Campground Reviews

Spaces are too crowded in-felt like sardines. Please put a change machine in laundry room....some of us like to do laundry at night but don’t have access to change while your office is closed. The River is a great option for those of us who don’t care for crowded pools....cleaner, easier access to River without traveling to state park is within your means. Your access is overgrown with poison

The office staff were so friendly and helpful upon checkin. The campsites are clean and the grounds nicely maintained. We enjoyed the easy access to the Eel River.

Although our tripwas only 3 nights, we enjoyed our time there. Nice park. Even though it close to 101 there wasn't much traffic noise. Will stay there again.

As usual, we had a wonderful time at the Benbow KOA. Bummed no golf course yet but totally understand why. Looking forward to our next visit in a little over a week.

Long way to pool and spa. Kids monopolizing the hot tub. Otherwise good stay.

Nice campground. Spots were a bit tight but did the trick. Next to 101 so there’s moderate noise. Very clean and well kept.

The property was so so. It was an older facility. The river was really low (out of everyones control). Golf was available. Mix of permanent residents. The staff was very nice and the kids had fun doing the arts and crafts that were offered. Benbow is in great proximity to Avenue of the Giants and about an hour from Shelter Cove beaches.

Benbow KOA is a nice place to stay in the Redwoods. Nice place for kids to play. It doesn't have a pickleball court, shuffleboard and they are short on horseshoes as advertised. The downside are the cabins where employees stay. They have pets and you hear the domestic birds and dog barking (especially at night.) The employees talk loud and have loud cars and music until after midnight.

We stayed for 3 nights in a back in spot. This was our first time at this location. The park was very clean and the staff was friendly. The bathrooms and showers were roomy and hot water pressure was excellent. The laundry facilities were great to have on site. There was a walking path to the historic inn where we had drinks and dinner. The KOA is easy access off 101 & close to attractions.

The young woman who did the kids arts and crafts was amazing!

Beautiful place to stay, our kids had a lot of fun. Ann at the front desk was very friendly and helpful.

The sires need to be a little wider for the new wider trailers with all the slideouts

Loved it.

Prices in two years have doubled, while they no longer have a golf course. The front desk didn’t give us the code for the bathrooms. We were told our site had a patio, but the site next to us had a patio table and chairs we didn’t. For the money your now paying per night at even a worse value than before. Not much else to say about it.

Had a great time at Benbow KOA. Easy check in. I do my homework before going anywhere so there were no surprises except that the pool was open. It was a treat since it was pretty hot when we arrived. My friend that was camping with us had a problem with the electric on his trailer and the grounds keeper was able to help him immediately. Every one was very helpful and nice. Definitely will be back

The staff was very welcoming and facilities were very well kept. We were a bit disappointed that the golf course wasn't open yet but happy to see they were working hard to get it open. The site was very accommodating for the needs we requested. Was our 2nd time staying here and will not be the last!

We were looking for a spot to stay on our way down the 101. Nothing was available. We saw a KOA sign, Pulled in..they had a spot by moving thing around. Ann the Manager was amazing! Her husband Don was equally helpful...a overnite became 3 miles....didnt want to leave..Thx you 2! We'll be back!

Benbow KOA staff were very kind and accomodating. Love the extras provided like billiard room, coloring corner for kids, video game room, dog park, common areas, etc... will definitely be back!!! Thank you for caring about our camping experience!

My only disappointment was that the phone message stated all amenities were avail. Pool was great. Staff was great. No Golf WAS A REAL BUMMER

Early confusion with registrations, but Management graciously helped on arrival. One site, (Ramsey), had intermittent elecrical issues at the pedestal and Office was advised, and sought out an Electrician to repair several Pedestals.

Was disappointing at the least. No golf, which we were very disappointed in. And our space that we had reservations for was unavailable because of the sprinkler system (inadequate maintenance) The only highlight we had was very clean bathrooms, The manager was very weak with dealing with public problems.

have stayed at inn many times, due to covid concerns (may 2021) we stayed at benbow KOA and walked to inn for dinner. WE ENJOYED OUR STAY so much that we will do benbow this way from now on ! only complaint asphalt in premium spots uneven and patches missing making leveling impossible. we will try again

Check in on a Sunday about 1 pm went quickly. Back in trailer site was flat and almost level pavement. Approx 20 feet laterally to next trailer pad. Mowed green weeds covering the dirt between spaces. At least 50% of sites had a shade tree. Near by Benbow day use area does not allow dogs. Noise from 101 freeway from about 7 am til about 9 pm. Ask for fire ring campsite if you want a campfire.

I stayed in the Studio Cabin #44. It was nice and comfortable and next to the river inlet. The grounds were clean and well cared for. All staff was courteous. I will definitely stay there again.

The staff was very considerate and helpful and the grounds were very clean. Upon arrival we had a back in site and it was poor. The sites are right on top of each other and the FULL-TIMERS are placed here, NOT GOOD. We were moved to the Pull-thru sitesand these were very well maintained and clean. The grounds are well kept with lawns and flowers. "Except for the full-timers"very nice.

Such a beautiful, quiet park. We will definitely be staying there again.

Spot was a little tight to get into but otherwise was good.

According to my wife the ladies restrooms were poorly maintained. The shower regulators were broken. There was a lot of trash and discarded clothing on the floor.

Very expensive for the quality of the room. The furniture was awful and the table was falling apart. There were dirty dishes in the dishwasher. Did not have enough towels, and the housekeeper ignored me when I tried to get her attention several times driving past on a golf cart. The pool and hot tub closed at 8 and the website says 10 and signs posted said 9:45 pm. Basically way overpriced!

At check in we were given the wrong bathroom code and the golf course was closed.

Great environment! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the BenbowKOA!!!

We had a great time here, clean and comfortable. Site 58 we stayed at had a broke 30 amp plug and bad circuit breaker, would cut out every couple hours. Plugged into a 110 outlet with our adapter and had no problems, hope they fix this.

This place is very nice. If you are a tourist traveling threw take my word as a local for 44 years. This is one of the best RV parks around this area. And it's central for all the cool stuff around. It is always clean and the grounds are always very well kept. On the east side of the park is a nice golf course (as long as we are not in a drought and they can water properly) on the west side of park is a beautiful river. Plus they have walking paths all over as well. I would highly recommend this park for just you or the hole family.

This was our second trip to this location and it won't be our last. The staff is so friendly and the property is so clean. Make sure to check out the hand made bennies and jewelry. I highly recommend this KOA!!!
