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.

This camping site was my one of the finest decision ever make for camping. The site number 11 was very comfy and easy access to restroom and the site manager Michael and his wife. They are very very helpful and super friendly as well as share information for things to do in there.
Also, this camping area has some good quick stopped areas to see great views.
Definitely 5 stars for camping.

the host is very friendly. campsite is very close to a beach and a few trails. u may or may not (depending on the location of ur spot) have a very tiny view of the ocean from ur spot. none of the spots r completely flat. toilets were clean but 3 out of 8 toilets were closed (with no sign on them) and none of the toilets had water in the sink to wash ur hands.

Great place to be with access to Sand Dollar Beach and bluffs trails. Good camping sites with trees and grass. Campground hosts were helpful and friendly. Bathrooms were clean.
