Hilo Camping
Bring your own tent or Campervan
Just get here before 5 pm, which is our last check-in time. Set up your tent or camper van and enjoy your stay.
Remember, Hilo is the wettest part of the island! You will want a rain fly.
We will provide you with a camp space, shower, and toilet facilities. Everything else needs to be provided by the camper. We do not lend tools to assist with setting up your tent, nor do we rent out beddings, linens, or cooking supplies. You may purchase a clean towel for $5.00. We also do not provide free storage for your luggage and personal effects. Treat this as any other camping spot on the island and be conscious of your belongings. Our WiFi is free to use for all of our guests, including campers.
Tents must be moved after 3 nights to preserve the lawn; larger tents after 2 nights. 7 nights maximum stay limit. Management’s approval is needed for any extension. We are now on Hipcamp! Check us out on Hipcamp here.
