My wife and I with two Grandsons stayed for four nights… the park was well maintained by a KOA worker Silas…took great pride in his work… the staff was friendly and helpful. The park was quite at night. And the manager was extremely helpful getting me hooked up for cable… The pool was awesome. The store had items I needed and just minutes from a large store in Garberville.

Nice location for seeing the redwoods. Needs a bit of maintenance such as new paint on casitas and repaving the streets. Used the laundry and bought ice and ice cream at the store.

This place is very clean and the people are super friendly. They take good care of all of the guests needs and they’re always available when you need help.

Very nice campground. The staff was very helpful when we needed to locate particular supplies. At night the staff helped with lighting fires to keep warm.

No hot water in kitchen sink, stove top didn’t get hot enough to boil water, no oven, couch was so disgusting we couldn’t sit on it, bed was very comfortable, lots of clean towels, air conditioner worked great, no pot holders in kitchen, toilet paper roll fell off wall.

The Benbow KOA has easy access from US101 and egress back to the 101. The Benbow KOA has plenty of activities available to RV campers …….. a 9 hole golf course, swimming pool, splash pad, horse shoe pit, shuffle board, plus an activity room for special get-togethers. There are KOA cabins, a big laundry and campground store in the office. We highly recommend the Benbow KOA to travelers.

The pool, hot tub and splash pad combo really helps us make this a fun camp. Rarely,have I seen kids openly cheering because they are having so much fun on a train ride around the camp. The location was very convenient if you are exploring the Avenue of the Giants.

The two tent sites were fine with a nice view of the River. I’m certainly glad that it was mentioned to me that they had no water faucets on them. The cabin could’ve been great, but it wasn’t even acceptable. It had good air conditioning and two porches with tables and chairs. The kitchen lacked linens. But the trump card that ruined the cabin was the ants. Management needs to hire pest se

We rented a camping cabin and an RV space for the weekend. We have stayed here many times in the past. We found the camp fees reasonable, but they are charging fire fees and adding taxes (about 14%) to all services. The community bathrooms for campers were in terrible condition with 3 out of the 6 toilets in the women’s restroom leaking and pooling water on the floor and 2 not working at all.

We had site D-60. It is an end spot with a great shade tree, and a table and chairs on the lawn. The rivers trees grow beautiful and tall, just across the street. Because it is an end spot, there is no other RV in view. The park was 98% full. It felt like a resort. There were lots of what looked like family reunions. Everybody was having fun, and were friendly. The quiet hours were fully respected

The manager was VERY friendly. Camp sites are a little close together. Had to ask neighbors to move their vehicle so I could get out

The check in was a breeze. Sites were well shaded and the staff helpful and friendly.

Very nice KOA. Great customer service - I accidentally booked the wrong date and a quick phone call had it resolved. We only stayed one night but looks like a fun family KOA to vacation at.

Staff was awesome as always. Sites are nice and clean. Bathroom are also clean. Only down side was the 100° heat but they do have a pool and a splash pad. The splash pad is intermittent do to water usage. We had an issue with someone taking my sister tent site and the staff were awesome in working it out with us and the other campers.

Very friendly staff. Great place to take the kids. Did miss the evening activities this year and wish they did a couple different day activities for kids. But overall was a great time and the kids had a blast. The pool, splash park, and barrel rides are awesome.
Jul 10, 2023
Wonderful Stay. My kids loved the pool and splash playground. The barrel rides were a blast, and my kids also enjoyed the arts and crafts. Looking forward to playing golf on our next visit.

Pretty nice little campground outside the redwoods and close to Richardsons grove. Had a good time there with a small 9 hole golf course and swimming pool there were plenty of activities to keep us entertained.

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.

We arrived just before 8:00 p.m. with no reservations and we're greeted by Chloe and Juan who attended to our every need. Thank you for hiring the best. They are definitely an asset to your company. We so enjoyed our time there even though it was real short. Thank you again for your hospitality. You were amazing! Thank you again for such a wonderful experience. We would highly recommend your campground to anyone traveling
