Perfect location for Volcano NP
We had an absolutely perfect stay at this sweet hale outside Volcanoes National Park. It was perfectly located right outside the park so you can be an early bird getting there first before the crowds. The place was beautiful situated in the rainforest area outside the park so you got the experience all the beauty and nature the area has to provide. The hot tub was a wonderful touch especially after a long rainy day adventuring. The hosts were super quick to respond for anything we needed during our stay as well. We would happily stay here again in the future!

Magical place mere minutes from Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park
Cute, exceptionally well-stocked place with a cannot-be-beat location hot tub and other comfy amenities for those chilly Volcano Village nights. Want a beach day instead? They have those items for you as well. Highly recommend, except on those days that I will want to come back — because I most certainly will! Stacey, owner, was highly communicative.

Great location with amenities
Excellent host communication before and during our stay. The location was well stocked and we enjoyed in particular the mini electric fireplace and heated mattress pad - made for comforting times after visiting the Volcanoes National Park.

A little gem in Volcano
We had a lovely stay. It was just right for the two of us. We loved relaxing in the hot tub. The dehumidifier did a great job keeping out the humidity and was useful for drying things out. The heated toilet seat was a nice touch We

Amazingly peaceful
We got to the house on a Saturday evening, check in was easy and we had no issues. We went to the Cooper Center Farmers market on Sunday morning and loaded up in fruits and vegetables and actually ended up making most of our meals at the house instead of eating out because it was just so peaceful to be there. Very clean too!

Cozy Seclusion
We highly recommend this quiet, cozy stay near Volcano National Park. It was a short drive (<10 min) to the park entrance allowing us to get there early and beat the crowds. Stacey communicated before and during our stay to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed which we appreciated. Her place was very clean and very quiet at night except for the sounds of the rainforest birds singing which we absolutely loved! We will definitely book this place again when we go back to Volcano.

Fantastic!
My family chose this property because of the proximity to Volcanoes National Park and we were beyond pleased our stay! The house is adorable and well decorated, very comfortable and plenty of space for the 4 of us (2 adults and 2 tweens). It feels very secluded and the bird songs are relaxing. The host stayed in contact and responded quickly. The hot tub was wonderful! We had everything we needed and thoughtful items we appreciated.

Peace in the Rainforesrt
This home is absolutely beautiful. The owner has put so much love and attention into every little detail, from the beautiful art, beautiful and comfortable bed, bright walls and tons of windows and fresh flowers everywhere. The location is perfect, just a short drive (less than 3 miles) to the National Volcano Park and Hilo is about 20 minutes if you want to explore. There is a small grocery store a couple of nice place to eat right outside your door. We especially loved evening walks along the long quiet road and then enjoying glass of wine while star gazing in the fabulous hot tub. The property is beautifully landscaped and lush with greenery. The weather is perfect and the added touch was the fireplace for snuggling up on the couch. Breakfast coffee on on the front porch was so peaceful just listening to the birds and the breeze in the trees. Don't be deterred by no AC. You don't need it. The fans are more than adequate. You will be turning on the fireplace before you even think about turning on an air conditioner. Stacey is a jewel, communication and directions were excellent.
