This rustic wooden mountain cabin ("Much more than a cabin!" - Julia) is situated next to a forest, in a secluded spot away from the main house, on a 3.5 acre farm. At an elevation of 2,000 feet, it avoids the summer heat at sea level ("Cool and peaceful.." - Teri), yet is close to Kealakekua Bay (5 miles), kayaking, horse-riding, the Captain Cook Monument, Place of Refuge, and wonderful snorkeling. Ten minutes south is a small shopping center, with supermarket, video store, etc. Three miles north is Kainaliu Town, with theater/cinema, pharmacy,Blue Ginger Gallery, clothing stores and other quaint places. Two of the finest restaurants in West Hawaii (Mi’s Italian Bistro, and Keei Café) are less than 15 minutes away. Other coffee shops and restaurants are close by. From the cabin, a short walk across the property and along private paths through coffee fields leads you down a road that takes you through natural Hawaiian flora.

The 760 square feet cabin consists if a living-room, sleeping loft, bathroom, and well-equipped Hawaiian-style lanai kitchen with screens that look into the forest ("The forest if full of birdsong" - Claudia & Chan). A redwood deck is situated under the kukui and macadamia nut trees, and has a charcoal barbecue ("An evening barbeque and wine on the deck - perfect" - Barbara & John).

The farm has our three beloved and gentle dogs, two cats, sheep, chickens, two guinea fowl and Truman, our pig. These are kept in an area at the upper south end of the farm, and the cabin is at the lower north end, some distance from the animals. From the cabin and its deck many the sounds of the forest can be heard.

Guests will find fresh farm eggs, homemade bread, a fruit basket, Kona coffee, and other goodies to get them started.

Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Heide and Jeffrey Cumes have lived in Hawaii since 1988, and came to the Big Island in 1990. "We bought our home in Captain Cook in 1993 because it is close to our work and we loved the privacy, the temperate climate at 2,000 feet, and the rustic feel of the place. We have always loved animals and this was the perfect place to have chickens and a few sheep. Truman, our pig, is the newest addition. We have two adult daughters on the mainland, and two grandchildren. Our adopted teenager lives with us at home. We built the cabin in 2007, mostly for visiting family and friends, but since everyone seemed to enjoy it so much we decided to also use it as a vacation rental.
