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.

A single campsite next to us had three vehicles initially which later turned into four. Counted at least 15 campers in site. Nothing enforced by Host or Park Rangers as far as 2 vehicles max and 8 campers max. Bathroom was overran

We had a wonderful time at Plaskett Campground. The hosts were fantastic and gave us lots of information about nearby activities. The bathrooms were flush toilets and very clean and spacious, which made changing after spending time at the beach much easier. Because of recent flooding the trail to Sand Dollar Beach was damaged and a little bit difficult to get to due to the 1-3 foot deep trenches that got cut into it. But its do-able. The campsite is beautiful and well maintained with lots of nearby wildlife.

Camped in June 2023. Great camp hosts. Mike and Punky were super accommodating and nice. Came by and checked on us and visited. Nice campground, good facilities. There is one threaded spigot in the campground just in case that’s how you fill up your camper. No phone service except for one small area at front gate. Very close to the Sand Dollar beach. Overall great!
