Very clean kids loved the pool. The only draw back was the noise. To noisy. The highway was right there and it was never ending hard to sleep. And the drunks next door campers. But live and learn. Other than that it was very nice

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We appreciate your feedback. We are sorry to hear that road noise and unruly campers upset your KOA experience. Unfortunately, the luxury and convenience of our location does mean we have some traffic noise during peak travel hours. Quiet time is 10pm and we try to ensure guests adhere to park rules

Thank you to all the staff, it was an absolutely wonderful stay. We had a lot of fun and Benbow keeps a nice and clean campground. Thank you for the special accommodations for our dog. We really appreciate it. We will definitely be back.

As always the staff was wonderful, friendly, professional and very helpful. Quiet stay and relaxing. The only reason that I rated a 4 was because we wanted to purchase Propane on our way out and told 8:45 - 9:00am that the guy would be there. When leaving at 9:30 the guy still hadn't shown up - the poor apologetic staff person in office wasn't aware of any changes and apologized profusely.

Very nice KOA. Well maintained, great staff. Great location for visiting the Redwoods and Benbow Inn.

Disappointed in no bucket train after flyers were handed out. Low voltage and no cable in site disgusting sandpit in site that cats poop in splash pad very inconvenient to guests and staff.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry to hear your experience was disappointing. Our sites are all full hook-up, 50/30/20 or 30/20 amp sites based on equipment needs. Not sure how you experienced low voltage. All sites are equipped with cable as well. We would have gladly addressed equipment issues had we been informed.

Always love our stays at Benbow. Lots for the kids to do. Seems like they are doing lots to clean it up and improve it. Hope to go back next month!

Lot's of great amenities. The young lady behind the counter was sweet and helpful all weekend.

Very friendly and helpful customer service from the first Visit to the park. She was more than accommodating. My family will definitely stay here again when in the area

Nice spot right off highway 101. All the usual KOA amenities but the best part was dinner at the nearby historic Benbow Inn, which is just a short walk from the campground. Normally I only give one star to any KOA with speed bumps, which have damaged our RV in the past, but the ones in the Benbow KOA are half-height and get the job done without any risk to levelers/stabilizers.

My stay was great! The staff - excellent and I found Benbow KOA very accommodating. It was such a good experience that I was sorry to leave when my stay was up.
Jun 15, 2024
Great KOA. The staff were excellent. The grounds are well kept. We did our laundry while there and the laundry room is clean with all machines working. We had dinner at the Benbow Historic Inn and restaurant, which is only a 5 minute walk.

I can't believe you would charge $100 for that tri-plex you call a cabin. There were no chairs, no picnic tables. A big hole dug outside with with a tractor parked in unit spot. There was a TV but no cable, would have been nice since there was nothing else to do outside in the evening.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We're sorry you didn't enjoy your experience. Our triplex units are cabins split into 3 smaller units, so they are indeed quite small. If there was an issue with the cable staff would have been able to fix that if notified. Please reach out and let us know how we could make your next stay better!

This is a really nice campground- trees, grass and super clean- thank you!

such a nice, clean campground with great amenities! The only con I would say is that the site we were at seemed more well suited for a trailer or RV so it was a little small and awkward for a tent. Next time, I will specify wanting to be in a more grassy area.

Staff was all very pleasant and kind. My biggest complaint is that I reserved the premium patio site but what I got did not match the photos. There were no lounge chairs. The table was fine but the chairs were very worn down and we were afraid to sit in one of them. They also put 1 night stay people rotating in the site next to us all week. even with the place less than 20% full.

We arrived and checked into our site , when we got to our site we found the cement patio pad covered with debris and the picnic table was very dirty and had lots of bird dropping on it . I had to clean the cement pad off, and we did use the table because of the condition. It would seem that if you had someone checking into a site you would check it before your guess arrival .

We had a wonderful visit at Benbow campground, the site was nice and clean , we noticed a lot of workers attending to the park, watering the lawns, tree trimming, The office lady’s where very friendly, thank you for all your help

We always enjoy our stay at Benbow KOA. My ONLY complaint is there were foxtails in the dog run. The staff is helpful and friendly. We'll be back again!

This is a wonderful KOA with an amazing team. The location is beautiful, perfect as a home base to explore the Lost Coast and redwood forest. The pool and spa were great. On our last daywe got a flat tire on our trailer. The KOA team recommended a great towing company to change out our spare and helped make sure all our tires were properly inflated for our trip home. We will definitely be back.

Very nice park, well kept up. Next time have to remember to bring my golf clubs

I am angry about the people with golfcarts. They drive so fast over the campground.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Unfortunately we did have many people break our rules regarding safety and speed on our golf carts. We spoke to as many of those people as we could and some have been banned from any future use. We apologize for the disruption you experienced and hope to make your next stay a better one!

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!
