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 34 was a good fit for our 23' travel trailer with enough level area to set up after disconnecting from truck. The walk down to the beach is maybe 5 min and this time of year we had big waves that scoured most of the sand away leaving millions of rounded stones and a bit tricky to walk on.

The scenery is amazing and the host and rangers were kind and attentive. Campsites were clean and tidy, potable water is a boon! The bathrooms were out of service and have been for awhile. It would be nice if flat spots were created for tent campers. It was very hard to find a spot for our tent at many of the sites.

The campground host was AWFUL. These people should not be campground hosts if they are this angry when people come to camp. They were extremely rude and seemed like they hated their job as a CAMPGROUND HOST. They should never host ever again.
