Granted this park was around in the 70s, but it's starting to show. My parents used to stay here. I've driven by it hundreds of times in the 80s and 90s and early 2000s. It always appeared so green and landscaped, and there were always many RVs parked in the spaces. However, when I stayed here on the 21st of July 25, it was terrible. They no longer water the landscaping, however, the grass was in such great shape at one time that it is still there. It's dry and dead, sticks to your shoes and the dog. Then of course it gets tracked into your RV. There is some road noise at night, but the highway is right there..so that's a given. Did not utilize the showers, however, they did appear clean. Water pressure was low, which may have contributed to the death of the landscaping. Garbage was piled high in all the containers. Most were emptied on Monday morning. Several full-timers. Many park models. There is a walkway that runs under the highway to get to the Benbow Lodge. Obviously, no water spared on this side. Gorgeous landscaping, a nice bar, and restaurant. Also al fresco dining is dependent on the weather of course.

Fantastic little cabin with full amenities. Kitchen, bedroom, bathroom. Hideaway bed in the living room couch. Some dishes provided, dishwasher and apartment sized fridge. Plenty of people here, RV, tent and cabin sites. Great place to make Basecamp if planning for the avenue of the giants. Reasonable rates, and golf cart rentals are available. Staff was friendly, and check-in was an absolute breeze.

The KOA campground staff were pleasant and informative people. The RV sites were paved & level and had working electric, water & sewer. The restrooms & showers were clean and the swimming pool is big. However, this campground is showing signs of age & neglect. There is no green grass on the golf course or around the RV sites. Dry dead grass is what you will find. It is neither visually appealing nor scenic. Most of the cabins were unoccupied, and were also unavailable for rent as the "cleaning staff" were reportedly on vacation. No temp cleaning help?...apparently not. Too bad...our friends were willing to pay whatever the cost was for a Mon thru Fri stay. Likely an amount that would have far exceeded the cost of hiring a temp cleaning person. The campground is located a short distance off Highway 101. The traffic noise was, at times, quite loud. This isn't the worst KOA I have ever seen, but it is far from the best. It is an adequate campground for a short stay.

Great place to stay after decompressing from camping. We were very pleased to have a nice pool, hot tub, and laundry. We stayed during 4th of July week and many of the other RVs were very festive. The cabin was great, but the floor was a bit dirty and we would have preferred a stiffer mattress.

We booked tonight saw that they had great amenities. Got there no one was available at the office it was 5:00 this is in the middle of May. Could not access the pool could not access the hot tub. All you could have was the laundromat. Bathrooms are old for the campers or RVs. The lights are on timers and you go dark while you're standing in a shower. Price we had to pay for this place was totally not worth it. We had to walk a quarter mile to get to the bathroom from our back in space. Grounds are for golfers only.

Friendly staff upon check in. Nice area just down the freeway from Avenue of Giants. Little access path to river that runs behind the grounds. Full hook ups. Basketball court was nice(balls were all deflated though) Lil playground for younger kids. The showers and bathrooms were super nice, water pressure was great and it got hot.

Comfortable cabins with A/C, fans, kitchen facilities and WiFi. Good base for exploring the giant redwoods.

Such a great experience! Great campsites, clean bathrooms and showers, a well stocked store, and lots of amenities. Rerouting our trip home so we can stay here again.

First of all, the place is pretty great. But the most notable is the care and concern of every person we encountered on their staff. By far, our best experience so far at a camp ground. The customer service of this site should be a model for KOA campgrounds. (They are usually pretty good anyway) Even the younger staff were friendly, helpful, lots of smiles! Just great! I can only give them 5 stars, but I will give them 6 smiles! 😃😃😃😃😃😃

Very nice campground. The cabin was overall clean but the loft carpet was a little dirty. Our door key card wasn’t activated at first but when I went back to get it activated the lady was very kind and helpful. The space in the cabin was very comfortable. They have excellent customer service that is solution-oriented if an issue arises.

I loved the setup it was very nice my first time traveling with my cousins to a local concert which was nice my only concern was the General Store on the grounds there were no prices listed & I let the cashier kno & all she said was let me see how much it would cost me.

All team members were so inviting, friendly, caring and very enthusiastic about their KOA. So great to see the pride these folks have and rightfully should have for this is a top notch KOA facility.

This KOA is a great jumping off point for visiting Avenue of the Giants and the surrounding area. The staff are exceptionally nice and accommodating. We loved our spacious lot and all of the areas to walk your dog. I would stay here again!

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 campground is on the Eel River amongst the beautiful Redwoods in Northern California. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. We stayed there for the New Year Eve fireworks. The show was a nice way to kick off the new year. We will definitely be back.
