This wonderful, clean, comfortable cabin in a gorgeous, lush and verdant tropical forest is an exceptional setting. It is remote, serene and beautiful, and the vegetation is amazing. Connie's description of the property is spot on -- everything was as she described. The kitchen is well equipped (we cooked our dinners and breakfasts on the dual propane burners) and there likely are spices, condiments and cooking oil already there so I recommend checking out the pantry items before you shop. (We shopped before arriving and added to the stash that was already there.) The cabin is spotless and comfortably furnished. We slept like babies, enjoying the sound of the rain showers on the roof. (Be advised that the roosters that run wild in the area will alert you when dawn is approaching.) The cellular coverage at the cabin was spotty for us (we are ATT clients -- apparently Verizon has strong coverage there.) This was not an issue as we easily obtained coverage on our way into town.
We stayed at Connie's place while visiting a family member at the Pacific Quest Wilderness Program. While I would recommend it to anyone visiting the southern Big Island, it was particularly valuable to us as a place to retreat from the intensity of the PQ family program.
I highly recommend this property, and Connie as a host. I have already booked my next stay there.

PS: the rental cost of Connie's place is truly a good value!
