The best ranch camping near Hawi

·

Set up camp on a working ranch in Hawi and wake to the sound of horses and the smell of fresh earth. You’ll find over a dozen ranch stays here, with prices dipping as low as $30 a night and averaging around $60. Top picks include Silver Oak Sunsets (26 reviews), where ocean views meet wide pasture skies, Farm View Cabanas (24 reviews) with its breezy open-air shelters, and the quirky Roadside Fruit Stand Exotic Orchard (2 reviews). Expect simple comforts—most spots offer toilets, showers, and allow campfires. Hawi’s ranch camps put you close to horseback riding, rugged hiking trails, and the north shore’s wave breaks. This is ranch camping, stripped down and tuned in to the rhythms of the Big Island.

We are a 5th generation family farm on the slopes of Haleakala, just a 3 mile drive up from historic Makawao town. Our great grandfather purchased a 40 acre ranch in 1957 as his retirement, homestead dream. With rolling hills of pastures, our farm is the ideal location for a secluded camping getaway with ocean views and Maui. Sadly, our property was hit severely by the August 2023 fires caused by downed electric lines. Your support of camping on our family farm helps us recover little by little and help us maintain such a huge responsibility of weeding invasive trees and weeds, along with repairs and fence building after so much loss.

We have a hidden exotic fruit orchard tucked away through rolling green hills, perched over the Hamakua cliffs, overlooking the pacific. We sell our fruits ripe and cut ready to eat at our roadside fruit stand, open 10-6 daily including holidays! We serve local fresh juices and machete open coconuts to drink ice cold. We grow mango, durian, lilikoi, star fruit, chocolate sapote, buddhas hand citrus, finger limes, tangerines and tangelos, jackfruit, tree grapes, mangosteen, white pineapples, mountain apples, berries, spices and much more.

Not to mention our friendly farm cats. We are a community of a few passionate farmers and fruit lovers. There’s a family- myself Rose, my partner Matthew and our daughter Mela, plus several awesome guys and girls who help out in different areas to grow our lives together!
