About the only thing we really liked is the location. A good point to stop on way north from San Francisco to Ashland, OR. We’ve stayed here for years, but probably won’t again.

The Benbow really needs a total remodel. Rooms are very dated, bed was terrible, and bathrooms are outdated.. Sink took forever to drain, no makeup mirror, etc.

Excellent

We enjoyed a few days visiting the wonderful redwoods and spent cozy nights at the Benbow Inn. The atmosphere was warm and we were treated like family. We gathered in the living room, played cards and enjoyed cocktails at the bar and several wonderful meals in the diningroom. Christmas was a perfect time to visit; the halls were decked with holiday decorations and the Christmas carolers were a lovely surprise.
