Wow! This really was a gem of a home. It’s cozy and inviting with a huge yard surrounded by a lush, tropical forest. My husband especially enjoyed the cat, Mouser, and looked for her every night for a visit. Hap and Mely couldn’t be any nicer or more accommodating. Hap not only provided guide books but also let us know of all of the local hiking trails. In fact, one of the closest hiking trails was right down the street and attracts many people from neighboring towns because of its majestic beauty. Hap even brought us fresh citrus from his orchard. We did not want to leave and want to come back as soon as possible. The towns of Kapa’au and Hawi are awesome, smaller artist communities with plenty of coffee shops, cafes, shops with locally made items, restaurants and live music. The home is accessible to so many adventures. Absolutely five stars!
