We loved Shannon's tree cottage! It had everything we needed and was a great place to stay and relax and feel like you are truly in nature. The surrounding area around the house has beautiful flowers and plants. The bottom level has a Lanai for relaxing and enjoying the sounds of the outdoors. The cottage itself has a beautiful deck and windows all around. The location was great if you are looking to visit Volcano national park or Hilo and a black sand beach. It's about 2 hours or so from Kona. Shannon was great and attentive. she checked in right away to make sure we got in okay and provided helpful tips and locations on nearby places to go. Overall this was one of the best Airbnb's we ever stayed at! We would definitely go back again.
