintage 1989” wine bar. A large supermarket about 1.9 km away rounds out the convenient location.

We place great importance on a simple and self-service process. Our guests should be able to arrive and depart without needing to coordinate on-site. After booking, you will receive all important information via email.

Since the campsite is located next to an apple orchard, you may occasionally see a small tractor driving nearby during the day. The meadow is regularly maintained.

After booking, you will automatically receive directions and additional information via email. If you do not receive this promptly, please contact us.

    We were very satisfied It was very quiet, the campsites were level, and it wasn't far to the bakery or into town.

    Alexander's parking spot is in a beautiful location. Communication and the entire process were top-notch. The only downside was the noise from the nearby highway, though it's ideal for travelers passing through.
