Abstract
Ainahou Ranch house is a one- and two-story bungalow built in the Craftsman style with natural redwood horizontal siding and gabled metal roofing. It sits among ohia trees in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, blending into the forest. The Ainahou Ranch house is significant for its association with Herbert C. Shipman, a Hilo businessman, Big Island rancher, philanthropist and conservationist. The house is also a fine, artistic example of the Craftsman/Bungalow style of architecture in Hawaii.
