We got so lucky being able to book this cabin. Staying in the crater feels like being on another planet. The stars at night are nothing like I've seen anywhere else. The cabins are rustic, but in great condition. This is such an amazing place and we are so grateful to the staff for maintaining the trails and cabins.

I suggest you call the rangers the day before. On our last trip, we arrived at the top and they informed us there was no propane at any of the cabinsso, no cooking and no water purification. We had to drive back to Kahului to buy a stove, canisters, and water tablets. If we had known in advance we would have brought the gear. :/

It was a lovely experience. The folks who were supposed to join me were not able to, so I went alone, and THOROUGHLY enjoyed the quiet. Actually, I wasn't alone. I had 3 Nene geese for company, and they were hilarious! I have visited the cabins before, so knew the compressed logs were impossible to chop, and knew the place would be far from sterile, but I doubled up the sleeping pads and cozied into a bunk, looking out the windows to the most incredible starry sky ~ Holua is a special place. Magical, actually.

Haleakala crater is even better enjoyed when you can spend the night. The stars, the sounds, or lack of sound even. Its a beautiful place. The cabins make staying overnight a breeze, especially when bringing the whole family.

Hiking through Haleakal National Park is akin to a spiritual experience. The crater is an amazing place. Staying at Holua cabin for two night was great. Im in my mid sixties and my husband in his mid seventies and being able to break the long hike up into two legs and have a rest day in the middle was a game changer. Sunrise from inside the crater is out of this world.

Beautiful hike to a gorgeous cabin. Typical trail cabin, rustic but provides shelter and warmth. The cushions on the bunks were an added bonus.

We love the hike in and out. The stars we amazing. The flys in the cabin were prevalent this trip! But that is okay. BRING YOUR OWN DISH RAGS. Just a helpful hint. Those rags up there are disgusting.

It was good. The propane and wood logs were stocked. It was great weather so that added to the experience. They resident Nene kind of like people too much and defecate all over the picnic area. Other campers probably feed them which is too bad, otherwise they are pretty cool. Peaceful beautiful area. Magnificent at night watching the full moon and listening to the resident Hawaiian petrels fly above.

Phenomenal, otherworldly setting. The bunk pads were suitably comfortable, and there were plenty of utensils and and cooking gas for meal prep. We went to sleep to the sound of ua'u (Hawaiian petrels) serenading us and woke up to a flock of nene (Hawaiian geese) outside the cabin. The best experience from my whole trip to Maui.

What a great spot. It's a shame that as a small time creator, I'm not allowed to post videos without a costly permit. Hopefully this changes soon with the explore act.

Great job to the Rangers for keeping the cabin stocked and maintained. Had a great time.

Notice to the park superintendent-Holua Cabin needs work.Ive been going for 45 years, Ive never seen it so dirty and in such disrepair.Shame! It was shocking to see it.Its neither expensive or time consuming to bring it back as its been for decades. Two people, a few days, some paint and cleaning supplies, and a few carpentry supplies for the kitchen cabinets, is all thats needed.

The park was closed due to post fire clean-up. Unable to use reservation, the funds were returned. Would have been nice to have been offered a future reservation date.

we forgot to lock the door before going to bed. a person entered the cabin around 11:30pm when we were all asleep. they walked around, shined their headlamp in our faces and then left without saying a single word. we followed them outside to confront them but they ran into the crater and then shut off their headlamp, obscuring their location. very unsettling experience. stay safe out there.

The park was great! The cabin was good too. It was super wet when our group went and we stayed warm and dry in the Holua cabin. Previous campers left extra soap and fuel. There is a lot of backup fuel for Coleman (propane) type stoves and smaller ones like a Jetboil (isobutane mix). There were dishes, utensils, pots, etc. It's well stocked.

Hiking Haleakal National Park is a special experience and highly recommended. If you go, please take the time to appreciate the rules. This is culturally sacred place and a very fragile ecosystem.

Well, I was just checking to see if there were ANY openings in the crater, and as luck would have it, there was one. So we built a trip around that. The nature of the system makes it VERY difficult to find success, but I can't think of any other way to structure it. Friends were stunned at my chance success.

I love the place and we had an overall great time but there were mice running about eating through our food.

Stayed two nights - Great facility with rustic, historic charm. There was some leftover gear and supplies from past hikers but overall cabin was clean, well maintained, and similar to other CCC-era cabins we've stayed in at other National Parks. While there are still issues with the water tap inside the cabin, water was readily available from the tank immediately behind it. The picnic table out front was popular with day hikers stopping for a break. In addition to the provided propane burner, there were over a dozen mostly-full isobutane canisters left behind in one of the cabinets for use with individual camp stoves (aka jetboils, pocket rockets, etc). We ran the wood stove one night but overall found it comfortable inside the cabin with 15-30 degree bags even without the fire.
If you go outside at night you can hear eerie cries of the endangered 'ua'a or hawaiian petrel on the cliffs above, however they were not loud enough to interfere with sleeping inside the cabin. During the day several nēnē would regularly hang out on the front lawn.
We had intermittent clouds and fog come up through the Ko'olau Gap to the cabin, in general hiking the mile or so down to the Silversword Trail Loop would get us out of the clouds to enjoy the sunsets and stars.

Had so much fun, trails were great, not much trash along the way, holua cabin was in great shape. The water catchment was broken though.
