We really enjoyed our stay here. The owners were quick to respond to our e-mails and were very helpful by providing additional pictures of the cottage. The cottage was well maintained and looked just like the pictures. We loved the lanai and the huge walk-in closet! The yummy oranges that were given to us made the best juice for our breakfast! It was the perfect home base for our visit with our soon to be deployed son! The added bonus of getting to see one of the Billabong surf competitions while we were there just made our trip that much more memorable! We will return! Thanks!!

Wonderful stay on the North Shore

The owners of this lovely unit helped make our first visit to the North Shore of O'ahu so pleasant. They were friendly, quick to respond via email, and welcoming when we arrived. They gave us helpful directions and suggestions for places to visit and eat in the area. Their rental space was private and well furnished, and what a beautiful view--such lush green! One of our favorite parts of this stay was the peaceful solitude of the mornings: When we went outside to the lanai each morning, all we could hear was birdsong (and the occasional chicken!). We just loved it. Mahalo for your hospitality!

Cozy Cottage

This a real value for two people. My wife and I really enjoyed the cottage. All we needed was on location; amenities were many. It is off the "beaten" track. It was VERY clean. Also a good location to explore the 'North Shore'. Laurel and I exchanged several Emails and she answered every question. Don't be put off that there is not an oven. There are hot plates to heat pans and an excellent gas grill to cook on and heat food. I used it every night. We will go back.

Beautiful cottage, very well appointed and comfortable. My boyfriend and I had no idea what a perfect spot this was going to be! Minutes from the Polo Club, historic Haleiwa and the old sugar factory. We cooked in (grilled out, rather) each evening and went in to town for coffee. The cottage is located at the end of a road, as far away as you could be from busy-ness with a view of the mountains and fields on the other side of the street. The lanai is wonderful, a great place to sit and have a drink and enjoy dinner while looking at the mountains. The cottage is clean, and spacious enough for two. Luxurious shower and closet. The cottage has its own wireless internet connection, making it easy for me to conduct business away from home. This is the perfect place if you prefer to be in a quiet setting. The photos do not do justice to the space-- it is very nice, and beautiful, and you will not be disappointed! The owners are attentive, friendly and very easy to deal with.

My wife and I stayed here in October 2010 and enjoyed ourselves immensely. Laurel and John are great hosts. The cottage is about the size of a large studio and is nicely appointed, tastefully decorated, and very clean. It's close to all the great beaches on the North Shore and Haleiwa is just a few minutes away. Suggestions: The deli next to the grocery store makes great sandwiches and cookies...excellent for picnics on the beach. Check out the farmer's market on Sunday. Grass Skirt Grill is worth a look. Romy's....yummy. Bottom line...great low-key place to stay and I'd come back in a heartbeat.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay here. This is an excellent choice for those wanting to experience a quieter area of Oahu and a truly relaxing vacation. This cottage was well-equipped and comfortable and John and Laurel are great hosts. The oranges from their tree are to die for! Thanks for a great time! Jared & Karen

My boyfriend and I stayed here in November 2009 and had such an amazing time. It's such a cute cottage with great amenities - including air-con, cable, bathtub, huge walk-in closet, a huge bed and pretty much everything you might possibly need in the kitchen! It looks exactly like the pictures show. It's in a very quite street with beautiful mountain views and only a few minutes drive from various beaches and the nearby town of Haleiwa. Laurel was so friendly and helpful and gave us great suggestions of beaches to go to and places to eat. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip. Thanks Laurel for making our trip so enjoyable!

Our stay in September 2009 was wonderful because the cottage is located in a neighborhood. A view of a mountain and minutes away from the beaches plus the weather was perfect.
