Driveway not compatible with RV
2 days before the trip, we were warned the driveway was steep, but were ensured that we would be fine. The driveway was SO steep. We did not feel that we would get our RV back up the driveway when we went down, so I reached out to Michael to see if he had any ideas or other options. I never heard back from him, so I reached out to the group we rented our RV from to see if they had experience with this site. They agreed with our assessment, and mentioned they have had RVs actually unable to get out of this site after descending. We ended up parking in an industrial lot that night. Perhaps the place is wonderful, but it just wasn't compatible with our RV size and capabilities. ....FYI, I still never heard back from Michael.

Not recommended.
We booked this place last minute and were going to stay for 1 night, but never did. We didn't read reviews prior to our arrival, as we were in a pinch and just needed somewhere to crash. This was our mistake.
We arrived in the evening and was greeted by the host. He was enthusiastic and welcoming and offered many recommendations across the island. He also offered a bong rip immediately upon our arrival and was drinking beers with his friend. They are musicians and started to have band practice as we walked around the property.
There were only 1-2 parking areas for our camper van after we descended a rather steep driveway. The site was in disarray with trash and debris throughout the property. There were three dogs, which were nice to us, but we were warned that they can be protective and aggressive at times. The bathroom is in a tool shed, with little to no light. We did not look at the shower, but given the location and the disarray of everything else, we knew this was an unlikely option.
Overall, the vibes of this place did not translate to safety or privacy. The host was friendly, but almost too friendly, if that's possible. He seemed like he wanted party-friends, which wasn't what we were looking for. There were no real personal boundaries either. We were in our camper van deciding where we were going to get dinner when he approached our RV several times to chat. We are all for making friends on our adventures, but something seemed off with this.

Keep your eye on the dogs
Campsite was fine, kitchen was in a bit of a state, and one of the dogs scared the hell out of me. If you have little ones or a bad history with dogs I would avoid this place. The host was quite nice but overshadowed by a dog that was not well suited to be around new visitors at night. Be careful with this one.

Friendly hosts but a little grimy!
The hosts were super friendly and welcoming but the property is super grimy. Totally understand that it's a working farm but the kitchen was covered in a thin layer of food and oils, the bathroom was part of a tool shed and was also quite dirty. We did not end up using the shower as we typically left early in the morning and the hosts were asleep. The public campsites we've stayed in for this trip we're much cleaner and 1/4 of the price. Friendly hosts and cute dogs but just know the amenities aren't amazing going into it!

Overall underwhelming. In my opinion the location is great relative to Kona airport, but the price was excessive, and the house has lots of trash on the porch and in the yard making use of the shower and toilet significantly less inviting.
