Benson KOA Journey

Benson KOA Journey is absolutely Amazing! 🙌
Staff, facilities, star gazing at night was incredible. I would recommend Benson KOA to everyone who wants a world class spectacular camping experience. Thank you, Benson KOA for a wonderful memory. 🤗

We tent camped. Site was clean, staff was friendly, and the amenities were great. Nice activity room for the family. Pool and hot tub were very clean and wonderful to use! Location is great, we visited Tucson, Tomestone, and Bisbee.

Michael and Lori were super caring and wonderful to talk to. Very helpful and accommodating. The atmosphere was peaceful and perhaps the most quiet KOA I and my hubby have ever stayed at. We went to stay for 2 nights and ended staying for 3 more.  When we arrived, the beautiful pool was not yet open, but opened the day before we checked out. The pool is a “ labor of love”💕 and I got to be the first one in!! I felt privileged .

Thank you Michael and Lori for your excellent hospitality. Many blessings!

Stayed 2 nights in a Kabin. The cabin included a window AC & ceiling fan, small refrigerator and TV.  The chairs are not real comfortable, basic small wooden seat.  The swing on porch is nice when the weather is nice and there's a large picnic table under a tree.  Front RV spaces were in less shade than those in the back. The tent area looked very nice with a covered grill & sink.

Finally a KOA where you don't hear the highway noise. It is at the end of a sorry gravel road, and behind it is a vast expanse of shrubbery, so there are lots of birds and cottontail rabbits. We saw quail and a roadrunner right by our campsite.
The lady in charge, Kate, was super nice and went out of her way for us. She offered us a different site that had shade. The bathrooms/ showers were spotless clean. This campground reconciled me with KOA.

The camping cabin was extremely clean, had great extra amenities, and was well lit and safe. The grounds are very well maintained. The manager/owner takes pride in this property and it shows! I would rate this one of the best KOA properties in North America. The service was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. There are many sites in the area so make sure to make time to go see.

We only stayed one night in one of the cabins, but I want to come back and stay longer.   The front area is pretty bare, set up to accommodate RVs efficiently, but the back area has many trees and is peaceful and lovely.  The spaces are generous and shaded and include picnic tables and bbq grills. The tent spaces have nice level tent platforms, and an electric outlet so you can charge your devices (!). There is a large area at the back that can accommodate groups, and the owner told me that they can bring in a port-a-potty for groups in that area, since the walk to the bathrooms would be a bit long. The bathrooms were great! Super clean, spacious and attractive. I did wish there was a handheld shower.
There's a rec room with a pool table near the office, and that's where the coffee bar is. There's a microwave in there too.
Ok, on to the birds! I'm a birder and this is a great spot to see Vermillion flycatchers, a variety of warblers, doves, phainopepla, roadrunners....we were there in May and it will vary seasonally. The highlight for me was the many lesser nighthawks that are attracted to the bugs which are attracted to the lights at the front of the office. We sat out at a picnic table at the front for about an hour watching the moonrise and about 6 nighthawks that were catching bugs above us. Then I came out late to use the restroom, and there were at least 20! So cool. The owner says they get owls, too, but we didn't see one. Maybe next time!
Note on the pool: the owners have been working on it for a long time but they told me it's about done. It looks like it will be very nice, with a hot tub and a poolside shower.
Also, some of the older pics show a water feature (brook?) that's currently dry. Just fyi.
Super great place to stay. We're thinking about returning with a group of friends and using it as a base to explore the area...it looks like there's lots to see and do, if you like nature, especially birding.

Found this KOA on our way west to Joshua Tree from Texas. The campground is just before Tucson and away from the crowds. The staff were very friendly and went above and beyond to help us out. The restrooms and showers are brand new and very well maintained. The park is surrounded by really nice vistas and is far enough from the highway to keep it quiet but it’s still a short drive away. The pool and hot tub are currently under construction but they look amazing so far. Hope to be by again soon. Thanks for having us. 🙏

We stayed here for 3 nights in our 30 foot travel trailer, with full hookups. It was a great experience. They are doing some updating to the campground. The bathrooms, showers, laundry facility and office were all super clean, 5 star. The workers were very pleasant and knowledgeable. We were not sure what to expect this far south but were pleasantly surprised. We would stay here again, no doubt.

Excellent rv park. Friendly staff.  Quiet. Big spacious sites and connections were all in great shape. Cable(we didn't use it) Wifi was ok for phones or tablets, but it did keep going in and out. Very clean grounds and facilities. Store,  propane, recroom(the grandkids loved it), playground and dog park, horse shoes & sand bag game.   A small pool and spa is being put in but wasn't open yet, so that will be a fun addition. There were lots of Mesquite trees in the back area, but they didn't have any leaves at this time of year, so shade was none, but it's just starting to warm up here.  Good central location for area attractions like Tombstone, Colossal Cave, Kartchner Caverns,  Chiricahua National Monument, Mount Lemmon, Saguaro National Park, Fort Bowie. Reasonable price.
Thank you, BENSON KOA!

We stayed here over Thanksgiving week, driving from California.  We arrived late, but everything was setup. We loved that it is off the road - very quiet!  Great signage so even late at night we had no issue finding it.  It is clear they are working on changes so it will be interesting to see what they do.  We would definitely go back again!
