It’s a beautiful location with friendly staff. My only complaint is the lack of water in the restroom sinks.

Summary
Plaskett Creek Campground offers a beautiful, peaceful setting just a short walk from Sand Dollar Beach, making it a great spot for camping. Many visitors praised the friendly camp hosts and the spacious, scenic environment, ideal for families and pets. However, the campground faces criticism due to the lack of potable water and restroom facilities, with porta potties being the only option, which some found unsatisfactory.

The beach is small and not dog-friendly. The folks working there didn't know of other dog-friendly trails.

What an amazing little gem in an already beautiful place! We are cyclists and like to ride gravel so this was right ON the “Lost Roads of Big Sur” gravel route! It was awesome. Clean and quiet! If you have a small campervan - site 10 is the best.

The campground host was so helpful, accommodating and present. The grounds & facilities were clean, spacious and so dark and quiet at night that it was one of our best star viewing stays. A short walk on paths to the ocean cliffs across the road allowed for viewing of sea otters at Jade Cove, Pelicans from Mill Creek to Sand Dollar Beach and whale watching everywhere. A short walk and path with stairs down to Sand Dollar Beach gives you a beautiful stretch of beach and waves crashing against rocks & churning blue around them. Sunset views are good from anywhere with an incredible view from the Forest Service Road just above the campground. I stayed late in February.
