Its public rating is 4.34 out of 5 from 35 reviews; star class is not listed.
Accommodation & Amenities
The unit includes a kitchen, free Wi-Fi, free parking, and a fireplace; linens are provided. The property is pet-friendly and the source describes a grassy area for dogs. Guests have mentioned a private bathroom with hot water, but the lodging’s overall comfort and finish are more rustic than resort-like.
Setting & Dining
The rental is set in a forested area outside Mountain View, with guest accounts describing a rural approach that includes a stretch of dirt road. Restaurants and cafes listed nearby include Ohia Lehua Cafe about 8.2 km away, Wyatt’s Place about 8.6 km away, Kurtistown Cafe about 11.7 km away, and Café Ono & Catering about 15.4 km away.

Best for

Travel tips
Plan on driving: guest accounts describe a rural approach with a section of dirt road, though one guest reported that a regular car was suitable. Hilo International Airport is the nearer of the two listed airports, at about 25.7 km; restaurants and cafes are several kilometers away. Arrive with the check-in details handy, as one guest found the room identification confusing, and note the 4 PM check-in and 11 AM checkout times.
What guests say
Guests who enjoy a close-to-nature experience appreciate the rustic setting, comfortable bed, clean room, responsive host, and practical comforts such as hot water, Wi-Fi, and electricity. Some describe the lodging as more like comfortable camping than a polished hotel, which may not suit travelers expecting resort-style amenities. Nighttime coqui frog calls and, during rain, a noisy roof are recurring potential disturbances; one guest also mentioned daytime heat and cooler nights. A guest found check-in and some information about the room, hot water, and Wi-Fi unclear.
