Wild and organic. That is the best way to describe our gardens. Our hanai mom started caring for this land over forty years ago. Her passion for flowers, fruits and organic, simple living can still be seen even in our attempts to gain some control. The land is in my sisters and my care now and we hope to honor her, keeping everything organic. Fighting back the invasive plants and continuing to plant more flowers, fruits and vegetables. We want to bring back some animals and create an environment that would bring her joy. We are so blessed to see René in all the beauty she gifted us with. Our tropical rainforest, with forty years of love, beautiful organic gardens, tangerines, avocados, kukui, rhododendron, anthurium, hibiscus, and so much more to wander and enjoy. Rene would tell us how the railroad ended at the grove. We have found evidence. When the sky is clear at night you can see the milky way. This is my favorite place. I hope you enjoy. There are things to be aware of, it's camping outdoors. There are bugs. Mosquitos, centipedes, fire ants. And there are pigs. Diatomaceous earth is great to put down before making camp. It's natural and detours bugs of all kinds. With the pigs, be louder and bigger than them and don't get between babies and parents.If you enjoy primitive camping, beautiful flowers, don't mind wild life or a family plot doesn't freak you out, our gardens are for you! It's a 3min walk through the tangerine grove to the camp site. A slice of tropical rainforest. Forty years of love has gone into these beautiful organic gardens. Tangerines, avocados, kukui, rhododendron, anthurium, hibiscus, and so much more to wander and enjoy. My auntie would tell us how the railroad ended at the grove. We have found evidence. When the sky is clear at night you are sitting in the milky way. This is my favorite place.

Described perfectly and pics show accurately. Directions good. Texted Jeff about location he was prompt and met us at the gate. Very quiet place to park our rig, a Jeep truck with a rooftop tent. We werent on the ground, so not sure about the fire ants if an as we werw not on the ground. We had bug spray so mosquitos stayed away.
