Snow Camp is an unincorporated community in Alamance County, North Carolina, United States.

The origin of the name of the community is disputed, but the most commonly accepted story as to how the name came about was that before the American Revolution a group of hunters from Pennsylvania camped there during a snowfall.

The lesser accepted story is that General Cornwallis camped there during a snowfall around the time of the Battle of Guilford Court House.

The Regulator Movement culminated in the Battle of Alamance prior to the Revolutionary War.

[citation needed] Snow Camp was also a site of early Quaker settlement in North Carolina, as Friends from Pennsylvania migrated to the Cane Creek valley in the mid-1700s and established the Spring Meeting at Snow Camp; several historic buildings clustered around the spring remain from that settlement.
