In this sanctuary from the standard tourist fare you can see and relax in the alternative Big Island landscape. Lizzie’s place is off the beaten path yet close enough to Hilo (25 minutes) or Hawaiian Volcanoes National Park (15 minutes) that a drive to either is no big deal. Situated in an old and lavishly overgrown volcanic flow, the setting is on large acreage punctuated frequently by old growth Ohia trees, the legendary personification of a great Hawaiian love story. Fern Forest accommodations are clean, well appointed and very relaxing to spend time in. Lizzie makes sure you have all privacy you need or the friendly conversation and advice you require. We loved our stay with her and you will too!
