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.

The roads were closed from North and also the website didn’t make it very clear which route is open.
There was no bear box and the site was not maintained. The wild grass on the campsite made the surface uneven.
The table at our site was very dirty.

Have been camping here for decades. Pretty great campground though some sites are near the highway and the group sites are right behind some sites which can get pretty noisy. Lots of dogs running off leash and the hosts do nothing about it. Have had some nice hosts here though there was a pretty grumpy maintenance guy last time.

Great location. Clean grounds. Bathroom sinks we’re inoperable.

very cool place, best camping experience I have ever had. It is close to the sea but not windy at all.
