Roomy and private. Great location for Volcanoes

I was warmly greeted and made to feel like home. Leon was very kind and resourceful. He gave me a lot of good travel tips about the island and it’s beaches. I’d definitely stay here again!

Don’t Come Here!

This property is in neglected condition. Filthy carpets, chipped dishes, 1/2 kitchen sink inoperative. Outdated furniture, boarded up hot tub on the deck, disgusting barbecue inoperative. Burned on food on the electric cooktop. Super slow internet access.

10/10 Exceptional

Leo was a great host at Fern Forest. It is a beautiful property, very quiet and kind of out off the beaten path. The house itself is beautiful with 3 to 4 room with their own restrooms and refrigerators. The communal living space is awesome if you get lucky, you may be the only one staying there and will have the run of the entire house I will definitely stay again!

I would never stay here again.

Well, it started with the host not being aware that we were showing up on the day we had reservations, then we were given someone else's room. You can imagine how uncomfortable it was when they showed up! the bathrooms were not clean, the carpet hasn't seen a vacuum in a very long time and there was a dank smell throughout.

B&B in the Forest

This is a large house in the forest just below the volcano of the Big Island. Only two bedrooms but several large sectional couches for family member to sleep on. No Cable but many streaming options. Needs a sign on the door with instructions and greeting.

6/10 Good

You will be greeted by a dog sleeping on front porch on a dirty & stinking mattress. Owner doesn't reply to text messages or calls when you need him.

Our stay at Fern Forest

The house is a bit outdated and a little run down, but overall, the accommodations was a decent night stay and relatively close to Volcano National Park. For what we paid for, we were not expecting a Hilton or a HoJos and nor should you. The bed was comfortable, the sheets were clean, we also had use of the entire living room and kitchen—and pleasantly surprised to a light breakfast (coffee, bagels, peanut butter, jam, etc...), which we made in the morning, and ate on the lanai overlooking the lush property, filled with native vegetation and fruit trees. Leon, our host, gave us great tips on what to do at night, and it was totally worth it. Thanks! Note, the location is in a mostly unpaved road off the main highway, we rented an SUV so it was no problem.

Character in spades

This place was great. I prefer out of town locations. Peaceful. The frogs singing at night. The troop of Geckos that visit you on the porch. Set out some juice for them and watch them scamper about. Bed was comfy. Best sleep I've had in a while. Mr. Leon is a fantastic host. But I feel like I made a friend instead. All the more reason to visit him again. Water was hot for the shower. Also it's nice to have a laundry facility in case you need it. Extra blankets if you get cold. This is not a hotel. This is a home. You should not expect anything different. Plenty of room to spread out and relax. Which is what one should do when you stay here. I learned a little Russian. I love languages and culture. Mr Leon was a character, and his bnb was character in spades. I will be back. Already planning my return to Hilo. And I will stay here again.

I have never had such a disappointing experience. And I think I can compare. I have traveled to more than 70 countries. Makes all of Africa, the Arab countries. In addition to abandoned exteriors, cars are demolition materials. The property absolutely not maintained. Was extremely dirty!!! Hair, hair, smells, not to mention cobwebs. It's cold and wet. It is very poorly soundproofed the housing is shared. But is not designed for. No need to respond to my comment as you did to others, you had seen from my arrival that I was not at all satisfied. What a relief to leave these places. I'm ashamed for myself to have accepted this. Je n’ai jamais vécu une expérience aussi décevante. Et je penses pouvoir comparer. J’ai voyagé dans plus de 70 pays. Fait toute l’Afrique, les pays arabes. Outre les extérieurs laissés à l’abandon, voitures matériaux de démolitions. La propriété absolument pas entretenue. S’était extrêmement sale !!! Des poiles des cheveux des odeurs sans parler des toiles d’araignées. Il fait froid humide. C’est très mal insonorisé le logement est partagé. Mais n’est pas conçu pour. Pas la peine de répondre à mon commentaire comme vous l’avez fait aux autres, vous aviez vu des mon arrivée que je n’étais pas du tout satisfait. Quel soulagement de quitter ces lieux. J’ai honte pour moi même d’avoir accepté ça.
