==History==
The Children of Arthur Benbow purchased 1,288 acres from Ernest Linser and also some land from John Kamper, Jack Bowden and a Mr. Peirce in 1922. It soon became apparent that ranching would not be sufficient to meet their needs so the family decided to construct the resort hotel that still stands today.〔 The children were Joseph, Evangeline, Burtis, Clara, Helen, Jessie, Loleta, Walter and Robert. Eight of these children were born in Humboldt County.〔 In the early years the Inn was known as the "Hotel Benbow."〔 It opened on July 17, 1926.〔 The electricity for the hotel came from two diesel generators until a dam and powerhouse was completed on the south fork of the Eel River.〔 The post office was established on December 30, 1929 and operated at Benbow from until it was merged with Garberville on January 31, 1953.〔 The Tudorbethan style inn is still in operation as the premier hotel property on US Route 101 between Humboldt Bay and the San Francisco Bay Area.〔
