This studio cottage sits on 5 acres of orchard, gulch and gardens with the Kohala coast as a backdrop. The owners farm the back 20 acres with cattle, sheep, goats and chickens. We are located midway between the towns of Hawi and Kapa'au--both known for their quaint shops and restaurants. Although only a 5-minute drive to town, the cottage is set back from the road and is completely surrounded by tall bamboo and ironwood trees ensuring a tranquil and private environment. Guests may wander the grounds to pick seasonal fruits, herbs and veggies, visit with the animals or kick back in a comfy hammock to enjoy the tradewinds. Complimentary Direct TV and internet are available for your convenience. There is a kitchenette complete with microwave, 2 burner hot plate, coffee maker, toaster oven, blender and refrigerator. It is fully supplied with dishes and cookware should you choose to prepare your own meals. There is a dining table with views of the front lawn and orchard and a country grocery store just across the street. The comfortable queen sized bed sleeps two and the bath has both tub and shower. Scenic Pololu Valley and lookout is a 20 minute drive to the north and Hapuna Beach State Park and Kohala resorts are a 25 minute drive to the south. Other activities in the area include kohala zip line, Upolu airport sky diving, and horse back riding. Farmers market at the HUB open on saturdays.

Peggy is a wonderful host, the best we’ve ever had in 20 years of visiting Hawai’i. She regularly provided us with delicious farm produce, took us on tours, and gave useful tips about the surrounding area. The property description is accurate (it’s gorgeous) and the area had a laid back, old Hawai’i vibe.
The property is beautiful and private. The host was very pleasant and knowledgeable of the area. It was fun to get a tour of the farm. The ohana was comfortable and had everything needed. It was a treat to stay right between Hawi and Kapa’au.
This is a quiet and beautiful spot to stay in the northern area of the island. Peggy was warm, welcoming and full of information. We would love to stay there again.
First off, the location is handy in that you can easily get to many sites in the area and walk across the street to the best grocery in the area. The setting is idyllic and feels remote except for the nearby cars. You can sit in lounge chairs on the large expensive lawn. The lovely unit is perfectly set up with a nice kitchen and everything you need. Peggy and Ken are welcoming and generous with their fruit. I am interested in plants and Peggy gave me a tour of the farm which I found fascinating. All and all, this was perfect little home for me!
We loved our visit to the Big Island and staying at the Cozy Cottage. The setting was lovely, Peggy was an excellent host, and the location provided easy access to town. We highly recommend staying at the cozy cottage.
Down-shift from the hectic pace of Honolulu. My husband and I wanted a way to celebrate our anniversary with a restful yet memorable getaway. We couldnt be more happy with the Cozy Cottage in Kapa'au!
We enjoyed our stay so much!! The cottage is everything you need, want, and more! The property is beautiful and the views are breathtaking! Another added touch is the host Peggy. She is very welcoming and helpful! I would highly recommend this place can’t want to visit again!!
We had a very enjoyable stay. The studio and the property are peaceful, comfortable, and quiet, in a convenient location. Peggy is a friendly and helpful host.
We received a recommendation from our neighbor for the farm and we are so glad we booked our stay. Peggy was so very welcoming and informative; we so enjoyed the area and the fresh squeezed OJ. We will book a future visit!

We had a wonderful time at the farm. The studio was very clean and Peggy was a perfect host.
We enjoyed our stay at this property. It was well located for sightseeing on this part of the island and near to dining and shopping. The grounds were delightful and hidden from the main road. Peggy was gracious, accommodating and helpful. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.
The property is beautiful. The room is a studio but, very comfortable with nice extra touches. Hawi is small. Still, there were a few things within walking distance. Lots of beautiful unspoiled Hawaii very near by.
