First - the weather was perfect. It was a nice drive up from where we live in SLO County. The campground was quiet and serene - just what we needed for a few days of rest and reading. It was nice to ride my bike to the end of the road without any traffic. The campground hosts were nice, bathrooms clean; it was a great time to be at Placket.

Campground staff was very helpful combining a three day stay at three campsites into one campsite.
Facilities are clean and the view is great!

This campground is by far one of my favorites, no wonder it’s so hard to get a reservation. Not only is it located in one of the most beautiful parts of the world, Big Sur, it is right across highway 1 from a beach. The campsite also had amazing hosts, Molly and Jeff. They are were super friendly and I can’t thank them enough for jumping my car when the battery died. 10/10 experience!
