1 Bdr 1 Bth House With Whirlpool Tub
This peaceful country home is considered a " private residence" with a detached living area. It is located in a rural area away from tourism and off the beaten path. There are two separate structures situated in a way to provide privacy from one another. There is a main 1-bedroom house (this is the rental) and a smaller "cottage". We are located 1/2 way between Volcano National Park and Hilo; being 1296 sf under roof and a totally furnished 1 bedroom, 1 bath house on 2 acres. The relaxation experience is enhanced by a private 1-person whirlpool tub, quiet surroundings, and lots of songbirds. The bedroom has one queen size memory foam bed with and a walk-in closet. The living room has a sofa and a futon that will lay flat. The dining area consists of a 4-seat dining table and a kitchen bar. The bathroom has a walk-in shower and a whirlpool tub. There is a front porch for relaxing and listening to the birds. You will find this house very comfortable with all the amenities you need. Everything is included; all appliances; including washer / dryer, microwave, dishwasher, dishes, towels etc. Just bring your suitcase. There are many adventures to explore in East Hawaii such as Akaka Falls, Rainbow Falls, black and green sand beaches, tropical gardens, newly formed (2017 and 2018) lava fields and cones. It is a newer house and although this house is close to various vacation spots, it is off the beaten path located in a country atmosphere. The rate is very affordable, allowing you to stay just a little bit longer in Paradise. I hope that you will come relax and explore our beautiful Island. INTERNET** Internet usage is unlimited data but after using 100GB the speed slows down behind other users. If you need a lot of fast internet you would have to provide your own hotspot.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. The bathroom has a jetted bathtub and a hair dryer. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
This smoke-free vacation home features books, a video library, and snorkeling nearby. Recreational activities include surfing/body boarding nearby, hiking/biking trails nearby, and kayaking nearby.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Cosy Getaway
Excellent stay and a get place to stay at if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle. The house is in the countryside and the road is a bit of a rollercoaster to get to it, but it is well worth it. There are many places in close proximity(20 to 30) where you don’t feel like you are too far away. Highly recommend.

It was what the explanation said. Quiet getaway. House was a perfect size and very clean. Short drive to Volcanoes National Park. Great for nature lovers. But not too far from Hilo. Expect the sounds of nature: Rain and chickens.

lovely property, private and remote
Very nice roomy house, very private although no one was staying in the 2nd house while we were there. It was a 4.3 mile drive down a side road that took about 12 minutes off the main road, it was fairly close to the volcano. For our trip it was centrally located for where we needed to be. Well clean, nicely furnished, wifi, bath, beautiful setting.

Relaxing
My husband and I had a nice, and relaxing time at this property. So beautiful and quiet. We loved the Koki frogs as they made noise, but in the house we couldn’t hear anything. We definitely would love to stay at this rental the next time we visit.

Great refuge
If you are looking for peace and quiet, this is the place. It was an excellent match for a couple. The location has easy access to early morning Kilauea visits. We explored Hilo, snorkeled at Carlsmith, explored Kalapana and the Red Road, we visited Kaulana Manu. The property was a good base with a 4 mile rollercoaster road that was fun

A short but sweet stay at Patty's home
We loved the place! It is a hidden gem - roomy, clean, fully stocked, and beautifully decorated. It is very conveniently located halfway in between Hilo and the Volcano national Park. I gave everything else five stars but four stars for the location and neighborhood and accuracy of listing. Because the property is away from the major road. We had major difficulty finding the place in the dark. When we called Patty, she answered right away and provided additional instructions, which was very helpful. The address on VRBO is wrong. I understand Patty tried to change it with VRBO but could not. To be fair, she provided detailed directions that is accurate to the "T." but it was our first time visiting the island, we arrived almost 11 pm and it was very dark! Had we arrived during the day, her directions would have taken us directly to the gate. All in all, we loved the place. If we come back to visit the Hilo side of the island, I would not hesitate to stay at her place again.

Best Property for Visitors and Residents Alike!
I live in Hawaii and was looking for a place to stay while visiting my parents on the big island with my boyfriend and we found this property less than 5 minutes away from their house. It is so beautiful and Patricia was an amazing host. She made sure we knew exactly what to do for check in and check out. The house was clean and she even left us a little gift of chocolates for us to enjoy. If you are looking for a place to stay I highly recommend this property! Mahalo to Patricia for letting us stay and we hope we can come back again one day!

Beautifully Appointed House
This is a beautiful house both inside and out. A locked security gate protects the grounds which are surrounded by beautiful foliage for added privacy. The house is equipped with everything needed to run a houshold. Just open the door and start the vacation. The slightly remote location was perfect for me as it allowed me to experience the sights and sounds of the area. Patty was very helpful with accurate directions and checked in with me to see how I was doing.
I would not hesitate to stay there again!

Beautiful Home in Fern Acres
We came to explore the schools and look at properties in this neighborhood. To our delight this was the perfect location. About 30-35 minutes to down town Hilo, equal distance to Volcano, secluded yet not too far from anything. Patricia was amazing and helpful and we were so thankful for her assistance. We can’t wait to get back!
