The property is as beautiful as it appears in the pictures and Bob and Kady were friendly, helpful hosts. This is a quiet setting on the paradise side of the island in a historically agricultural area about 20-30 minutes from Hilo. Lily, the dog, welcomed us home each day and the fresh eggs and citrus grown on the property and shared by Bob and Kady are a plus. It's a convenient location for launching your trips on the east side of the island but we also just spent time hanging out on the 6 acres or walking the area in the morning and seeing the neighbors' goats, chickens and geese. We really enjoyed staying here.
