Nice farm and place, felt safe. I would recommend adding signs or something to show indicate where the designated lots and campsites are

Another guest thought it was ok to hit on my wife after I drove away. I told him that wasn’t respectful. That turned into him leaving then lying saying I threatened him and the host believing the first thing he heard regarding an incident. The neighbors (a nosy Filipina lady as described by the host) went along with the story and we were forced to leave for something that didn’t happen. Very disrespectful and passive aggressive.

Aloha. I didnt know what to expect upon driving to the property I noticed there were 2 cows momma & it's baby [ not] small tho
As I was checking around was very dismayed that there wasn't propane for the shower only a empty tank okay, but the thing they called a bunk house was nothing more then a shack. Lucky I had a huge plastic tarp in my car to cover the tiny couch bed thingy& a beach blanket to cover with. Thank god there were a string of solar lights I didn't break a leg
It did have some cooking utensils & some spices where a cook stove was there But no running water so u had to walk to the hang out place 2 icky couches were. No propane for cooking stove but had running water so I did compromise. But surely feel I was Ripped off by the description & should get a refund glad I didn't book more. As a animal lover I felt like I was dersserting the poor cows no food or feed insight but the watering tub was empty for a long long time I crawled under the barb wire to get the tub & fill for water at least .I found a recipe in the garbage from 2023 so those cows were with out water how long.. Iam filing a report for animal neglect
So sorry stay away !!!!

The site is not well kept. No host greeting so no guidance on the waterfall. Lwft a day early.

You certainly do get what you pay for. GPS couldn’t find this location-neither Google nor Apple Maps. No host on site. Poor directions on where to stay. Shower gave creepy vibes. I’m not sure where the pics the host came from, but that ‘private secluded waterfall’ is straight out of a horror movie. Stairs to start to hike were overgrown with weeds. Tops toe offs to the river below is comparable to repelling down a mud hill. Once at the water, didn’t feel safe to enter soooo. There is a ‘common area’ but I did not hang out there. WiFi did not work. But, it’s cheap.

Great spot to park and sleep for the night as long as you enjoy the farm feel. Cows, chickens and all the birds to wake you up in the morning. I would definitely park here again!
