Campground Reviews

Jun 29, 2023
We love the Benbow KOA and it is definitely a 5 star location for us. However, the bathrooms could use some repairs and was surprised that after the morning cleaning, the toilet paper was not replenished. The showers were great! The arts and crafts were a big hit with my granddaughters and they are hoping to see Chloe again next year. They really loved her and she was so patient with them.

The kids looooved the craft time with Chloe. The grass was really dry at the campsites but we had a great time. The kids loved the pool, playground and basketball courts.

Benbow is our "home Campground". We like our stay with you. Very kind people at the stuff. Nice place at 76.

Campground was very clean. Neighbors partied until 1 am on Sunday night. Staff is sparse, no one checking on pool area because there were a few people with wine and champagne bottles. Kids jumping and running into the pool. Lots of gift items (souvenirs) in the store but not much of the supplies needed! The little train that went around the park carrying the children was going a bit to fast!

Great for families. Fully enjoyed our stay in a cabin. Loved the safe, self-contained feel of the campground for the kids. Just a great combination of amenities. Will definitely be back.

Stayed at KOA because it advertised having wifi. The WiFi was non existent. Needed to get online work done and was unable to. Would look for a different park next time.

Tri-plex with full Bath and shower..didn't have a tub. We called a head to inquire about a fire pit or grill. We were told that there was a shared grill for the 3 units that were attached and there was NOTHING so we had Nothing to cook on. A false wall in our unit 40-B was falling down and there were Earwigs and ants everywhere. The door had a gap @ bottom that let in light & air. NOT Worth the $$

Staff is always friendly and ready to help you in any way they can. Thanks for another fun weekend staff.

We had a great time. We had a premium rv site and cabin #48. Cabin #48 is in need of repairs. For what is charged per night, I think they could repair a few things. The micowave has been melted by something. The door didn't close and the display (on/off) didn't work at all. The counter had formica chunks missing. The cabin just looks very tired.

Clean, nice location, friendly staff, the downside is there are no firepits, only 1 community one with no firewood to use.

Women's restroom was gross. Staff said, Our maid did feel good, so I guess they didn't get cleaned". That's not a guest's problem

We enjoyed our stay here, restrooms were big and clean. The spaces were large. The staff was friendly and it was right off the road. Good for us to continue driving up to the redwoods and through avenue of the giants.

Very friendly staff and easy to get to. Definitely would recommend that people visit the Benbow Inn. We enjoyed the small town of Miranda and had a wonderful mean at the Avenue restaurant.

Enjoyed our stay. The pool and hot tub area were well maintained and the staff were polite and helpful.

Visiting grandchildren. Pool and hot tub were wonderful. Cabin was just fine but, for approximately $300/ night, its interior is beyond ready for an upgrade.

What was the $5 fire fee for? I stayed there on 5/29/23 and didn't pay it.

We spent 2 nights at Benbow KOA in June 2023. Check in was easy and routine. Office staff was very friendly. Site was clean and nice sized and utilities good. Great Pool and Hot Tub. Nice Laundry Room. Family Friendly Park.

Awesome - will be back! Beautiful. Cabin 37 location and layout was perfect for us (two adults each with a 5/6 year old). Kids loved the playground and the river. This cabin had a few things to pick on: Stove takes a long time to get hot, difficult to cook on. Kitchen faucet is wonky - hard to figure out hot water setting. Bathtub plug was missing. Bed could use an upgrade (saggy in middle).

It was a nice clean Campground would definitely recommend it to camp at

I LOVE Benbow KOA. It's just getting to EXPENSIVE. Next time I come to visit my grandkids will look for more reasonable lodging

ALWAYS A PLEASURE TO STAY AT BENBOW KOA. VERY CLEAN AND THE HOSTS ARE OUTSTANDING. A GREAT PLACE TO STAY ON YOUR TRIP NORTH OR SOUTH ON HWY 101. THE KIDS HAVE PLENTY TO DO WITH POOL AND WATERPARK AND BARREL RIDES, ALSO ACTIVITIES FOR TEENS.

I love staying here it's easy to get a room and a nice little quiet place to sleep. Hot tub and snacks closes at 6pm but still one of the best places to stay in Garberville

Great spot. Nice facilities, great staff and fun golf course. This place has everything a family could want for a little getaway. The golf course is fun. A bit challenging but fun for all ages. Looking forward to visiting again.

We stayed at the Benbow KOA for spring break 2024. The staff is super helpful and friendly. Check-in was a breeze. Since it was Easter weekend, the campground staff hosted an egg hunt for the kids with an appearance from the Easter Bunny. It was pretty awesome! We stayed in a FHU “comfort” patio site 52, with relatives staying in Tent Site T1, right across the road from our site. The RV site required minimal leveling and all hookups were well maintained. The site included patio furniture and a fire pit. The patio was nice since the grass was muddy from all the winter rain. The showers and bathrooms appeared clean and maintained. The hot tub was open, but it was too early in the season for the pool and splash pad. The laundry room was large and had newer machines. The gift shop had all the essentials for RVers and guests. There is also 2 arcade games, a Star Wars pinball machine and pool table in the lounge area of the front office. They have a small library of books and board games, dice and dominoes to use. The dog park area is on the smaller side, but there are some great pet walk areas around the resort. There is also a small 9 hole golf course next to the KOA. The WiFi was good and able to stream. The cable was not so good due to limited channels and fuzz (could have been my fault). The historic Benbow Inn across the way was a nice surprise with good food options, a full bar and traditional afternoon tea. It's a short walk on a nice path or you can drive there. We were within a few freeway exits of the Avenue of the Giants and a lot of other famous trees and redwood groves in the area. One exit away, in Garberville, there is a supermarket called Ray's Food Place and an awesome Mexican restaurant called El Cora Restaurant. There are fuel options in Garberville as well. I would definitely recommend Benbow KOA to others.
