Campground Reviews

Jul 30, 2021
The camp was clean, well organized and quiet except for some highway noise. The showers were nice. Lots of families. Dinner at the lodge across the freeway was very good but there are few other dining options. We used this campground to access the Lost Coast NCA. Other options in the area that would work well for this purpose are the fairgrounds in Ferndale and the Humbolt Redwoods State Park.

Clean bathrooms and friendly staff

The sites were okay and relatively clean with the exception of chalk drawings all over the concrete slab. That should have been cleaned off before the next guest. The fact that started you charge for WiFi makes us want to find a different place to stay. No other campground charges for this. Why bother having a golf course if you’re unable to maintain it?

Not worth the price. I could have stayed in a motel down the road with a pool & spa and it would have cost less and been open more hours. The cabin was not cleaned well. 100 degree days & AC didn't work to cool the cabin, even when it was set at 80 degrees and was obnoxiously noisy! Things falling apart.. Kitchen was too minimal for adult and 3 kids:1 glass, 2 bowls, 1 steak knife 0 mixing bowl

Very nice place with all the amenities. A bit pricy. We just stayed one night.

Don went over and beyond making sure he was doing everything possible for us to have a nice stay. However the golf course is not in good shape and the check in process was very slow. Seems like Don was the only person who was really trying to make sure guests got what they needed. Everyone else seems to have a “not my job” attitude.

There were 20 or more teenagers on the playground screaming profanities until past midnight. I called the “Night Manager” multiple times with no answer. After a restless night sleep I told the man behind the counter about our problem. He just stared at me blinking slowly like he couldn’t be bothered. After a long silence he looked at me and shrugged said “…ok…sorry?”. Absolutely terr

I would not recommend this KOA. It is run down, the grass is dead, the cabins were not very clean and the campground was not allowed to run the splash zone for kids on a hot day. The pool was too cold. A one night stay is ok but to stay any longer is a waste of money.

Nice location. Sites dusty, but I’ll attribute that to the drought. Grass was dead. Decent laundry room. Bathrooms were why I give this KOA a low rating. The ventilation only worked when someone was in there and it smelled moldy. Floors and showers looked like they had done had a good cleaning in ages. The shower was really moldy. Pool looked nice although we left early and did t use it.

Unfortunately it was not what we expected from a KOA experience. The staff was very nice and friendly but the overall campground was lacking in activities. The playground was rundown, the pool was cold, there was no snack bar or casual food option and the overall experience left us underwhelmed. We ended up cutting our trip short and going somewhere else. It did not live up to the KOA name.

Spent 4 days at the Benbow KOA. This place is clean and the staff is so kind and helpful. My family and I had the best time.

Easy in and out!

We were really happy with the swimming pool area. The bathrooms by the tent area were not super clean and pretty smelly. We stayed in a tent spot and our neighbors warned us of the booming skunk population and once it got dark we experienced it as well. Nobody was sprayed, but the skunks were definitely comfortable around people and it added a little extra “excitement” to our night.

3rd time there and planning to go there again - clean, accessible, plenty of space - good stop if you traveling between Oregon and California

We were disappointed as this was advertised as a KOA Holiday. Activities were scarce-no movie, no BINGO-things that were on the website when booked. In addition, staff gave us differing answers when it came to activities (one told me that there was no community campfire...I asked another and found out where the campfire pit was but was told that we would need to take care of the fire ourselves).

We love the large campsites and redwoods at Benbow-- we had workers from hotel/campground living in a cabin by us, and they played music and partied on porch until three am, It was also disappointing that the movie night and bingo were on website, but did not actually happen (my guess is website was out of date). The metal vent pole by our hookups actually fell over...be careful!

Beautiful grounds, pleasant staff, we loved it!

Ants everywhere in cabin. Couch is extremely dirty. Bathroom always smell like urine.

OK for stopover. Staff friendly and helpful. Loose wiring at pedestal. Vehicles parked on dead grass area.

We enjoyed our stay at Benbow KOA, very relaxing, enjoyed the pool.

The a/c where running continuously the whole time we were there and no one where staying in them. What a waste of money. Other than that It was a good stay.

We were in a premium space and the table was dirty, cigarette butts, and even dog poo in our spot. Needless to say, I was very disappointed. I asked one of the workers to please at least clean the table, but he said they were to busy. Enough said. I cleaned it myself, you know, covid and all.

Had a nice stay in a 20' travel trailer. Nice and close to the redwoods. The staff were kind and attentive.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for visiting. So glad you enjoyed your time with us and visiting the ancient Redwoods along Avenue of the Giants! Hope you can visit again. :)

This RV park is in bad need of repair. The sites are not level, the asphalt has badly eroded, the landscaping is not maintained and the roads need to be resurfaced. The golf course is all but forgotten. The rules are not enforced: saw several pit bulls in camp, campers did not necessarily clean up after their pets. Quiet time was not enforced.

Wi-fi was inaccessible at our site. Otherwise, it was great.

We met up with a group there and had a great time! Easy access park, great amenities, beautiful location

We had a very good stay. The cabin we rented was nice, clean, and with more than enough space for the weekend we stayed. Looking forward to the next time we come up and stay!

We only stayed one night on our way home. . Try to add a night, but you were full.

Activities for the kids were excellent! Campsites under the big trees were amazing! Campsites not under the big trees out by the cows and open field are less than wonderful. We were only there for one night but the grass doesn’t appear to be watered much, while the grass under the big trees is bright green. The baths in this area are clean but shower itself doesn’t have much pressure and too h

The campground was clean, these were the nicest bathrooms I’ve seen at a KOA and the dog park was nice.

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!!!
