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.

Stayed in campsite number 30 when we arrived. It was not clean, but we were able to empty out the ashes from the fire pit. There was no official camp host like during our previous trips. There were a lot of people for the holiday weekend one of the biggest issues we had after camping here Several times was that there was no one constantly cleaning the restrooms and at one point only one restroom was open for the south side of the campsites overall would return, but I'm hoping that they will get someone that will clean, especially during busy weekend.

The camp host is amazing--so kind and conscientious. And the campsite is of course beautiful.
