I used to be out there twice a year when my daughter was going to school there. Her roomie was from South Kona. Her parents were basically unreformed hippies who lead yoga classes and nature trips to places like Bali and Peru. They built their own house out of long boards and screen doors, really wild place. It's on the water at the end of a long VERY rocky drive that the rental car company would definitely NOT have approved of (I forgot to tell them). We even got to visit up close with Madame Pele back when her territorial ambitions were somewhat more modest than they have been of late.
