About Chris Wej
We fell in love with this magical property on top of the hill and decided to build a unique dream house for our retirement. We are too young to retire so decided to share it with you and your family as a vacation rental.
Chris Wej purchased this house in 1997
Why Chris Wej chose Hawi
North Kohala is known as God's country. It is the richest part of the island in terms of natural beauty.
What makes this house unique
There are spectacular coastal views and You can see the chain of Hawaiian Island from the Lodge. There are moonbows on certain nights. Star gazing is perfect from this property.

Best place in Hawaii
This is definitely one of the best places in Hawaii. If you enjoy quiet serene landscape and beautiful sunsets, you will enjoy this experience. The owners of the property are some of the most down to earth and truly pleasant people you could ever hope to meet. They were more than accommodating, and they made the experience all that more enjoyable. We will definitely be coming back I the future for another dose of country quiet and peace.

Insanely beautiful and well cared for property - a very special place
This property is just crazy beautiful and well maintained. The detail that went in to creating this special place is amazing. We were very impressed with the functionality of the paniolo/lodge type features of the house and how they made the home so comfortable and functional. The view is my favorite of all places in Hawaii. I have always preferred the windswept fields and rough swift shores of this coast and the sunsets here are incredible. This is the type of place I work at getting back to stay again!
Perfect ending to our family vacation
We stayed at the Lodge for the last 3 days of our 2 week family vacation. It was our favorite. The house and landscape is exquisitely cared for and has many interesting details to explore. The kids enjoyed feeding the horses and goats, and spent hours swinging on the tree out front. We explored the great food in Hawi, great hiking in Polulu Valley, and great horseback riding up on the ridge. Thanks Chris for a wonderful couple of days.
I LIVE IN HAWAII AND THIS IS WHERE I COME FOR VACATION!!!
I normally stay at Kilauea Military Camp (KMC) on the National Park when I visit the Big Island. Been there about ten times. Since the volcanic activities, I had to change my lodging. This is how I discovered the Kohala Lodge. This is the perfect vacation spot for the FAMILY. The description in VRBO is exact. Before I reserved the Kohala Lodge, I went through the reviews. ALL were 5 stars. Even one review with two negative remarks was still had 5 stars. The first negative comment was the phone reception was not great. I thought that was a plus personally because I made plans not to turn my phone on. However, that was fixed. WIFI has been added since that comment....so problem solved. The second negative comment was that there is no shopping near. That is not exactly true. If you want to buy tourist items made in China then you may need to drive an hour away to Kona, If you want local shopping, the market is a couple of miles down the road. Support the local economy in my opinion. If you are worried about the recent volcanic activity, this place is the safest spot on island. The lodge is on the northern part of the island while the volcanic action is in the southwest part of the island. To sum up my stay; PROS - Great view of Maui, perfect weather, very relaxing, Family oriented, horses and sheep, beautiful places to see near by, fireplace with the fire burning on the cool night, snorkel and beach items(cooler, towels, boogie boards) for use. Cons - My stay was only 6 days. I wished I could have stayed longer. I honestly can not think of any cons. Will I come again - YES!
The property is gorgeous and has a unique view of Maui and the ocean.
We very much enjoyed the house and a chance to sample the many diverse pleasures of the Big Island. We particularly liked spending time on the porch and watching the sunsets, with the horses and goats playing in the fields just below us. The town of Hawi is a special place with numerous good restaurants and interesting shops. Not too far away were good beaches and places to swim. Also a unique drive was the trip over the Kohala Mountain Road, with the frequent rainbows that came with the brief showers. The hosts were very accommodating and responsive. We look forward to going back sometime soon.
A lovely bit of peace
I brought my son, daughter-in-law and toddler here for a respite from a very stressful period. This lodge was just what we needed. It was clean, comfortable and beautiful, in fact, the beauty of the house and its surroundings stands out as unique in the area. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and listening to the birds and watching cardinals and egrets flit about. The setting was perfect for relaxing. It's also an easy place to stay with small children since there's so much for them to do and see.
The kitchen has everything we needed for cooking meals and there were also face-masks and flippers for snorkeling.
