Key card did not work. New card worked but room was disgusting. Moved the disabled member further away in tall uncut grass and very high weeds. Room door very visible gap outside. Lots of spiders and webs I had to remove before room could be used (really a lot). Bed made me feel I was in a hammock. Smelled as just painted so very strong paint smell.

There seemed to be a trash problem. During our brief visit, the big trash bin was never dumped. Some trash was removed so the lids would close. On our first evening, we all gathered at the wagon master's site and every once in a while when the wind would blow, you could smell the trash. The group voted to return next year....it's a beautiful and everyone is very friendly and helpful.

Yes, unfortunately the company who picks up our trash missed it the last 2-3 times they were supposed to be here. We understand the discomfort caused by the bins and have been in contact with the company to have this resolved.

Two of the three dog stations were out of poop bags, the garbage dumpsters were overflowing and it would be nice to have the Jacuzzi hours posted, being closed by 8:10 pm seems awful early.

Thank you for leaving us a review! Always feel free to reach out to staff if you notice such issues as we will almost always be able to find a solution within the hour. Unfortunately the trash company didn't picked up here, but I can assure you we've been contacting them to get it done.

Great all around stay. Only complaints are the pool closes unusually early and it’s weird you need a card to get in the bathroom.

The power pedestal at site #92 needs some work. Both the switches and receptacles had a lot of movement. Of the two water outlets only had a handle.

Management helpful and friendly. Facility clean, including site, bathrooms and showers. Both tent sites, nicely mowed grass but could use grading. Luckily, was not raining as only flat areas were in drainage flow path. Both sites nicely located near fast flowing stream on mowed grass. Parking precariously located on corner in swing radius of RV's.

The KOA staff was very friendly and helpful. The bathrooms and showers were clean and the large grass areas recently mowed. Because of the recent rain some of the areas were a bit muddy- to be expected. Benbow KOA is an "easy-on", "easy-off" access to the highway for RV arrival and when taking day trips to nearby attractions, state parks and Redwood groves. We will definitely come visit again.

Really nice people in the office. Quiet park.

The staff is fantastic. The only complaint is they do not mow the grass around the campsites.

We loved staying here! The employees were so friendly and helpful. The campground was well kept and the restrooms/showers were very clean! The river was just beautiful and the park was in great condition. The pool, hot tub and splash pad were being cleaned while we were there but it looked very nice! We will definitely be coming back in the fall!

This KOA could be nice if they would spend a little time on maintenance of the grounds. Their golf course was kept very nice and mowed but all of the rv sites hadn’t been moved in at least a month. The sites were smallish and the neighbors kids had put up a tent right next to our driveway. Luckily when we left we pulled straight through an empty site in front of us. Drunks everywhere too.

Campground was not ready for campers no attendant escort to site as w/ other KOAs we’ve stayed. Very little room for truck parking making getting into the sites difficult. Most sites had wheel marks through the weeds. The weeds btw had not been mowed no amenities were open. Outside attractions are about an hour away by car. The posted check in is 4:00. We were allowed to come in earlier than tha

We're a year round campground ready for campers anytime, but it is true that a lot of our extra amenities are not open during the winter season due to less travelers on the road. Our check in time for cabins is 4pm, but 1pm for RV sites. We highly recommend checking out our website to stay informed!

We have stayed here several times and have enjoyed the park enough to want to stay again. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The store is fun to shop in. The park is well maintained. It is close to many fun places to visit too.

We stayed 3 nights, of which 1 was a free night. We stayed in an end site called Luxury Site. We like this site since at least one side is open and not blocked by another RV, as sometimes happens and then you are sandwiched in between 2 rigs. Even though the KOA was not full by any means, many open sites, they still placed another rig next to us on the open side, when many places were available.

FHU Comfort Patio site 52 was nice. The staff in the office were very helpful and friendly. The showers and toilets were clean. The WiFi was very good. The hot tub, arcade games, pool table and lounge area near the office were great. Perfect location for Avenue of the Giants and other famous redwood locations. I would highly recommend.

We stayed in a cabin with 3 Units (41B). It was great having the creek below us and hot water in the unit to shower, but I don’t think that was a mattress on the bed. It felt like a box spring because that’s what we felt all night -springs.

We are sorry for your uncomfortable night. An upgrade sounds in order. Please come back and visit again.

This place is beautiful. They have roses and orchids growing everywhere, and you can smell roses when the wind blows. There is river access, and they have a restaurant down the road. Pretty impressive store and a pool and playground. A big laundry room with a lot of machines too.

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.
