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.

We had camp site number 6. It is nicely arranged, a green lawn, benches with a table, a place for a campfire and a barbecue. The only thing is that the surface for setting up the tent is a little uneven.

Nice campground. Roads need some work. Camp Host could not have been more helpful and accomodating.

Very beautiful and clean campground! Lots of places to explore nearby. Sand Dollar Beach is a short walk/hike down. Just make sure you plan according to the tide schedule. We went during the time of day when the tide was high. Would recommend you go when the tide is low. We stayed at campsite 24 and it was very spacious. Water spigot and bathrooms were closeby. Will definitely be coming back.

Camphost was on point. Firewood
for purchase seemed to be a rip-off. A lot of children were present on the grounds, but they seemed to respect quiet hours. Bring earplugs if you want to sleep in. Can't beat this killer location!
