There is not much privacy at the campground and the parking is not spacious. But it’s close to the beach cross the street, the scenery is just phenomenal

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.

Site was beautiful as always. Camp hosts were kind and accommodating. Although the toilets weren’t working, there were plenty of portable toilets and they were serviced when we were there, making for a better experience.

Our site was near the portable toilets which was great for traveling with kids and my grandparents. Unfortunately, our site on a hill which made the sleeping arrangements difficult. We were tilted while sleeping. The location of this camp area was great only an hour away from several great trails. Also, the site said shade there was no shade for us but luckily it was pretty cloudy while we were there. I would recommend not to forget any important essentials the closest market is Gorda Market, and they charge you an arm and leg for basic necessities.
