Staying at this property was a blessing. In addition to the house with all the facilities, the land with the animals, pets are part of the charm of this place. Also the kindness of Eva our host and the Sacred Garden where we had the opportunity to meditate and walk the labyrinth under her guidance was a plus. We would repeat the experience without a doubt.

We had a very nice stay in the log house. It was big enough for our extended family and it was nice to be in the green forest area of Maui. Eve (the owner) gave us a tour of the property and we learned a lot about the plants in the area. The kitchen was a good size and well stocked. Also the laundry room came in handy. In the evenings, it was peaceful to hear the rain and breeze through the trees. We enjoyed our stay, thank you!

This property was perfect for our extended family of 10. We had 3 groups (two families of 4 plus a set of grandparents), and each group had their own spacious floor. The house is stocked with plenty of clean linens, lots of beach toys, chairs, and towels and has a washer and dryer in the bottom floor. The property is lush with beautiful plants and unique physical features such as a creek bed and a cliff wall that make you feel like you've found a hidden gem. The kids in our group spent all their downtime playing out in the yard and found plenty to do while the grownups relaxed on the lanai. This location is the perfect temperature allowing you to have the windows open all day and night. It is a short ~10 minute drive to conveniences such as grocery, gas, etc. On Saturdays there is a wonderful market (called the Upcountry Farmer's Market) just 10-15 minutes away. Eve is a fantastic host and is very responsive and helpful. She lives nearby and is able to assist with any of your needs or questions. While we were there, a tropical storm was headed our way and she let us know which windows to close and told us about the battery powered lanterns that were stored downstairs. This home was above and beyond any of our expectations, and we would 100% recommend it to anyone!

We had 9 people including my wife, my teenage to adult kids, son’s girlfriend, and my parents. This place couldn’t have been more perfect for our group. Plenty of beds (most important), decent number of bathrooms (second most important), real nice kitchen and family room, and tons of beautiful scenery. * Fair Warning* There are a number of roosters around the property and they let you know about it every morning. But that was a small price to pay for this beautiful cabin in the Hawaiian woods.
Eve was absolutely awesome and very attentive and hospitable in every way. She gave a tour of the beautiful gardens and grounds and was quick to respond to every question/concern. This has to be the best VRBO-type experience I’ve ever had. Absolutely plan to come back - I hope word doesn’t get too much.

I typically never leave reviews, but after leaving this VRBO I knew I had to. The house was good, and the inside does look like the pictures. However, there were issues with the house. The downstairs shower did not drain. Any water used would just sit in the tub. The upstairs shower was also troublesome. Eve told us that this shower might give us problems, but even when following these instructions, water would still drip from the shower into the floor of the master bedroom.
Eve was friendly, but we didn’t realize how close her house is to this VRBO. We also didn’t anticipate how much we would see her during our stay. Her house is very very close to this rental, which based on the pictures we just didn’t expect. There was maybe 20 yards between the two homes. There was also a time when Eve came into the house when none of us were home to turn off a light that she didn’t think was working. We would have appreciated a heads up, as hearing about this from Eve later that night felt violating. and we only heard about this from Eve because our front door code was changed mid-stay… Also, because Eve’s home is on the same property, there was one night when all of us were frightened to see 2 people (which we later realized were Eve and her husband) walking around our house with flashlights. They were just walking the property, but nothing prepares you to see 2 people walking with flashlights by your bedroom window at 1 in the morning. Overall, I wouldn’t stay here again.

My family (10 of us) stayed at this lovely spot in Makawao. Eve, this host, runs a very beautiful and unique property. She also owns The Sacred Garden next door. It was our first time staying upcountry and I have to say, I loved it. The house was spacious and everyone had plenty of room. Internet worked well. Kitchen is nicely stocked.
If you have multiple people and are looking to try an upcountry stay, I highly recommend Eve’s house.
