Right to Reserve
the Cabins:
The use of the cabins is restricted to Hawaii Conference UCC ministers and
active lay members (and their families) or any church affiliated with the
conference. Priority for use of the cabins are:
-
Ministers and their families
-
Church groups
-
Active lay members and their families
Note: Regardless of advanced booking, there is a two-week preference for
any UCC minister who actively pastors a church on the island of Kauai. In
other words, a pastor can call up to two weeks prior to your reservation
and he/she will get first priority. This is a stipulation of the donor of
the original cabin.
Reservations:
Reservations are made only through the cabin coordinator, currently Helen
Hoeckmann-Percival at Waimea UCC (338-9962).
The cabins may be reserved for a maximum of one week.
Confirmation of the reservation will be given two weeks prior to the requested

the cabin user defaults on the reservation in part or in full.
Those with an unpaid balance from a previous rental will not be allowed make
further reservations.
Keys will not be released until full payment and the mandatory Indemnification
