The KOA at Benbow was very nice. Expensive, but nice. We only stopped for an overnight stay and have been by many times. We wanted to try it and see. For the money the facilities were sub par. A nice flat, level pull through with a picnic table and full hook-ups for near a hundred dollars. We will not pay that again. The price difference to the smaller, shorter sites was not that great. Too much $

Thank you for visiting us. We are a Tourist Focused park right near Avenue of the Giants! Our site rates reflect demand for our location. Our guests love being able to have a nice dinner at the Benbow Historic Inn, our partner, just across the way!

It is my new favorite KOA. The host family is very friendly. The grounds are clean and enjoyable. We will be back.

They have people living full time at the campground. The trailers and cabins are cluttered with junk and very run down.

Thank you for visiting us! We are connected with our partner, the Benbow Historic Inn. We offer housing options for our Employees, so many of the full time people at our campground are our Employees. We hope you enjoyed your stay in the Humboldt Redwoods!

The campsite is a very expensive campground. For the high price we expected a little more enjoyable grounds not dead grass and dusty sites.

Thank you for visiting! We have had a few years of not enough rain, leading us to cut back on our irrigation to help support the health of the Eel River. We were so happy to see that there was water in the East Branch through the entire summer! Last year it completed dried. We hope you can return.

Good

Thanks! We love our Benbow KOA also! This time of the year, our favorite activity is to sit in the Hot Tub during a good rain! :)

Lovely clean spacious sites. Quiet The internet could be better, but I had a book and a deck of cards ���‍���

We are working to improve our WiFi conditions, the big trees can make the signal transmission tough! We love our big tall Redwoods though, and hope you can visit again!

I've been here several times, and this was another great stay at this beautiful RV park. My premium site, (worth the extra $) has a large green grass area with roses in full bloom. The landscaping crew does a outstanding job. Recent infrastructure improvements include many new power pedestals. The new cable TV connection greatly improved reception. Still needed...modern internet. I'll return.

Started with extremely friendly and helpful desk clerk, even though we were a late arrival (around 8pm). Enjoyed the clean pool and spa and the whole campground was pleasantly quiet. My daughter and I had a great experience.

We do our best to have friendly Front Desk Staff that prioritize guest happiness. Hope you can visit us again here at the Benbow KOA!

Very clean and friendly host, and the showers were to die for! Would recommend anyone to visit.

We had a great time during our stay. Close to things we wanted to see and do. Office staff were so nice and friendly. We’ll be back again and will spread the word. Thank you!

Nice campground very clean will come back again on my next journey

Great staff and decent sites. Cell service is almost non-existent and wifi barely works so I took my iPad to the office to download a movie. We enjoyed our 2 days there.

Very nice facility but a little noisy from traffic off 101. Staff very friendly.
Oct 04, 2022
The area is beautiful but we really thought we would have some tree coverage at the site. There are newer trees but not many mature trees. We drove to the nearby Ave of Giants to get our nature fix. The women working the desk were very friendly and helpful. The spaces are decent sized.

We’ve stayed at several KOA‘s and this one was by far the best!!!!

Thank you for “showing love” and upgrading our room which was the campsites idea. We had an amazing stay and look forward to another opportunity to enjoy the KOA difference in Benbow!

we were traveling home and needed a one night stay close to 101. This RV campground was fantastic - well laid out, quiet, pull-thrus and nice,subdued lighting. I really did love the facility and think I will put it onto my preferred stops. I wanted to use the laundromat but didn't need to at that time. Wonderfully clean! thanks - oh, yes, golf was tempting too.

Employee was rude.

The cabin itself was nice but for how much money it costs the bed should have been better. It’s literally the price of a hotel room. There is nowhere to sit down and I had the worst nights sleep I’ve had in a long time because the bed was so awful. I was just sleeping on the ground with a foam pad and the foam pad was memory foam 2-3 inches and that was more comfortable. Lots of cobwebs.

The WiFi needs serious work.

Very helpful and kind staff. All RV sites are clean and well laid out. Restroom is clean, shower with hot water strong pressure. They told us the Wi-Fi strong at office/pool area and slower past that location (true). If you like golf they have a small course. Be sure to walk over to Benbow Inn, lovely place and good bar menu for a drink and eats. We recommend this KOA for a stop.

Michele and Tina were very helpful. We were given a beautiful site. It was so nice to see the park and golf course green again. Lovely.

C/G clean. Laundry room dryers need to have improved venting to enable better drying. Most loads took 2 hrs. $4 to dry completely.

Beautiful place. Restful.

Awful showers (black mold), pool was nice but don't expect much with the so called splash park. The golf course (if you can call it that) was suppose to be $10 but then you add a cart because you will need it and its closer to $50 on a course that is terrible. Be prepared for very bad cell phone service and internet also. And when you ask them about anything they will say yes we know and that's it

Clean, well laid out, big clean laundry room, really nice bike or walking trails. Can’t go in the river due to algae but still beautiful. Friendly staff.

Loved it

I love this KOA. The staff is super friendly and always seem to go out of their way to accommodate my needs. My wife and I have a great time golfing here and they are definitely working hard to get it back up to par. When we don't feel like cooking, the Benbow Inn is just a short walk away. The inn has a great bar menu as does the main dining room.

Our stay wasn’t long enough. The staff was wonderful and very helpful. Beautiful place to stay.

Needs maintenance work and updating. The bathrooms need deep cleaning & better lighting. By the way, there’s no internet at this KOA. Not suitable for a working nomad.
Sep 24, 2022
I don't usually comment on KOAs because they are all great places to stay. However, this KOA went above and beyond. We sideswiped a tree on the way there and did considerable damage to the RV. Tina and the other lady who checked us in were WONDERFUL!! Knowing that we would have issues getting in and out they upgraded our site. The golf and hot tub were also excellent. Best KOA ever!! Thank you!

Benefits of traveling in the off-season, they gave us an upgrade to be closer to the bathrooms. Our original site was in the way back and those bathrooms are closed out there. It seems like they have some fun things to do here but we're only here for hot showers and full hook-ups. We chose this place because it was in our price budget. We felt like the other rv parks that had "Redwood" in their name they could charge extra.

2 nights in our brand new little camper. Friendly service and nice neighbors. Close enough for a drive to many beautiful places to hike.
