Benbow KOA & Golf Course

Accessible via Highway 101, Benbow KOA & Golf Course provides full hookup sites for RVs up to 50 feet with electric, water, and sewer connections. The campground accepts reservations and allows pets, making it a convenient stopping point for travelers on the coast route. Sites include both pull-through and back-in configurations, with campers noting that pull-through options offer easier maneuvering.

The property hosts a mix of overnight guests and extended-stay residents in cabins, creating a more populated atmosphere than some campgrounds. Several cats roam the grounds, which can excite visiting dogs. Highway noise from nearby 101 reaches some sites, particularly noticeable during evening hours. Scott M. noted, "Good location to see area attractions. Hookups we're good."

Standard campground amenities include restrooms, showers, a dump station, and WiFi access. The facility allows campfires and provides basic camping infrastructure. Some reviewers mention ATV activity from cabin guests, which can add noise during daytime hours. Extended-stay families contribute to a more residential feel compared to typical overnight camping.

For different camping experiences, Benbow Valley RV Resort offers an alternative just southwest of this location.

Many campers appreciated the spacious, well-maintained sites with easy access. However, noise issues from highway traffic and some disruptive guests were noted concerns. The location provides good access to area attractions.

Okay

It’s a ok place to stay. There are a lot of cats on property which got our dog riled up. Good location to see area attractions. Hookups we’re good. Seems like a lot of extended guests in cabins. If we stay again we’ll get a pull through site rather than back in. It didn’t help that we had a family with 2 ATVs staying in a cabin right by us and they’re kids (guessing ages 10-14) would drive around the camp for hours at a time. First time I’ve seen that at a koa.

Just OK

We stayed one night on a trip down the 101. Lots of highway noise, no fire pits, seems like a lot of families here long term. Managers were nice.
