North Kohala, Hawi, Hale Ho'Okipa. Available for Thanksgiving
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Kapaau
We were married almost 20 years ago in a remote part of Maui and since then have been searching all the islands for a more permanent Hawaiian home. We decided to buy our present hale in Noth Kohala where our active lifesytle can still flourish. We bicycle,and hike right from our front door, and take our kayak to our special put-in spot. Gardening is a passion and what a delight it is to be able to actually watch things grow. We love being a part of a community and have found Kapa'au and Hawi filled with caring and involved people.
Owner's Map of Kapaau
Paul & I have lived in Squaw Valley, California for many years. We are active "seniors". Paul retired from the design/building business and I have been retired from teaching physical education. We have ten grandchildren ages range from newborn to 16 years. We love being outdoors and have an active lifestyle. The culture of Hawaii is very important to us, one of the reasons we chose to buy a home in "old Hawaii" where we can feel a part of the history that surrounds us.
