Description

Built on the edge of a bluff adjacent to a double 25-ft. waterfall on the Wailuku River, the famed retreat Falls at Reeds Island is a complex mix of tropical magic, zen energy, solitude, and modernism. Surrounded by state and conservation land, at the edge of the property another 85-ft. waterfall cascades into the 700-ft. of river frontage. The home is a work of art with the closeup views of the falls and natural rainforest prevailing from every room. The minimalist interiors of 2,696 sq.ft. complement...Built on the edge of a bluff adjacent to a double 25-ft. waterfall on the Wailuku River, the famed retreat Falls at Reeds Island is a complex mix of tropical magic, zen energy, solitude, and modernism.

Built of Port Orford, OR cedar and supported by locally sourced ‘Ohia post, a long breezeway entry screened from floor to ceiling connects the homes 3 living pavilions. The late San Francisco architect David Morton created this vertical structure to meet the physical challenges of the 2.249 ac. long, narrow parcel bordered by 2 gulches, the rain forest and the river with the result being a home of distinction hailed in the NY Times as well as multiple award-winning travelsites with 5-star ratings for this successful vacation rental. Known as Koloiki, Reed’s Island is a 26-ac. enclave shaped by the Wailuku River, the largest in the state. Once home to Hawaiian royalty, Koloiki was sold by King Kamehameha IV to William Reed in 1861. Accessible by a small bridge, Reed’s Island is situated just 1 mile from historic Hilo but feels like a time capsule of Old Hawaii. In a bygone era, this neighborhood was where the local affluent families built their homes. Hilo is the last place of the 4 larger islands still free of the pressure of rapid expansion and famous for its rainfall and lush jungle vegetation. The guest population is a resourceful and adventurous breed looking for a true retreat, an escape to solitude and natural beauty set in a town of socio and ethnic diversity with a strong scientific and cultural community. This estate located at the very end of the island's only road, is the most prestigious and privileged setting on the island.
