Secluded and beautiful location

Great all around property and location. Very clean, secluded and beautiful location, and centrally located between Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and Hilo. Our family of 5 was very comfortable here and would definitely choose to stay again if we are in the area.

Excellent stay near Hilo and Volcanoes

This house had everything we were looking for during our stay on the Big Island. We wanted a place close to both Volcanoes National Park and to the town of Hilo and this house fit the bill perfectly. Plenty of room for our family of 4. The kitchen was well stocked, the full size washing machine and dryer were great to have, and there were plenty of beach towels, blankets, and even a full size cooler to use. I was a little nervous about the temperate of the house since it doesn't have air conditioning. We stayed in late July / early August and the evenings were pleasantly cool. We had to close the windows and use the blankets at night as the evenings got down to the 60s. Would definitely stay here on again on a future trip. The host was quick to respond to the few questions I did have.

Beautiful hideaway in the rain forest

If you are looking for a hidden gem, this is it. Not anything fancy or luxurious here. Beautiful rainforest surroundings. One thing, bring ear plugs, the nighttime creatures are very loud. Clise to Volcanoes National Park. Shopping needs in Kurtistown. Highly recommended for an inexpensive stay.

True island paradise

I have lived in Hawaii and also stayed on vacation several times. Linda’s rainforest home is truly the most unique and peaceful stay I’ve had. The home is super clean, and comfortable. Location to volcano park is the best you can get outside the NP. We spent the day at the park, came back home for dinner, found out the volcano was erupting (thank you Linda!) and zipped back to the park to view the glow of red lava! Falling asleep to the sounds of the rainforest is the best! You could spend hours just exploring the home’s beautiful rainforest surroundings! If you don’t stay here you’re missing out on the best of Hawaii. Shout out to Linda for being a super host and always responding quickly to questions! Mahalo! We hope to return someday!

Such a cool place!

My family of 4 loved this rustic home. The property is gorgeous and we loved all the frogs, birds and sounds of nature. It’s secluded and private, but not too far from all the sights of the island. Plenty of drinking water was provided, as well as all other kitchen and bath amenities to make our stay comfortable. The screened in porch was a perfect hangout. Linda was a great host and easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay here again!

Quiet and tranquil

Great location halfway between Hilo and Volcano. The property is away from main road and quiet. It is fenced in so kids can run around safely. There is a lot for them to explore. Make sure you take rain boots for the kids. Each bedroom has a king size bed. You will hear the coqui frogs every night. We loved the location and our stay there. I wish there was a dishwasher in the kitchen.
