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.

Great location. However, due to its remoteness, it's a free-for-all as far as lack of rule enforcement and what to expect from those you are camping nearby. Be wary.

Campground is ok. Really far from everything and look out for ticks at nearby beaches. Camp ground and the closest gas station only takes cash so don’t depend on using your card in a pinch. No cell service. No working sinks in bathrooms, they are all turned off. Bring your own portable shower. Skunks run the campground at night. Lock all your food in your car.
