We did enjoy our stay but feel like there were a lot of things that needed improvement. The place is very worn and outdated, even more so than the pictures make it seem. There is a mildew smell that permeates the whole place. It does go away once you open doors, but every time you leave and come back that smell hits you the second you walk in. There is one comfortable seat in the house, an old la-z-boy recliner. Everything else is hard wood with scratchy thin, worn, uncomfortable cushions. We came as extended family and hoped to gather for quality time in the living room. Ended up being impossible since everything was uncomfortable. None of the bedrooms had dressers, so we couldn’t unpack and had to live out of our suitcases. The kitchen was well stocked, but all the cabinets were used, so there was nowhere to put any food. The driveway was impossible to find, the small sign blended into the woods. Pros: view was gorgeous, ohana’s welcome packs were helpful, great location

What an amazing view from the very generous screened in porch! Right on the water, looking east toward Squirrel Island and the bay. Great location! There was a bit of a glitch checking in but Ohana, both from HI and local were back with us within 5 minutes to fix the problem. Can't say enough about the level of service and responsiveness from Ohana and the property owner. The house has a bit of a strange floor plan but it worked for us. Only suggestions: the sofa is pretty uncomfortable and the TV is too small to really enjoy. But overall, we really loved our 2 week stay at this house. Oh, and don't miss having at least one dinner at the Newagen Inn. The food was excellent!
