We have stayed here for over 40 years and this was the absolute worse! Everything was dry including the golf course! It was run down! So sad ��

We love this KOA. It's beautiful, clean, full of helpful and friendly staff, and just all-around great. We love that there is a pool and that there is the Eel River right there.

Didnt get to attend the ice cream social or ride the barrel train since both ended prior to typical check in times. Following day with checkout being at noon, were also unable to do these activities, since they didn't start until after checkout. Makes no sense. Make sure families can do the activities. Start them earlier, run them later, or both. Just stay somewhere else for half the price instead

Your property is very clean. The employee who checked us in was great. Our stay was quiet & relaxed. The ground poles help with the sewer smell. The wild kitty's were fun to watch.

The park is in a lovely area near the Avenue of Giants. The staff we came in contact with on the grounds were friendly. The front desk clerk was patient and friendly as I decided whether or not to stay another night when an unexpected situation came up. The clean pool and showers were inviting. There are lots of activities in the area for families, golf course for the adults and peaceful at n

We planned this 3-day stay as a base for visiting the redwoods. My husband who is now disabled had never seen the California Redwoods. We love the outdoors and chose to stay in a cabin. The staff went above and beyond to make sure the cabin we stayed in was to his liking. We appreciate their efforts because it really made our stay a memorable one. I highly recommend this KOA!

Staying at the Benbow KOA is always relaxing for us. They have all the amenities for a pleasurable stay.

There was a maintenance guy there named Scotty, he was great and helpful in so many ways. Scotty gets 5 stars! The whole campground is very good!

Super great location and the people are very friendly, but the place just looks tired. It might be because it's the end of the season and it's been hot. The bathrooms really need updating and a deep cleaning (especially the ones in the check-in area). All in all it's a nice place to stay

We only stayed over night but the whole place was clean and the staff was helpful and friendly!

Did not have a reservation and it was Labor Day. These people were so kind and helpful. We are eternally grateful. Park was cute with lots of amenities including a lot of stuff for kids and dogs.

We had the best time! Cabin was great, park was very safe for the kids, and we had so much fun at the pool and KOA hosted ice cream social. The KOA staff even remembered us from last time!

We have been camping at the Benbow KOA for 30 years, long before it was a KOA. The place was always pristine. We have noticed in the past 10 years or so that the place is beginning to look a bit run down. Grass is dead or not watered, yet a water leak in one spot simply had an orange cone and was too muddy to want to camp in. Golf course is in terrible condition. Disappointing.

The staff were helpful and friendly. The resort could use some updating when it comes to the pool area and bathrooms/showers.

At 11:15 there was about 10 minutes of fireworks coming from the Camp Ground. Waking people like this could cause PTSD for some folks and it scares animals for the rest of the night. The same people were up all night talking loud. This needs to be monitored better.

All was fine except there was a wedding Saturday and got pretty rowdy 9pm till 12am

One of the two rooms we reserved was not clean when we checked in. Found dirty dishes in the sink and dirty towels on the floor in the bathroom. Went back to the office and (fortunately) they had another unit for us to check into as housekeeping had left for the day. Staff was friendly and very accommodating, so that was nice and made up for the initial check-in debacle.

The park is very nice however we were there during a very rowdy wedding that shot off illegal fireworks and what sounded like gun shots on Saturday night after 11pm. We reported it to the police and fire department.

We had a overall great experience. The whole staff was very kind and helpful. The restrooms/showers are very clean. The general store had a variety of things you may need. This is a great place to bring your dog and all the dog areas are clean. The overall campground is clean and well taken care of. We will definitely be back.

Checked in on Saturday afternoon. Not enough help on front desk. Wedding going on on property. When I drove to space 407, two autos were parked there. Tried to call Benbow KOA, but only got recording. Had to drive back, then wait to talk to desk person. She called a wedding contact, I drove back and cars still there. Finally got reassigned #406. Then, at 9:30 pm, fireworks rocket was fired, close.

KOA is a really nice campground, because we enjoy all amenities, including Wi-Fi, cable, TV, swimming, pool, and hot tub. However, the Wi-Fi was not working the days we went, and our fire pit was located way too close to the trailer (difficult to have a decent fire).

Just an overnight stay , easy and short walk to the H0tel for dinner and a cocktail!!!

My wife and I love the Benbow KOA. The staff is always very friendly and accommodating. Thanks again for another excellent experience!

We were lucky we were there in the November / December season so lots of room for us. We loved the spacious grounds, close proximity to Redwoods and the cute town of Garberville. We ate at the Historic Inn and loved the Christmas decor and beauty of the hotel.

Beautiful campground! Stayed 3 nights in RV spot. Avenue of the Giants road is just 20 or so miles north, so spent a day doing that. Played 9 holes of golf here one day and that was fun! Lovely and friendly staff!
