We stayed at the Sugar Shack 3 for 6 nights. This is great location for exploring the west coast of the Big Island. The "Shack'" is a comfortable. cozy place to stay. It is in a rustic setting, away from the mass- produced resort atmosphere you run into in other locales on the coast. There are several very friendly cats who wiil be there to greet you when you arrive. The Christensens were great hosts. They pay attention to the details and make sure you are setled in have everything you need. An added bonus for us was the package ot their own Kona coffe left in the refrigerator as a gift. We took a look at Sugar Shack 2, it also looked like a nice place to stay. .
