We enjoyed our stay, but the grounds are not nearly as green as shown on the website. The splash pad only being available on weekends was also disappointing. The office/game room closes early as well. Long-term guests are a bit off putting from a safety standpoint.

The young lady who checked us in(didn't get her name) was very friendly and most efficient.

Beautiful Park. Well maintained clean scenic and easy to get in and out of. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful. Levi and Chloe provided service above and beyond when they took me up to the Benbow hotel for dinner so I didn’t have to walk after two knee replacements. Great job folks.

The service was awesome. From our first phone call to our check in. We were disappointed by the state of the bathrooms. They seem to be run down. Also, multiple dogs were running around off leash. That made it difficult to walk our dogs safely. This particular KOA seemed more rundown than most.

Always a pleasure to see the friendly staff. Thank you.

I love how quiet the camp is. KOA staff is constantly working to repair, maintain and update the camp. The personnel are warm and helpful.

No cable hook ups, wi-fi was almost non-existent. They tell you because of location wi-fi might be spotty but when I turned off wi-fi and used mobile data it worked fine which tells me the park has insufficient boosters for the wi-fi. Pull through spaces were difficult to get into due to being so close together. Trash on the ground in the space upon arrival. Thank goodness it was only one night!

You could water the lawns and golf course for only 5 minutes a day and the grass would turn GREEN and attract lots more visitors!

Friendly service but I wish the splash pad was on more frequently due to the heat…for the kids. The pool had a lot of bugs and there wasn’t any available chairs to sit in or shade for our family since it was a crowded weekend. Also with there were more chairs around the community fire pit. Really enjoyed our RV site 412 but the eye sore were the large maybe electrical boxes covered in webs

No cable TV as advertised, No internet as advertised, Golf course grass totally dead, Lounge area and couch disgusting, TV in lounge area did not even get the All Star Game, Grass in sites dead. The one shineing star were the people who worked there, they were super nice!!!

I was worried I’d be dispersed moto camping but they got me in there. The bathrooms were super clean. The staff was amazing and friendly. I couldn’t be happier. I had never stayed at a KOA before but it’s worth it.

Loud with bad neighbors that was a family reunion. Call office in regards to the group and nothing was done. We paid for 2 nights and would never go back or recommend to anybody else

We were scheduled to stay 2 nights here and left first thing the next day after checking in. When we arrived, our spot had towels and cans on the site we had to clean up. The bathrooms were very dirty, no toilet paper. The garbage was overflowing in all the garbage areas. The guest were piling garbage on the ground. We had a garbage smell at our site. The whole site just look like gloom!

Despite being KOA members, reserving months in advance and arriving early, we were given the one pull through site that did not have any shade in 95+ weather. Very disappointing, If you stay there in hot weather, do not accept space 61.

We love staying at Benbow KOA! Great pool and amenities. Just put a hold on a stay for next summer.
Jul 14, 2025
We have been coming to the Benbow KOA multiple times a year for YEARS! This time we were so disappointed. The new owners have let the park go, the grounds are in need of major TLC. The camp store is bare. Overall very disappointing to see our beloved campground neglected. Will we be back… yes. Will we recommend it to friends and visit 3-4x a year… no. New owners…. Show your campground some l

Nice, it was very hot during our stay, they closed the pool & club house at 8:00, would have been nice if they could have kept it open a little later during summer hours. On their website said the golf course was closed but it wasn’t, would have been nice to no that sooner. All the employees were very friendly.

Nice location on the river and good sized sites. Only negatives were the very dry vegetation and the really elevated sewer connection. Made it difficult to connect because the tanks don't want to drain uphill. Took some human intervention to make it work.

Nice park. Friendly staff. Store is well stocked. Sites and streets a bit pinchy. Grass could use some water.

What was once a BEAUTIFUL, Green, well kept, Gorgeous camp site is now a Disgusting, Brown, Burnt grass, unkempt, deteriorating site. The people who work there were nice. BUT!! I paid $125.00 thinking that it was the place I loved staying at. Granted it has been 8 or 10 years, But how shocking it was to arrive and find this craphole!! KOA! Shame on You for putting your name on this Turd!

Very disappointed. The golf course was 1 reason we wanted to stay here. The course was in the worst condition we have every see. It was like playing on concrete. The staff was good but the lack of keeping up the course along with the grounds of the park show the owners don't care

Got in late. Sites are very tight. Not a lot of room. Didn’t use any of the facilities. Golf course was all brown. Needed water.

Pool only had 2 tables with umbrellas, a few lounge chairs, table chairs.Had to bring your own chair,staff would leave the pool cleaner in all day,splash pad only on if someone asked for it.4th of July people were on the course for fireworks, staff would not offer refund for not being able to play all 9.Golf course is in terrible condition which is ok, but the fee to play doesn't align with condit

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Unfortunately, many of our umbrellas have been broken due to guests mishandling them and wind knocking them over. The splash park is limited by our local water company, and you did receive a refund despite not reporting your problem to staff until you came late to return our cart. Green fees are $10

Everything was great but they didn’t have cable at our RV site. Very disappointed

The staff was very helpful, friendly and informative. Overall site was comfortable and clean. It’s a great location and we would definitely return.

The only complaint we might make is the laundry area there is no air conditioning in the room also the 2 times my wife done laundry there were 3 dryers with dry bedding left in for at least the 2 hours she spent there

We have been coming to this KOA for years, before it was KOA, and it has gotten worse every time we go. We've given it time to establish and are always disappointed. Spend over $4000 on a family vacation between cabins and RV sites and golf. Dead grass everywhere. Dead plants. Golf course was awful. Pool and splash playground is limited. So disappointed !!! Shame on KOA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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!
