If you are looking to explore the beautiful north end of the Big Island, this is the place to stay. It was wonderful to wake up each morning to that spectacular view, eat breakfast on the deck and we had clear nights when star gazing was amazing. The cottage is spacious, nicely appointed and feels like coming home. We loved listening to the birds, exploring the orchards and the privacy. Great spot for nearby hikes and many sites and black sand beaches to explore. Dan was a great host and we had everything we needed. We would stay here again for sure.
