The Kohala Ditch, often called the “Lifeblood of Kohala” from the sugar cane days is on this property and the wood flume lends a distinctive, old, historic charm. While not running currently, the ditch meanders through the corner of the acreage amidst the forested gulch lush with a variety of trees.

The tropical gardens adorning this property, designed and installed by two of Hawai’i’s premiere horticulturists, are just waiting for your personal touch. There is open space to include home kitchen raised bed gardens (bamboo shoots can already be harvested), livestock (mini-barn in place) and additional tropical ornamentals.
