Campground was not ready for campers no attendant escort to site as w/ other KOAs we’ve stayed. Very little room for truck parking making getting into the sites difficult. Most sites had wheel marks through the weeds. The weeds btw had not been mowed no amenities were open. Outside attractions are about an hour away by car. The posted check in is 4:00. We were allowed to come in earlier than tha

We're a year round campground ready for campers anytime, but it is true that a lot of our extra amenities are not open during the winter season due to less travelers on the road. Our check in time for cabins is 4pm, but 1pm for RV sites. We highly recommend checking out our website to stay informed!

We have stayed here several times and have enjoyed the park enough to want to stay again. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The store is fun to shop in. The park is well maintained. It is close to many fun places to visit too.

We stayed 3 nights, of which 1 was a free night. We stayed in an end site called Luxury Site. We like this site since at least one side is open and not blocked by another RV, as sometimes happens and then you are sandwiched in between 2 rigs. Even though the KOA was not full by any means, many open sites, they still placed another rig next to us on the open side, when many places were available.

FHU Comfort Patio site 52 was nice. The staff in the office were very helpful and friendly. The showers and toilets were clean. The WiFi was very good. The hot tub, arcade games, pool table and lounge area near the office were great. Perfect location for Avenue of the Giants and other famous redwood locations. I would highly recommend.

We were assigned to a space that was so muddy we had to find a board to step on in order to get into our travel trailer, even though there were many empty spaces that were empty ( and stayed empty the entire time we were there). On the plus side, the manager did comp us a night. The restrooms/ showered were older, but clean and great water pressure in the shower.

This is a quaint campground. We enjoyed our stay but it was very muddy because of lots of rain. The sites have small pads so it gets a little messy. Since we were here before they open the pool we had no other amenities that we use. We would visit again if in the area.

We would love to host you during the summer with pool and all. please visit again. thank you

Broken water line

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Unfortunately we did have a main burst in the back of our park right after our store opened, luckily everything was fixed and up and running around 1pm that day. We're sorry you had to experience such an inconvenience on the day you were checking out and we look forward to your return.

We are 53 feet toatal. Going on grass cannot happen in the sites at this time of year. We were placed in site 72. As I approached could see trailers before had created a mud puddle. Had to drive through it putting the truck and trailer in mud. I washed it all off. Could not walk around site as mud and water at back of trailer. I mentioned at front, was told they had lots of rain, no sorry. picture

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We're sorry you had poor experience at our park. Unfortunately during this time of year we do get a lot of rain and mud, but our staff is always more than willing to help get you a site that's more accommodating for your needs. We also ask that you don't park on the grass during any time of year.

The Employees are super AMAZING !!!!! The RV park is clean and fun for the family:) Remember to go over to the Hotel for cocktails and food. My wife and I have been going there since 1976 on our Honeymoon . It's a Great place in the summer for the kids with the pool , Jacuzzi , playground and summer swimming holes on the river.

Very nice office staff. However the sites were narrow and we were placed in a very muddy site when drier sites were empty. To top it off we had our rv broken into and things were stolen during the night.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

As per our phone conversation, we truly abhor theft and would like to make it up to you in you future travels, KOA Management

This was a typical KOA based on our experience staying in other KOA’s across the country. The bathrooms were clean, all the hookups worked, the lobby was nice and the staff were friendly. The only gripe I have, is that the spaces and roads to the spaces were not paved enough to allow easy in/out access. We ended up dragging our toad through the mud to get lined up properly.

Thank you for staying with us. We hope your travels have you back with us soon!

Unhelpful woman at check-in rang us up as non-members despite being told we are members. She insisted on our membership number, which we didn’t have and couldn’t find without cell coverage. Signed in at 3 other KOA’s in the last month using only our name. Finally got logged in and found our number, and she had it on her screen the whole time! Very disappointing and unfriendly!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We're sorry you had a poor experience checking in. Upon looking into the issue we have found that it was a communication error. Our front desk was told to use a nickname while your rewards is associated with your full name. Our system is very sensitive to those differences, we hope to see you again.

Great facilities and super friendly staff! Just off the freeway so easy to maneuver the trailer and rest for the night. Only downside is no ATM on site, so if you need to do laundry you need to drive 3 miles to the closest ATM and then come back to the campground for change.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us here at the KOA, and we do apologize the inconvenience with the laundry change. please come stay again!

Love this place. Very clean and accommodating. Large pull through for our class A and jeep. A lot of sights to see in the area. Dog friendly is a big plus for us. We will definitely be back. Very friendly staff.

Off season, so plenty of space. Check in in fast and friendly. Assigned spot was too wet (it'd the off season -rain) - move to a new spot was fast and easy. Price was good.

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
