Great little cottage in the middle of Hilo. The waterfall in the backyard totally made the trip! Too bad it rained the entire time we were there, so we weren't really able to go and jump in, but still a gorgeous backdrop for our morning coffee. A few words of caution to those who aren't really used to staying "off the grid". There are a lot of gnats and bugs and critters that will just find their way to you or your food to say hello, so keep the screen door shut. It also gets pretty dark out there, especially in the middle of rainy season, so it's best to do your grocery shopping and/or dinners out before 6pm so you can make that drive back up to the cottage. It's paved, but some turns are narrow and a few spots turned into a one lane road. It's a great little getaway for anyone who loves the calming effects of the water and peace and quiet. Would definitely recommend and will be back again!
