Willie Nelson's Maui home is safe from the Hawaiian wildfires, which have displaced thousands of people since they started earlier this month.

Hawaii's Maui Island is the latest area to be struck by wildfires after a series of similar incidents across the globe previously took place. Experts said climate change plays a huge role in increasing the potential occurrence of such events.

While thousands of people lost their homes and loved ones, Nelson's property on the island has not been impacted by the wildfires as of press time.

Willie Nelson's Maui Home Safe From Hawaii Wildfires

The country singer's representative confirmed to Radar Online that his 6,038-square-foot property is okay amid the disastrous event.

Nelson's $4.3 million mansion, which he originally bought for $450,000 in 1983, has six bedrooms and six bathrooms and is seated on 0.84 acres of land home for years.

CBS News said at least 55 people died as of Thursday, with officials confirming that the number would go up as multiple fires on the island are still burning. Per Hawaii Gov. Josh Green, the ongoing natural disaster is likely the biggest one in the state's history.

Nelson celebrated his 90th birthday in the two-day, all-star concert at the Hollywood Bowl before holding more shows in different cities and states. He graced the stage of the Outlaw Music Festival on Saturday, where he performed some of his hit shows, including "Always on My Mind," "Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground," and "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Cowboys."

Mick Fleetwood's Restaurant Burned Down

While Nelson's mansion is untouched by the raging fires, Mick Freetwood's restaurant on the island was devastated by the natural disaster.

The musician confirmed the heartbreaking news on Twitter (now X), on Wednesday evening. The Fleetwood Mac co-founder said his Fleetwoods on Front St. was damaged in the wildfires. Still, their main priority is the safety of everyone who I part of the business.

The restaurant also opened up about the saddening development in a separate post.

"As most of you know Maui has been dealing with extreme fires created by the residual winds of Hurricane Dora," it wrote. Lahaina Town has taken the brunt of it. ... Mahalo for your continued thoughts and prayers for our community and our first responders."
