Gilbert Kahele Recreation Area Bunkhouse Group Application

Groups of seven (7) or more individuals who belong to the same organization can apply for a permit that allows the overnight use of a bunkhouse. Once the group status has been verified, applicants can proceed with a bunkhouse reservation.

For cabin use, a group permit is not required. Go to Hawaiʻi County Camping to make your reservation.

The group permit is free of charge. The reservation fees are as follows:

  • $240.00 per night (Non-residents: $480.00 per night)
  • $250.00 rental deposit fee (Refunds will be mailed via fiscal check within 60 days provided that the permittee complies with all lodging permit conditions and rules)

Additional processing fees apply.
