Great location on Maui near Haiku, away from the crowds. The view of the gorge from the lanai and the plants around the cottage's yard make it feel like you're far removed from everything. Woke up to the sounds of the stream and birds in the trees every morning. After breakfast one morning, we almost spent a day just reading on the lanai. Ivy's banana bread and fresh fruit were excellent. The local beaches about 10-minutes away were uncrowded and great for watching surfers and checking out sea turtles (Ho'okipa and Baldwin). Twin Falls nearby is also a nice easy hike with multiple waterfalls and swimming holes (don't get scared off by the "advanced hikers only" sign at the upper path). Recommend eating locally at the Paia Fish Market for fresh fish, Nuka for great sushi, and Colleen's for a solid local brunch or dinner.
