Spring in Benbow brings blossoms, warm sunny days, and blooming gardens. This photo was taken on our Hotel Terrace.

Mother's day is comming and we have some special things going on that weekend. Saturday, May 10th we are having our Portalupi Winemaker Dinner, a Cookie Lee Jewelry show and on Sunday, May 11th we have a scrumptous Mother's Day Buffet planned. We will be seating for brunch from 9AM to 2:30. Call for reservations. If you need some gift ideas for Mom - take her out for a great meal or check out our hotel gift shop. We have Mimi Mouche and Holly Yashi Jewelry, plus beautiful beaded silk scarves and more.

The golf course was aerated almost 2 weeks ago and the greens have healed and it's in great shape. We are gearing-up for the summer season and hiring various postions at the Hotel and at the Resort and Golf Course. Maintenence crews are busy getting the grounds planted with flowers.

We host work/exchange students from countries all over the world. We will be welcoming students from Russia next week. We currently have students from Thailand and Moldavia. They are an absolute pleasure to have here. All of them are bright and curious to learn about our culture and hone their English skills. Our permanent staff also learns about their language and culture...the exchange is very positive. We look forward to meeting our new students and it's always sad to say farewell to them when they must head for home. The staff at Benbow looks forward to seeing you as our guest, soon.
