Perched at eye level to one of Hawaii's most beautiful waterfalls, and is flanked by the Wailuku River and rain forest. The Falls at Reed's Island features private bathrooms, hot-and-cold soaking tubs and views from every window.

    The beauty of this home is unmatched. At times you feel like you are the only people left on earth, surrounded by a giant rainforest and roaring waterfall. The soaking tubs are so dreamy - day or night. At night you can listen to the frogs and the waterfall and see every star that has ever been in the sky. Jeff is an amazing host and you can tell he loves this place and wants you to love it as much as he does. We will be back - probably more than he wants us to be.

    We were a family of 5 with members ages 27-64. We loved the screens. It felt like summer camp. It actually gets chilly about 2am. When the house heats up midday, move to the breezeway in the center of the house. Stargazing on the lawn was magnificent. We laid on beach towels, and were delighted with the abundance of shooting stars. Bug repellent suggested. The house was a perfect destination and walking in the neighborhood a joy. Perfect spot to bond with family.

    Spectacular, spectacular, & Spectacular!! The most romantic, beautiful, private getaway we’ve ever had the privilege of staying at. The beauty of nature with every view out of the house was awe inspiring. We couldn’t have wished for more with every amenity the property, the house had to offer!

    The pictures do not do this property justice! It is simply stunning. We had so much fun exploring the property and taking it in. Waking up to these views was an amazing experience! Our only regret was not having enough time to spend at the house. With a very packed agenda, we did not have nearly enough time to enjoy it.

    First, this property is spectacular. Straight out of a Hollywood set. The grounds and house are tailor made for special events. The inside of the house can accommodate many tables and would be a beautiful venue. In addition, It’s definitely worth renting for a few days to experience the outside landscape. If you are planning to stay for more than a few days, (my husband and I stayed for eleven nights) there’s a few things worth mentioning. First, there is no real living room to hang out in. The house is composed of a kitchen and one bedroom on one end, and two bedrooms at the other end. All that is in between is a huge hallway/lanai with scant furnishings. Again, great for a lot of tables, but not a comfortable place to hang out. There is one couch on rollers, but it is more like a bed and uncomfortable if you are trying to sit in a regular position. It sits down the hall all by itself. If it is raining, which after all, it is Hilo, you are in perpetual dampness. So over all the lanai is not inviting. It has the feel of a meditation center without the cushions. Your other choice is sitting in the kitchen or hanging out in your bedroom on your bed. Be prepared for whatever weather has in store because the kitchen and bedrooms only have a wood structure with no insulation for heat or cold. However, there are fans for summer, but no heat/space heaters for the cold days. The last item to mention is the lighting. The lighting is dim at best. Frustrating if you are in the kitchen trying to prep a meal. You have to use lamps that are connected to the sink. So prep your meals before dark. In the rest of the house, it’s just dark and sadly dim. Even when it is still light outside. For the brides to be, bring your lighted makeup mirror. You’re going to need it day or night. In summary, the negative remarks ONLY apply if you want to have some hang time at a house that feels more like a home, kick back and watch TV and make meals. Otherwise, it’s a property not to be missed!

    Peaceful, exquisite setting with gorgeous private waterfalls an lush tropical forests. Just a short walk into town. The property is wonderful with everything you need for a relaxing vacation, including hot and cold soaking tubs. Well managed and appointed property. They even put out holiday dishes! Highly recommended! We hope to return again someday soon.

    This property is amazing. The hosts have thought about your every need. Please book this. Upon entering the property my husband and I got goosebumps looking at the view from the kitchen. Being able to go to sleep and wake up listening to frogs and the waterfall was surreal. The hosts truly go the extra mile to make this place a worry free paradise. I am so appreciative that they share this slice of heaven with other people. The stars at night are incredible. Being able to look at a rainbow from the soaking tubs. Jack and Jane thank you for making our 10th wedding anniversary amazing. It was so peaceful and relaxing we could have spent our entire vacation on the property. We loved everything about your home!
