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.

we had an absolutely amazing time at the group sites. the sites were clean upon arrival and Michael and Punky were immensely helpful in making our stay a great one. they were super attentive to trash and bathrooms and welcomed us with open hearts and friendly smiles. can't thank them enough for helping us create an incredible event.

Beautiful campground with close walking access to Sand Dollar Beach, fun surf & beautiful sunsets. We also road our bikes into Gorda, it was a pleasant ride, say hi to John if you stop by the store! A short hike up the dirt fire road south of camp gets you cell service

We love this campground. I especially like riding my bike to the end of the road without much traffic because of the landslide closure. It's just far enough away that it's not too far.

Campground hosts were very nice. They kept the place clean. Even though there’s no water in the bathrooms to wash your hands, they kept the bathrooms very clean. Super nice place to camp, but I don’t recommend anybody else going there. The reason is I wanna make sure I can find a spot the next time I go :)

Clean and beautiful campsite located between the ocean and the mountain.
Some of the toilets are flush-type.
