Kulanaokuaiki Campground

8 sites · RVs, Tents In Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park

I'm shooting east from site number 9 at 10:30p. Camping at Namakanipaio costs $20 per night $15 if you already have a Volcano's park pass. These sites get less costal moisture at night than camping in the national park and are 3 miles from the park entrance.

Weekend Trip to Faris' Farm

My sister and I stayed here for two days while exploring the surrounding area- and I can’t say enough good things about the property, Patrick and Brian, and our accommodations. Everything was so thoughtful and comfortable, falling asleep to the sound of frogs at night and waking up for homemade breakfast each morning was such a treat. Patrick and Brian were so knowledgeable and more than willing to answer any question we had, and it really felt like we were staying with friends. Showering (hot water!) surrounded by foliage was perfection as well. If we’re ever on the big island again- we’d stay here in a heartbeat.

1 night at Yip Camp and Eco-Retreat Center

It was a great camping there with jungle all around you , nice and peaceful atmosphere there.

1 night at Yip Camp and Eco-Retreat Center

My partner and I booked a last minute one night trip from Oahu to Big Island because of Kīlauea’s eruption. Thomas’s spot was very easy to find and extremely close to volcanoes national park. He extended a very warm welcome upon our arrival, even though we got in a bit later than anticipated. He gave us a quick tour of the spot, which was very peaceful and beautiful. While we ended up staying in the park most of the night due to Kīlauea‘s activity, he was extremely accommodating. If ever taking a multi-day trip back to Big Island to explore Hilo side, will definitely stay at his property again!

1 night at @FarmToTableHawaii

Justine’s camp is beautiful!! Well stocked kitchen, outhouse and hot water shower!! I appreciated being a bit out of town as you get to wake up with the birds. Not a far drive from hilo and just down the road is a beautiful cliff spot. Justine is a kind and generous host. She gave great suggestions on best places to eat and farmers markets to see. Honestly just let her know what you hope to see and she'll help make it a reality!

Weekend Trip to Yip Camp and Eco-Retreat Center

I loved my stay at Thomas’s place so much! His house is far out in the middle of a forest — perfect if you’re looking to disconnect and get into some nature. There is WiFi signal there, so that’s good. At first the outdoor shower phased me - but I actually fell in love with looking up at the moon while showering. Water is Hot. A sink would be a nice addition. Also, Thomas’s dog Yip is such a cutie! It’s chilly in the forest — perfect if you’re sleeping in your car.

Weekend Trip to Wild Blue Water Ranch

We had the best experience camping at Blaze and Shawn’s property. Stunning waterfront views and well tended trees and gardens are a feature here. The site was perfect for our campervan and the restroom and shower exceeded our expectations. It was a perfect stop in our circumnavigation of the island. Thank you for your hospitality It was a pleasure being your guest.

Weekend Trip to The Tranquil Homestead

My husband and I loved that Esther and Christopher's hospitality made us feel like family. Their property was beautiful! The little cabin we rented was a perfect space for two. The bathroom, adorable and a porch where you could get fresh air and admire the beauty of Hawaii Island was amazing. And then there were their ducks that greeted us in the mornings! It was a short stay but an awesome one! Mahalo Esther and Christopher for your welcoming hospitality!

Patrick's spot is beautiful and clean, and Patrick and Brian are excellent hosts. I loved meeting the animals and talking about plants with the hosts. Would definitely recommend this sweet private bungalow!

Cabin worked great! It's well stocked for the kitchen, and the outdoor shower was warm and had great water pressure. Directions made it easy to find, and you're pretty well removed from traffic and people. I will mention two things: the tree frogs and some wild pigs are pretty active at night, so you may need earplugs. Second is that you'll wake up with the sun, so if that's not in your plans, a sleep mask wouldn't go amiss.

Here's the tent, outdoor kitchen, and the green potty tent.

3 nights at House of Light Glamping & Bathhouse

House of Light Glamping is an amazing experience. Close enough to Hilo and the attractions and yet just far enough out of town for peace and quiet. The bathhouse is outstanding - clean, hot water, full bath. The toilets were easy to use as well. There are 4 acres of land to explore. Joy is a welcoming and informative host. The space attracts heart centered people.

Treehouse Green Farm and Garden

3 sites · Tents20 acres · Mountain View, HI

The Treehouse Farm campsites are about 20 minutes from Volcano National Park, and 40 minutes from Hilo airport and the beaches. The Treehouse Cannabis Garden is a medical grow site and the perfect remote setting for healing and relaxing. The Greenhouse and Solar Camping sites are in the garden. The Campervan site is in the driveway. A trail separates the camping area from the treehouse and the outdoor bath amenities with a jungle vibe. Cannabis consumers and non Cannabis consumers enjoy the serenity of the garden camping area. This is a unique camping experience. It's not glamping but if you wish we can set you up with extras like a tent setup, ac electric, a cooler with ice, an educational tour and more are available at additional cost. It's important to us and the patients we serve that we grow Cannabis year round. However, sometimes due to forces out of our control, our garden may not be as pictured. Like most outdoor gardens on the big island we harvest at the end of our long growing season in August or September. During the colder, rainier and shortest days of the year (Nov.-Jan.) we have most likely harvested the majority of plants and have started new sprouts. Be sure to check out our blog for the latest updates in the garden. The Cannabis Garden Greenhouse Site is a bit more glampish but definitely not glamorous. It is comfortable inside the popup screened area under the transparent tarp. It's dry and easy to setup an air mattress under the mosquito net. The treehouse was designed and built within a pre-existing canvas of native Ohia and Hapuu forested canvas. The house was not designed around human needs but around the existing environment. Spiritual visitors can find peace here. We give thanks to Hawaiian Gods Lono, Ku, Kanaloa and Kane. Many hours have been dedicated to gratitude, permission and love for other Hawaiian Gods like Waikea and Goddesses like Pele's equally powerful Sister, Hiʻiaka. https://www.nps.gov/articles/pele-and-hiiaka.htm As the sun begins to peek through the Ohia trees, the hapuu tree ferns call up the other native ferns and together the symphony greets the Sun E Ala E! E ala e Ka la i kahikina I ka moana Ka moana hohonu Pi’i ka lewa Ka lewa nu’u I kahikina Aia ka la. E ala e! Awaken/Arise The sun in the east From the ocean The ocean deep Climbing (to) the heavens The heaven highest In the east There is the sun Awaken! As the temperatures slowly rise, it's time to start preparing for another amazing day on Hawaii Island. This chant, shared by Anakala Kimo Awai of Hilo and the Windward Ahupuaʻa Kūpuna, is both a greeting to the morning sun and a request for inspiration from Ke Akua, creation, or our ancestors. It was danced by Pele's sister Kapoulakinau on Niʻihau, marking it as one of the earliest hula kiʻi. Hiki Mai Ka La Hiki mai, hiki mai ka lā Aloha wale, ka lā e kau nei Aia malalo o Kawaihoa A ka lalo o Kauaʻi O Lehua Here it comes, here comes the Sun How I love the Sun in the sky There below is Kawaihoa On the incline of Kauaʻi Is Lehua Tips to help you get ready for your upcoming adventures at the treehouse farm and garden greenhouse campsite. 1. Check Your Gear First things first, let's start with the basics – Whether it is checking the gas and oil in your campervan or finally giving your tent that deep clean it deserves. In the rainforest, it's nice to spray some waterproofing for an extra layer of protection on your rainfly. But you will be inside the 8x8 tent that's inside the dry greenhouse tent 10x20. So don't water proof your tent for our campsite but consider water proofing your hiking boots if you plan on hiking our native forests. Remember to give clean your sleeping bags before heading out. The nearest washer and dryer are 30minutes away. Clean gear will feel good. So grab your cleaning supplies and get to work – your gear will thank you! 2. Test Out New Gear Thinking of investing in some shiny new camping gear this season? Before you embark test out your new gear closer to home. This will give you the opportunity to familiarize yourself with your new equipment, work out any kinks, and ensure everything is in working order before you venture to Hawaii. 3. Plan Your Trip Whether you're dreaming of mountains, rivers, beaches, trailers or ocean adventures, now is the time to start researching destinations, booking manta ray night dives, dolphin swims and mapping out your routes before you arrive will give you something to look forward to as you countdown the days until your flight. 4. Prepare for your visit by connecting with your host in advance. You'll want someone on site to greet you and unlock the gate. Mobile phone service may not be available as you near the property. So please be sure to download the pdf to your device. Let us know if the directions seem unclear when we email then to you. Please don't rely on Google maps or intuition for directions. 5. We are remote. Get oriented with directions before you leave for the property. 6. Our roads are in good shape but the quality does vary when we get a lot of rain. Once you make it to the property, pull all the way into the driveway. If you've provided us with your check in time, someone will come out to greet you. We will then show you to your spot so you can get setup. It's not a problem to arrive or check in later. Signs on the path will help you find your campsite. Consider setting up your camp before dark. 7. Prior to arriving, take a little time to learn about Hawaiian culture. Kū, Kanaloa, Kāne and Lono rule here. When you arrive you'll be shown where to ask for entry into the forest. To better understand where you'll be staying please consider reading the Ka Moolelo O Hi'iakaikapoliopele. This is the land of Hi'iaka. Additional Tips Inspect Your Equipment Start with the basics: check your campervan's gas and oil or give your tent a thorough clean. At our campsite, your tent will be sheltered within a greenhouse, making extra waterproofing unnecessary. However, waterproofing your hiking boots is advisable for forest adventures. Clean gear is crucial for a comfortable experience. Familiarize Yourself with New Equipment Test new camping gear close to home to familiarize yourself with its features, ensuring everything is perfect for your adventure in Hawaii. Organize Your Adventure Plan now for your dream of mountains, rivers, beaches, or oceanic adventures. Book your manta ray night dives and dolphin swims early, and map out your excursions for a seamless experience. Seek Knowledge Immerse yourself in Hawaiian culture by learning the following chants, connecting with the land and its ancestors. E Hō Mai E hō mai Ka ʻike mai luna mai ē ʻO nā mea huna noʻeau O nā mele ē E hō mai E hō mai E hō mai Repeated three times, each with an increasing pitch, this chant makes a heartfelt request for knowledge, connecting us to the wisdom of our ancestors and the depth of Hawaiian cultural heritage. Grant us knowledge from above The things of knowledge hidden in the chants Grant us Grant us Grant us By embracing these chants, you not only prepare for a physical journey through the beauty of Hawaii Island but also embark on a spiritual journey, deepening your connection to the rich tapestry of Hawaiian culture and history. We also practice Vipassana. Join us for a sit. https://www.dhamma.org/en/ Cannabis Farm and Garden Article in Outside Online https://treehouse.farm/cannabis-farm-garden/

Mahina Hawaiian Moon

1 site · RV, Tent20 acres · Pahoa, HI

Camp under a starry sky with an unobstructed view of Mount Kilauea across a vast and bare moon-like landscape. Fire pit with a grill for cooking, benches, and a beautiful new composting toilet structure made from local albizia, ohia, and guava wood. Mostly hot and sunny, with occasional rain. Access to Volcanoes National Park and Kehena Beach. Learn more about this land: Lava covered the site on 5 September 1990, after more than a thousand years of peaceful fertility. The flow met the Hakuma horst and was diverted north, filling the village of Kalapana and the beautiful Kaimu Bay. Lava continued to flow in the area for another 20 years, until 2011. We are restoring the fertility by bringing in mulch and soil and planting coconuts, mango trees, moringa, plumeria, figs, dragonfruits, and more. Near the camp sites we've recently constructed a house out of local materials; it provides some shelter from the nearly constant trade winds. Premium strawberry guava BBQ firewood can be purchased by prior arrangement. There's a shower with cold water; it doesn't get very cold! 1 mile from ocean cliffs, 2 miles to a basic grocery store and a great weekly farmers market, 2.5 miles to Volcanoes National Park, 5 miles to Kehena public black sand beach at the base of the cliffs, with a community drum circle on Sundays. Welcome to the wild coast of South Puna! Optionally produce from our nearby rainforest garden. We may offer guided tours to local historical caves and bicycle trips to hidden beaches deep inside Volcanoes National Park.
