Top Benbow Hotel Reviews

Benbow Historic Inn

Benbow Historic Inn

10/10 Excellent
"We LOVE the Benbow Inn. It is a unique and cherished inn that my family has visited for over 75 years. The staff are friendly (one even played the piano while I was reading in the main room), and the grounds and building are extraordinary, beautiful, and of a bygone era. Also, not to be missed: scones and tea at 3:00!"

"The property is very cute and cozy as well as clean. We loved the cats that greet you upon arrival. The only minor complaint is that you have to ask for ice at the front desk, which is closed overnight and was not open when we departed, but the staff was lovely when we checked in the night before and we had a great stay."

"Very quiet location. Room was clean and comfortable. The only thing I would have added is a chair and desk, maybe instead of the chest of drawers which I never use. Check-in was quick and easy and our request for downstairs rooms was honored."

Redwoods River Resort

10/10 Excellent
"★★★★★ An absolute slice of old-school redwood magic We had an incredible stay at Redwoods River Resort—everything about it was simply amazing. The location is completely unbeatable, offering that classic, old-school campground vibe nestled right in the heart of the majestic redwoods. We stayed in one of the lodge rooms, and it was super clean, cozy, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we could possibly need. The staff across the board were wonderful and went out of their way to be great hosts. A major highlight of the trip was the on-site pub. It's easily the best feature of the resort, with delicious food and an incredible atmosphere. Even better, the pub staff were exceptionally accommodating with dietary preferences, easily navigating both gluten-free and vegetarian options. If you're looking for the ultimate authentic redwood getaway with fantastic amenities and great food, this is the place. We can't wait to come back!"
