We had 4 relaxing days at Benbow KOA - it's a beautiful campground & the staff was SUPER friendly & helpful. We used it as a home base to visit Garberville, Ferndale, see the coast, etc. The amenities were great, the pool was gorgeous! We loved golf - & walked to the Historic Benbow Inn for 2 happy hours + 1 meal + had a lovely walk along the river. Looking forward to visiting again soon!!

Overnight, easy and convenient

This campground is clean, has a lot of wonderful amenities, especially for the kids. The pool closes at eight, which it would be nice if it were open a little longer. The staff is extremely accommodating and very friendly.

I have stayed at the Benbow KOA in the past and I was very impressed this visit with the cleanliness and the upkeep efforts that have clearly been taken in recent years. Facilities are in good condition, the camping areas are clean. I visited mid-week and the park was quiet, something that has not been true on previous visits. I would visit this campground again. Full Hook ups.

Great stay. Nice golf.

The staff is fantastic! The campground not so much. The grass is dry. The trees are not trimmed and they let golf carts with kids run all over the place. We wanted to golf there and did but it was the worst golf course I’ve ever been to. The entire course was dry you could barely put your tee in the grounds to tee off and most of the time the tees broke. Drove six hours and sadly disappointed!

The staff and reception were great; however, we were extremely disappointed in the campsite and facility. At Journey level we expected so much more. We had been here several times in years past but we were sad to see dead grass/weeds everywhere. Our site had some green grass I mowed and broken sprinklers leaving portions of our site muddy. We had to pick up dog poop in our site when we arrived and

It has been 25 years since the last time I visited this KOA. I was really excited to revisit some of the memories we made during our past visit. When turned into the entrance, we were met with dead grass everywhere. The golf course was in such bad shape. Our excitement quickly turned to disappointment. Unfortunately, we will not be returning to this park unless we hear changes being made

nice place but almost all the grass was dead

Wonderful staff great location and everything was so clean and well maintained
Jun 25, 2025
Over priced. Poorly maintained. Dead grass and stickers everywhere. Loud noise from landscaping and other guests. No hot water in bathrooms. Bathrooms dirty and not maintained. Trailer sites are too tight and not level. Other than that we made do.

Cabin should have had TVs
Jun 23, 2025
The sites were crowded, quiet hours were non-existent, and the showers/bathrooms did not have hot water. The camp store showers were dirty with used tampons IN them and the shower heads sprayed the ceiling until we fixed it ourselves. Kids drive golf carts around the grounds well into the night. We only recommend this KOA because of its close proximity to redwoods and large laundry facilities.

Very pleased with the staff. We had water leak and had to leave a day early. They processed a credit for the day/night we were not there. Very impressive. Thank you, Jim Johnson

Very pleasant park and area. I guess they were saving water as the golf course and all of the site grass areas were all dry? We would stay again though.

The WiFi didn’t work very well. The site was too short for our travel trailer and truck so paying extra for a pull through was a waste of money. The hookups are at the back of the pull through which wasn’t helpful. No hot water in the back bathroom. Dated park needs updated. No tv signal at all.
Jun 21, 2025
Very nice and helpful staff! Seemed that they were a little behind on preparation for the season. Some unfinished construction, and bathrooms need some updating. But, I would go back.

Quiet place for a couple of days. The Kampground could use some love. Lots of upgrading is needed here. The campsite hookups are very old and should be replaced. All of the amenities need work, pool heater not working, etc. all of the grass is dead. We stayed years ago and it’s disappointing to see the area has not been kept up.

Very pleasant staff as always. Store was very bare and hoping this is temporary. Please replace the couch in the store in front of the TV. Super old and very gross looking. I will not sit in it, that’s how gross it looks. Otherwise had a nice time.

Very Nice
Jun 17, 2025
The employees are great. Nice location has lots to offer. My last stay was not good not do to KOA but to another camper who decided that it was ok to berate me because my dog barked for 10-15 minutes. Total jerk who thinks he can get his way through intimidating others. My suggestion is that if you have an issue with another camper that you inform management. It is not anyone's right to confront.

The grounds were very nice and we especially appreciated the lighting along the path back from the Inn. It was disappointing that you didn't have a driving range (and maybe not a putting location) and no golf balls? Hope you get the hot water situation fixed in the far restroom building. I would have liked to have taken a shower. We'll come again, but maybe ask more questions in advance next tim

Pool and hot tub nice. Cabin was dirty no curtain on the door, sofa bed mattress was full of stains or mold the floors not clean
Jun 16, 2025
No washer or dryer’s they were broken. Showers are very old and dirty. No cable spaces are very close together. This could be a very nice place to stay needs work.

Nice park. Aisles are a bit narrow. We had a great site with deck. Very private. Park is outside Grants Pass but conveniently located.
Jun 15, 2025
We loved it! Only thing we would change, is: pool and hot tub and office need to be open until 10. After a lovely day at the river, then dinner with friends at a different campground, we wanted to enjoy those facilities. We were really disappointed to see how early it closed. Also, the hours weren’t posted anywhere, brochures or outside.

Catherine and Chole are great at the desk. Kinda of surprised at the uptick of beer prices. Wicked aunt Tammys has been like $3.49 for last 2 years. Now $7 a can. We always stop at KOA going to Trinidad. Murphys Grocery store in Trinidad last 2 years $3.50. This trip only $3.99. I understand prices go up. But $7 for a can. Good luck. Hi to the girls. See you next trip......

I have used a KOA cabin as my lodging when visiting family in Benbow for approximately 10 years. Upon arrival approximately 1 hour before the "official" check in time, I was refused early check-in. After returning to check-in, I discovered that TV service had been removed without prior disclosure. Very disappointing stay. Most likely will never go back & will not recommend to anyone!

Liked KOA. Need to get TV fixed
Jun 13, 2025
There are no tv’s anymore, the back sliding door doesn’t lock, there’s just a stick that allows the door to slide enough to be lifted off the track. There were hairs in the bed, the counters and fridge were dirty and no toilet paper in the bathroom. We’ve stayed here many times before and it was good, this was a let down for sure. The new manager Ruben was polite and receptive to the issue
Jun 12, 2025
The staff here are very polite and friendly. The campground is in need of repair though. The space we stayed in (E65) the 30 amp was not working. The circuit breaker was even loose. Luckily I had a "dog bone" to reduce the 50 amp to 30 amp. Someone who is a newbie, or in a rental RV might not have that and could be without 110 volt power. I did see lots of maintenance activity going on.

I’m sure when everything is normal, this place is lovely. However, for our overnight stay, I was very disappointed. I wasn’t able to use the only shower near us because their hot water was broken. No heads up, no discount for unavailable services. With a heads up, we could have used the main building before driving to the back of the campground and setting up. Very disappointing.
Jun 10, 2025
Facility is very dated, very tight fitting spaces, no tv cable as advertised, no green grass, bathrooms had no hot water, the employees travel in loud gas powered golf carts, very young staff that appear inexperienced.
Jun 10, 2025
The campground is very dry and the grass areas are not mowed or kept up. The main bathrooms had no hot water for showers and the staff did not give clear instructions on how to access other showers after 8pm when the office area closed. It’s very run down.

This KOA is clean and well cared for. The sites are easy to get in and out of and the park in general is nicely equipped. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The pool and splash pad are really wonderful family activities and they have crafts for kids and other things for the kids to do. The pool closes early, 8 PM due to staffing.
Jun 10, 2025
Sunshine, good times and fun on the golf course are always had here. The staff treats you very well. I will definitely be going back soon!

Very nice RV spots

The Benbow KOA is in a magnificent location and the staff is friendly and very attentive. The golf course and pool were excellent amenities for a KOA campground. The campgrounds themselves can us some maintenance and upkeep and the deluxe cabin was a little run down. My family and I stayed in cabin at the Waldport KOA the night before and the cabin was impeccable, the Benbow cabin was not.

Campground was ok. Kids racing around on golf carts took some adjusting. Surrounding sights were very nice.
Jun 07, 2025
This kampground has gone steadily downhill for the last 20 years. Lawns are dead, trees are dying, facilities reflect significant deferred maintenance, and although they sell full hook up as having cable, the facility has not had cable for 9 months. Only redeeming factors were some of the employees. VERY DISAPPOINTING

Need to fix shower knobs in men's bathroom near store. It burns you if accidentally turned off incorrectly.

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!
