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.

Love Plaskett Creek. Always great. Sand dollar beach across highway. Jade cove. Hiking on the bluffs or creek. Sitting around the fire at night. Big campsites not crowded together. Great camp hosts.

It's a very nice campground. Very clean and organized. The only negative is that buying firewood from the host it is extremely expensive (15$ per bundle). The most expensive firewood I have ever bought in a campground.

The only reason I took it down 1 star is because of the space to park. The campground is beautiful and well worth the stay but if you have anything bigger than a 22' travel trailer you're going to struggle to get into each camping space. We were barely able to get our 22' maneuvered in but once we were there we appreciated the grounds. Very green and lush.

Wonderful area. The campground was quiet and peaceful. The camp host was so attentive and kept the grounds looking great. Bathrooms were clean and smelled fresh. The trash was emptied frequently. This camp host was on it!
The area is amazing. Lots of nice hikes. A wonderful short hike to the cliffs to watch the sunset over the ocean
