I never got bored living here. Every day I got to wake up and go to the beach just minutes away from home, or my cousins and I would have a fishing contest to see who could catch the most fish. We would also go paddling up the river to lay nets down to catch some ono (delicious) crab for dinner. Learn more about this land: Aloha! Looking for a place to lounge and adventure?

Kauilani is a fantastic host!

Kauilani is incredibly responsive to messages and encourages feedback about the campsite. We had no constructive criticism to offer because everything exceeded our expectations. From the solar lantern on the picnic table to illuminate the campsite to the impeccably clean hot shower and flush toilet, our stay was very enjoyable and we would certainly return. We recommend the bonfire / firewood add-on because Kauilani provides a Solo Stove with a wind-proof lighter, fire starters, a Duraflame log + hardwood logs in a waterproof tote tub to get your fire going quickly and effectively. Our fire burned for hours even through several bouts of rain. Lastly, we were impressed that there was a nice, large stainless steel utility sink, water spigot in our site, and not a whiff of mildew on the shower curtain or in the restroom - it actually smelled quite pleasant! Lastly, Kauilani provided a detailed list of recommendations for local establishments and was very warm and welcoming. We highly recommend the Mangrove Lounge!

Lounge 2

This is a nice place with a nice host, who is very accommodating. There are lots of little perks, such as subtle lighting, warm shower, great portable solar lamp, potable water, tarp, hammer, and pegs etc.., plus the most amazing dawn chorus from all the birds and gentle lapping of the nearby brackish water. For one person it’s definitely too expensive @$85 per night +taxes & fees. Much better value for a group or family. At this price it’s appropriate to have more than one toilet on site. You do feel secure here, and there’s excessive 0 mph signs on the way in. Trust me, if a rogue gust of wind makes your car go to 3 mph, you’ll receive feedback. Mahalo for an enjoyable stay for my birthday 😊

This is a lovely place to stay with a great host. We loved our spot down by the ocean and only wished for one more night. The hot showers were a nice treat after three days of beach showers. Highly recommend this stay.

We loved staying on this property! Very beautiful property and welcoming host . Bathroom and shower was a neat set up very clean ! Property was very easy to find with the directions . Great location to explore the north shore . Host was very quick to answer and very helpful with suggestions! Price is a bit steep especially if you are already renting a van compared to other HipCamps . Was hoping to be a bit closer to the beach .

It was a really nice campground. The owner set up everything we asked for really well and provided extra stakes that were helpful as I forgot the ones for my tent. The river is good for paddle boarding and had a good launch area to the ocean. We were the only campers there so that was a plus as we got the shower and site to ourselves. Would recommend!

Super quiet and nice experience - tucked away but close to all amenities. Host is very kind and helpful! Great tent/picnic table areas to utilize. Great for our camper-van experience
