If your family is like ours, and you are used to the country, this is a wonderful place to stay! The bedrooms were large and the kitchen was well equipped for us to be able to cook a variety of meals with a full-size refrigerator, oven, and stove. The washing machine and dryer were also appreciated for our family and kept us from over-packing, so we were able to just do carry-on for our flight. While there is some road noise, it is easily drowned out by the river and frogs outside and a fan (as well as the rain!) each night. Very conveniently located just outside Hilo. Expect to make friends with the house geckos, relax, and enjoy! Thank you so much for sharing your home with us!
