This was a great place to stay, with spacious living and sleeping areas. It's conveniently located, just 30 minutes from Hilo and so close to the National Park. It's located at the end of the street, which means no one will be driving past the place, and at night you can hear the surf through the other night sounds of the frogs and other critters out there. The kitchen was completely stocked, with some condiments and paper plates and other items that make life so much easier when travelling. Given those special things we were even willing to leave an extra tip to help replenish the supplies. There were also some books and maps that made our visit so much more easy and comfortable. Our host, Doug, was very responsive to us when we texted him as well. There really isn't anything negative that we could say about our stay here! We really loved staying here. If you're thinking about staying on this side of the island, don't hesitate to make your reservation.
