The Experience
Our large lifestyle property overlooks beautiful Lake Waihola. We are a very hard working couple, we are creating & developing a place of tranquility to enjoy after a long day. We have a mini farm, ducks, hens, dogs, cat which can be very entertaining! Jobs depend on the day and the weather - they can entail gardening, housecleaning, landscaping, cooking, dog walking etc. We are always happy to teach skills you may not have.

I had the most amazing time! Jesika and Evan are so welcoming, I felt at home the minute I arrived. Daily tasks are very manageable and explained well. The house and property is beautiful and I loved spending time with the dogs, chickens and ducks! Would highly recommend this experience🤩

Had an amazing experience!! Jesika and Evan were super welcoming. Jesika communicated the work that had to be done very well and allowed for flexibility and input on it. A beautiful property made even better by Storm, Bella and Nixie. Highly recommend!

We had a beautiful and peaceful experience with Jesika and Evan, who welcomed us not just as volunteers but as part of their home and daily life. Their place is a little paradise, surrounded by nature, with ducks, hens, friendly dogs, and a sweet cat. Tasks were well explained, varied, and flexible — from gardening to cooking and house chores. We felt a true connection, sharing meals, stories, and laughter. Our room was warm and cozy, and the relaxed, respectful atmosphere made it easy to feel at home. We leave with deep gratitude and unforgettable memories!

Jesika and Evan truly made me feel right at home from the second I arrived! Their home was so cozy, the room I stayed in was great and the views from their property were magnificent. I truly felt like a member of the family, I'd sit down to meals with them, watch movies, etc. The work included things like gardening, and various other tasks around the home. Totally manageable work load! Overall I had an excellent time with them. I truly feel as though I made lifelong friends with them! I can't recommend a stay enough! Thanks for hosting me!
