Carrie's place is the perfect spot to explore Hilo as well as the rest of the Big Island! The location can't be beat as it's a quick drive up the road from Hilo, so you get the peace and quiet of being out of town, but can get into Hilo very quickly for fun, food, and anything you need. Carrie and Hugh were very kind and welcoming and their place was spotless. Check-in was very simple and it was great getting to know Carrie, Hugh, and their place. We highly recommend this place and would stay here again on any future adventures to Hilo!
