What Guests Are Saying
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.

Plaskett Creek is an excellent campground for anyone looking for a quiet, peacefully and incredibly beautiful place. We like tent camping and the grassy areas all around allow for wonderful natural padding. Good long tables with extensions for your camp stove and fire rings make it more enjoyable. 10 minute walk to a spectacular sunset over the bluffs, and another 10 minutes a often empty beach. California camping at its finest
