Parker Ranch

Once the nation's largest privately owned ranch, peaking at 250,000 acres, the Parker Ranch occupies a vital space in Waimea's history and development. Today the ranch is run by a charitable trust, and visitors can poke around two historic homes (one a small 'saltbox', the other a Hawaiian spin on a Victorian manor) for free on a self-guided tour.
