Great place for those sealing adventure

While we spent most of our visit out and about hiking, sightseeing, and swimming, this cabin was a great place to have a few meals and lie our heads between exploring the big island. The bed was super comfortable and the bedroom and patio were really nice. The kitchen was well stocked for those looking to cook. However, there were a few cleanliness issues: the previous guests did not throughly clean the dishes, which attracted bugs, there was mold in the fridge, and there was a slight musty smell. You also need to bring nearly everything you might need, including toiletries (shampoo and a used bar of soap were the only things provided), beach towels, and spices (there was salt and pepper but it was damp). If you’re looking for a luxurious place to spend a lot of time, this cabin may not be for you, but we enjoyed it.

Beautiful and cozy home away from home

My boyfriend and I stayed at this lovely place for 10 days. We really enjoyed the location and the nature around. It was a very peaceful place. We came for Kona Ironman competition, but decided to stay in Hilo part for the training before the race. And it was a great choice. The house was perfect for two of us. It had everything we needed. It had cookware and dishes, so we cooked our own breakfast, lunch and dinner. The house was clean and well maintained. The bed was very comfortable. The little balcony turned out to be my favorite spot for meditation and yoga. I could feel that Lori and Vern put a lot of love into this place. I highly recommend this place. We really enjoyed this property. I wold stay there again gladly.

Disappointing Experience

The pretty, jungle setting was lovely and the bed was comfortable. The road into the property was full of potholes, the canvas car canopy was loaded with black mold (that was near the open bathroom window,) the bathroom floor had large cracks in it (we could see the dirt beneath the cottage,) the shower ran hot/cold, the kitchen chairs were hard. We paid for 3 weeks, but only stayed 4 nights. When we asked for more toilet paper, we were given only one roll. The bathtub plug did not work on the first night, but the owner did pull out the broken plug and he gave us a flat plug that worked OK. Although the setting was pretty, the cottage was a disappointment. We would not recommend staying here.

Nice place but very isolated

This is a small one-bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom place that is a little difficult to find. It's about 45 minutes from downtown Hilo and is in Pahoa but a good 6 miles from the nearest store or restaurant. Hard to find when it's dark but the facilities were adequate.
