Solitude
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.

Magical
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 .

Inspiring views in every direction.
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.

A refreshing time with nature!
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✨

AMAZING
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!!!

Am I in Heaven?
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.
