this was a beautiful little cottage with ladder style stairs leading up to a cute loft, hot running water, plenty of lights, two twin beds, a king bed, and small futon for a child to sleep on. A beautiful view of the river from the front door and a nice waterfall five min away from the river house.
Pros: great temperature day and night 90%of the time (better than at home in Kailua Kona), hot showers, all kitchen things needed available, quaint ambiance inside and out, easy to find and park, great waterfall and river views, river towels and shower towels in abundance, plenty sheets and blankets, super easy check in, promo communication, easy going duplex people next door, perfect family or couples retreat or get away, nice safe area for small kids to run around in grass with parents able to rest and sit, very few mosquitoes.
Cons: fans upstairs not working, ceiling fan on hour timer, pillows a bit hard or airy, stairs leading to loft were ladder-style so not suitable for kids under 6, warmer non cotton sheets so hard to breath on humid nights
Context: we had 2 adults and 2 kids (age 2.5 and 4) from a hot area in Kona on island and a 18year old daughter from big bear visiting us.
Rained a little bit but had more than equal sunshine. We will certainly be returning in the future; we will bring our own pillows and a mat for the little one since loft is too high for the little to climb and he didn’t like the couch but aside from that, perfect little oasis.
