Our experience at Plaskett Campground was amazing. This was our first time camping here and in Big Sur in general, so we were not sure what to expect. We were new to the area and lucky to have such a great campsite host Adri.
Adri told us all the beautiful sights and places to see. She was very courteous by saying hi when she was performing her rounds and continuously asked if we needed anything. We have camped in many locations in California and other cities, we have not received this type of treatment in a long time. Thank you for the great experience and we look forward to visiting the campsite in the fall.
