Benbow Lake SRA Comments & Reviews
Visited Benbow Lake SRA Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Benbow Lake SRA?
We camped at site 12 and it looks nothing like the pictures. People should also know about the one way heavily pot holed road, it’s not great if you’re pulling a small trailer!
Hi Steve,
We took the photos of the campsites in mid 2022 so they are all current. What was different about site #12? Did they cut some trees down?
