As all the land here is born of lava, many moons ago this land began to host plants and critters. Long after, it was sculpted and a number of families and farmers have contributed to what we have today. An abundance of fruit and vegetables within sight of the ocean. Peaceful breezes and warming sun make for unparalleled tranquility. Today the land still gives back to its visitors.
Come recharge.
As this is agricultural lands, there are many critters. Dogs, chickens, pheasants, peacock, mongoose, and many birds. Tge invasive coqui frog is annoying to some and calming to others.
The micro climate here swings from warm and dry to wet quickly. Best to always prepare for rain.
There is snorkeling, beaches, local food, Cafe, BBQ, poke, fish-n-chips, grocery, Sunday farmers market and hiking nearby.
It is peaceful here, but also an active farming community.
As an organic farm, we put alot of effort into soil building and as such, there are soft places that will be damaged by the weight of a vehicle. Staying on the driveway is best. We will guide you to where you need to go.
Our road is paved, but bumpy. Any vehicle will make it without damage if driven slowly. 1 to 4mph tops. *Be sure to avoid the camper rental companies that restrict certain roads.
Aloha and have a great day.

Aloha campers, if you are looking for a safe, quiet place to park your campervan for the night, you’ve come to the right spot. We offer a secluded, private parking area located at the foot of Mauna Loa in an agricultural region on the Big Island of Hawaii. The property features sweeping ocean views with beautiful sunrises and sunsets overlooking the Pacific Ocean, South Point, and Pohue Bay.
There are no streetlights in the area and minimal lighting on the property, making it very dark at night — perfect for stargazing.
We are ideally located on the southwest side of the Big Island, about 50 miles from Kailua–Kona and 50 miles from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Just two blocks south of the main highway (Hawaii Belt Road), our large gated lot in Ocean View Ranchos is the perfect campervan staging area for popular destinations on the east, south, and west sides of the island.
It’s a short drive to Punaluʻu Bake Shop, Black Sands Beach, South Point (the southernmost point in the U.S.), and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, home to one of the most active volcanoes on the planet, Kīlauea — only an hour away.
We know firsthand how difficult it can be to secure safe overnight parking, as the State of Hawaii doesn’t allow it on public roadways.
This is no-frills overnight parking. There is currently no running water, but we do provide a porta-potty for guests. We plan to add an outdoor shower and running water in the near future.

Welcome to our extraordinary off-grid retreat on the Big Island of Hawaii—featured on Discovery Channel’s Homestead Rescue: Between Two Volcanoes. Nestled between Mauna Loa and Kīlauea in the Kaʻū District, our 100-acre working farm offers guests a one-of-a-kind experience in nature, culture, and adventure.
Just 10 minutes from Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park and a short drive from Punaluʻu Black Sand Beach, this location is a dream for explorers, stargazers, and nature lovers. Whether you're looking for solitude, eco-tourism, wellness, digital detox, or an enriching family getaway, this is the place!
Step outside and you’re immersed in a living classroom of native flora, lava tubes, fruit orchards, and starlit skies. Wander trails through macnut groves, sip fresh coconut water under the monkeypod tree, or pick fruit straight from the trees—mango, banana, lilikoi, citrus, and more. Kids love the three-level treehouse, and families enjoy meeting our friendly farm animals: horses, cows, and farm dogs.
At night, the Kaʻū Desert transforms into one of the darkest skies in the world. With no city lights for miles, stargazing is beyond incredible. Lay back with a blanket and marvel at the Milky Way, constellations, and even passing satellites or meteor showers.
Our farm is rooted in Hawaiian values of sustainability, ʻohana (family), and aloha ʻāina (love for the land). We're happy to offer an optional guided farm tour or share stories about off-grid living and the volcanic history of the land. Guests leave not only rested, but deeply connected to the land and local culture.
Please note: we are truly off the beaten path—no streetlights, no traffic, and no tourists. The final stretch of road is unpaved and best suited for SUVs

We had a wonderful time staying there and Brannon was a fantastic host and took great care of us. The ocean view was amazing and it was nice to have so much open space. Also the other people staying there were really fun to hang out with and it was a great community. Also the location is really easy to get to and the roads are good all the way there. The L&L Hawaiian Barbecue restaurant was right down the road and it had great food

Robert was very communicative with directing us to the site and where to stay once we arrived and where amenities were located! We liked being on the property for the night and really loved having a nice, very clean bathroom and shower! We were the only ones on the property that evening but you might have neighbors close if there were multiple groups staying at one time! This spot was a great choice for us in this southern area of the island!

Eddie’s place is awesome! Great views, great vibes. The entire property is on top of the 1907 Mauna Loa lava flow. There is a nice flat spot that is perfect for a camper van, and it opens out to an incredible vista of lava and the Pacific in the distance. We felt super secluded and safe during our stay, while also being just a short drive from great snorkeling and other attractions along the SW region of the Big Island. The bathroom was clean and had everything we needed at the end of a long day. Eddie is a great host and he and his two dogs, Coconut and Ocho, made us feel very welcome. Just book it! Mahalo Eddie 🤙

The property was undeveloped but that made it fairly private and more immersive. We saw a lot of birds, which we loved. Colin was very communicative which was helpful in finding our spot and enjoying our time there. If you’re looking for a spot to just sleep for a night, this is a great choice! But if you want more amenities, it might be best to look elsewhere.

We had a beautiful view from our campervan parking pad.
We arrived just at dark on a Christmas Eve. The drive in is well paved, though moderately bumpy.
Because we caught some rain overnight, I was concerned about traction the next morning for our departure. The pad and driveway presented no problem.
We were a close distance to a fire ring and porta potty. The restroom was very clean.

We spent one night on Bob’s beautiful property and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The place was very peaceful, we felt completely safe, and having a bathroom with a shower was a big plus.
Bob and his wife were wonderful hosts. They even picked a fresh orange for us from their tree and gave us so many great tips for our stay on the Big Island. Without Bob’s prediction, we probably would have missed the incredible volcano eruption.
Thank you— you truly made our time on the Big Island something very special.

This is nice land to stay on, if you’re lucky and the sky is clear at night the stars are unREAL. Colin was very responsive and helpful. It’s a bring your own everything type of place, but there is a portapotty that works just fine for what you need it for (hasn’t been serviced in a while but it was perfectly functional and not gross. There’s a beach with a shower not too far away so that’s helpful! There are pigs roaming around the shadows at night but none bothered us or came near our camp while we were outside. We really liked our stay and would stay again and recommend to folks that can handle the minimal amenities like we can. Thanks Colin!!

Breathtaking views! The best bathroom and the kindest host. Something to note is that the site is right by the house if you don’t mind. Overall one of the most beautiful remote site! (Don’t drive down to the lower part of the property like me, volcanic rocks are no joke on an incline)

Beautiful peaceful spot. Loved the yummy treats from the fruit stand before settling in for the evening. The porta potty provided was the cleanest we’d used in our whole 10 day trip! Had a visit from the sheep in the morning before heading out. Thanks for the stay :)

Nice private camp area behind locked gate. Careful there is a lot of broken glass as you drive past the gate towards the campsite, I cleaned up a lot but the more I cleaned up the more I found. The code to the gate was wrong on the directions - luckily there was a worker at the fruit stand that gave me the right one. Tried to get a hold of the host regarding wifi but took over a day - called twice, WhatsApp, text - she finally responded to a text. Nice place to unwind and not have anyone bother you.

Bumpy road up for us in a sprinter van but slow and steady made it happen no problem. Colin was available and super helpful navigating us up and even telling us the best way to park our large van. Susan stopped by to quickly tell us about the critters and plants nearby which was fun to learn about.
The toilets were not available as they hadn't been serviced so ask ahead if that’s a need for your stay.
Overall a peaceful stay. Thanks Colin and Susan!

Bob and Nancy were so friendly and helpful! They have a beautiful property with fruit trees, lush grass, and cute cats roaming around. Plenty of space to pitch a tent and great bathroom facilities we had access to! One of the neighboring properties was a little noisy (music, dogs, etc..) but it wouldn’t stop me from staying again.
