Had a really great time at this spot. Betsy is extremely kind and welcomed us with a hug. Rented a car in Honolulu and drove up here. Town is a 2 minute drive or 20 min walk away. Nice location for getting to many of the hikes a little farther east. Also basically right in the middle of all the classic north shore surf spots. With regard to the lodging, very comfortable. Had new bathroom just updated. Full kitchen w dishwasher. Beach access less then 50 yards from house. Ocean view from the porch. Highly recommend this place.
