This is a beautiful area. We enjoyed biking up Highway 1. We have solar panels on the RV. The host let us move to a sunny spot for the last two days (of four).

This is a beautiful, well maintained campground with great hosts. However, the water was off in the bathroom sinks and dishwashing areas.
Sand Dollar day use area is practically across the road and is a must see. It would be nice if there was a trail to it where you didn’t have to walk on the highway. If the water was on in the bathrooms (portability issues) it’s a five star experience.

This was our 1st time at Plaskett Creek CG. We stayed in site 7. This is a beautiful location and a quiet campground (I would estimate the campground was 3/4 full). We loved this location and campground so much that we are returning in a few months!

Plaskett has always been my favorite local campground, I have been going there for more than 30 years. I hate the online reservation game that has to be played though. The hosts were very pleasant and the grounds and bathrooms were very clean.
