Nice park in an excellent location near the Benbow Lodge, with a clear creek running by the campground. Negatives: Incessant, non-stop dog barking at night from what appears to be a long term camper / employee's dog at the north end of the campground. Not worth the stay in this delightful area because the dog's barking kept me awake all night.

Way too many kids (teens) running around on golf carts, going way too fast though the campgrounds with kids riding bikes. Teenagers riding carts on the greens with kids hanging off the back of carts. No supervision on what was going on. You were not ready for the long weekend or the amount of campers. Running out of ice, trash cans over filled and the pool was missing the heating element.

The area is beautiful and full of birds and trees. Our young daughter had a great time. However, the constant traffic of speeding golf carts made it not very relaxing. The cabin was well-appointed and clean. But there were ants in the sink. The toilet was sluggish and bubbled when the tub was drained. And the swimming pool was a huge disappointment, as it was not heated.

Very fun place to stay! Pool, hot tub, golf! If that’s not enough, check out the Benbow Inn next door. Staff is always friendly and the manager, Chloe, is always accommodating. Sites are spacious and well maintained.

Kids on golf carts and motorcycles flying around with at least 8 kids piled on. Very noisy. Actual golfers were not able to rent carts. Very disappointing usually campground is nice to stay at.

One bathroom stall out of around 6 had toilet paper. Only a few of the stall doors latched, only 2 out of 4 of the sinks turned on. The office did lend us a tire pump, which was very helpful, but they were out of ice for our ice chest. It was memorial weekend and no events or entertainment were offered. The garbage area was full, so we had to take our garbage home with us.

Check in / out easy and efficient. Nice little store and propane on site. Sites are small and cramped. Very little room between sites. Good location and lots of activities for children. But if you want peace & quiet this is not the place.

Your Benbow KOA is very nice, we much enjoyed our stay. We believe one of the best KOA park's we've stayed at. Thank you

It was our first time staying at a KOA. We didn’t know what to expect. Customer service was excellent and the amenities were great! However, the set up was very similar to what you’d expect at a trailer park. It was a hectic start to a long Memorial Day weekend so you’d expect the KOA to be impacted. There was an unleashed dog, drunk and loud visitors after 10 pm, & unfriendly visitors throu

Been going for years. No cable--has been that way for monthsnow apparently, BUT the person who made our reservation SHOULD HAVE TOLD US IN ADVANCE that cable was not available, and told us when we checked in.. Not happy about that!

I enjoyed our stay but wished the office had opened earlier than 10:00 am. Thanks

Beautiful area and very nice people. Chloe was very friendly and knowledgeable. Pool and streets defined need some repairs.

Good place to stop and stay in the middle of a long drive. We were in the back section where it's quieter. Bathrooms were clean and shower was good. There are a lot more tiny house cabins then we remembered, lots, so a lot of their business seems to be in monthly rentals to locals but it was still quiet.

Always love our time here

Great place
May 19, 2025
Staff was friendly. Overall, the campground is nice, but we were very disappointed with our site, especially for the price of $84! We were all the way in the back with no trees around when there were very pretty sites closer to the office. We made our reservations in Jan! The description of the site said we had cable, but it didn’t work. I left a msg using the after hrs phone #; never heard back

Many amenities offered, clean and pleasant reception.

Friendly staff, charming campground with the cutest tiny cabins. Would be a great place for a family reunion. Roses were in bloom!

Store hours are too short, the pool and hot tub area closes at 6pm which is way too early. Only premium sites have fire pits ���� But on the good side the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable!

The dog poop area is right at the tent sight area not fun. The cabin had lots of spiders. The shower in the cabin had very brown water had to use the community shower. Hours for hot tub were only for day time use.

We love the place. Very friendly staff. Roomy spots. Very pretty. Only wish the hot tub was available in eve. Maybe stayed open till at least 9. That was disappointing. And heads up.the dryers on high heat for an hour and laundry was still wet. However, neither are a deal breaker for us. We would stay again. And I will recommend the place. Best k.o.a. thanks!

The most thing that we missed was no fire wood in stock and also very few items in the store for sale.

We have been coming to your KOA for 4 years ,a couple times each year. People are awesome. Chloe is the best. My biggest downfall. This is second time it has happened. No ice. I understand off season. But what about the people who need it. Maybe if you are going to keep an empty ice freezer in off season. Put a ice machine. Or just filll the ice freezer with ice.

The people who work there are very helpful. I wish the WiFi would work better. The campsite 85 with the fireplace was very enjoyable. Very clean overall. Came back here the second time and will come back again

We arrived and found or site. Twenty minutes after setting up a tour bus full of teenager arrived and start to set up tents behind us and were very loud. We called the on-duty manger and told him that this was unacceptable he told us we were not the first to call, he stated that we could move sites. Also, we had stayed at this site about a week before and was charged a different rate WHY?

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We did indeed have a group of school children come in to camp with us after hours and we apologize that they disturbed you. Our rates fluctuate depending on the dates and availability, and in your case you also received discounts! We will avoid such confusion going forward and hope to see you soon!

Very muddy with grass that hadn’t been mowed for who knows how long.
Apr 30, 2025
The grass was high and needed mowed. We were unable to pick up Satellite TV but the Wi Fi was decent. It had some highway noise, This KOA felt much more rustic and old compared to other KOA Holidays.

Nice place . Assuming more weed whacking will be done to rid of foxtails.

We enjoyed our time at the Benbow KOA! Our cabin was clean, and nicely sized for 2 people and one dog. There was a short footpath down to the Eel River, which was just outside our cabin. Staff members were warm and friendly, and the park had an overall good vibe. We walked over to the Benbow Inn and had a great dinner from their bar menu, on the front patio. The food was fresh and delicious!

In general the campground was nice. About 15 min from a town with grocery and a few restaurants. Benbow Inn is a short walk away and has a nice restaurant. Golf is available. Our only complaint was that the grass was really tall. We had a delux patio site, and the grass was 1-2 ft high in places, which made it buggy and hard to enjoy the outside. Space wasn't large enough for our truck.

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!
