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 camp hosts were so kind and respectful. There's lots of space in the campgrounds, and they were clean. Bathrooms were clean too, flush toilets. No running water in the bathroom faucets this time of year so plan accordingly. There is potable running water dispersed around the campground.

Great campground and fantastic hosts! We were met by friendly hosts upon our arrival. The facilities and grounds were very clean. The location was easy to get to, despite PCH being closed from the north. Mostly cliff views and few beach access spots. Such a beautiful area! We had a great experience and would stay again.

Overall, my experience with the Recreaton.gov sight was good. The site was relatively easy to navigate and make reservations on . Unfortunately, only some some sites had photos but not all , including the one we initially reserved. The site did not have more than one level site fora tent. Fortunately, the campground wasn’t full and we were able to relocate to a site that worked well for three tents.
