The property and view exceeded expectations. The grounds were beautifully landscaped and the nightly sunsets were amazing. The lodge had everything we needed to cook our own meals and have quiet nights in. My fiancée enjoyed the claw foot bathtub. The place even came with a log and fire supplies to have a cozy fire in the fireplace. We loved feeding the hosts beautiful animals each morning and Chris was very kind and informative with great tips and heretical pearls about the Kohala area. Would recommend to any friend and we will certainly be back in the future!

This place was an amazing find! Set up in the ranch lands near Hawi, it is a side of Hawaii we didn't know existed. The house itself is decorated as a ranch house. The cowboy decor is gorgeous and a lot of fun. There is a huge fireplace, all laid and ready to light, a claw-foot tub and a loft with amazing views. Our favorite spot was on the huge veranda where we could sit and relax and look out at the horses and goats and then on past the fields, all the way to the ocean. On clear days, we could see Maui. The kitchen is well supplied and Chris has provided everything you could need. I highly recommend completing your stay with a horseback ride with Paniolo Adventures on one of the local ranches.
We can't wait to come back :)

We stayed at this property for a few days and it was amazing! It makes you feel like you are in one of those pastoral alpine locations but you'll find it in the middle of Pacific with the incredible ocean view! The house is also on the best scenic drive in Big Island. Will come back to stay definitely!

This was a wonderful place to spend our final three days on the Big Island. Loved having some space for the kids to run around! The location is absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. It’s away from all of the busy resort areas but close enough that you can still do a day at the beach without too long of a drive. The view from the large porch is stunning — perfect sunset-viewing location and great for star gazing. The lodge is clearly well cared for by the owners and we enjoyed the uniqueness of the decor. Chris was also very helpful and generous in sending us an item that my son left behind. Highly recommended!

This beautiful lodge is undoubtedly one of the best places to stay. It is spotless and has absolutely everything you need to make meals. It is rustic, yet modern, the best of both worlds. I'd stay here for morning coffee and the sunsets from the front porch alone.

Beautiful home and surroundings. Absolutely peaceful. No traffic, leaf blowers, loud neighbors, barking dogs. Sitting on the porch watching the sunset and the owners cool animals. Great place to relax and get some rest. Plenty to do close by.
One of the best vrbo’s we have stayed in. Even comes with a decent guitar and a very nice bass ukulele. Thanks to the owners for making this availability.

This property was everything and more. I wasn't sure if we were in Montana or Hawaii ! The views from the deck were amazing. The animals and owner on the property a real bonus. We barbecued in the evening and sat on the porch relaxing for many hours. Everything was fantastic. We will be back. Thank you so much for an amazing stay .

Seven days at a wonderful place overlooking the Pacific, with Maui in the distance. We relaxed on the porch, took in many of the “must sees” in the North Kohala area. So much to see and Chris’ place is a great center point.
We’d go back in an instant.

We enjoyed our stay at Kohala Lodge while there on a business trip. The grounds are beautiful and I adored feeding Pua the Shetland Pony & Nova the spotted horse as well as the goats! The rustic ambiance of the lodge combined with the dense trees & green surroundings had me begin to relax my city mind & feel close to nature. I felt a real positive energy vibration while there & I hope to get to visit again! Thank you Chris Wej for your kind welcome✨

This is the best VRBO we have ever stayed in. So quiet and secluded. Views were just breathtaking. The host, Chris, was out every day taking care of the huge grassy lot and everything was so well manicured. Hope to go back in the near future and take our grown kids.
Thank you Chris!!!

Kohala Lodge is a relaxing, peaceful, mind expanding, inspirational experience with expansive, wonderous views. Chris & Carol are the most gracious, interesting, philosophical hosts I have ever had the privilege to interact with. The place is impeccable! I feel honored and humbled they allowed us to share their little slice of heaven. My husband and I enjoy places off the beaten path, grilling up our own food in the well appointed kitchen, and snuggling up to a cozy fire. Watching the goats and horses graze in the field, while birds dance across the sky, a rainbow appears, with Maui peeking out from the hazy clouds in the distance. Words cannot describe this amazing place! Bring a warm wind breaker, an open mind, and enjoy the countryside experience. Mahalo! Deepest appreciation.
