Loved having a home away from home on the big island. We explored the Hilo side from here for a few days. Place is well situated for visiting National Park. We went to see eruption multiple times in a day. Two full bathrooms in mirrored split plan home. Our bed was very comfortable and bedroom is carpeted which was nice during chilly mornings. We would recommend a stay. This is not a fancy high end accommodation. It is clean, comfy and homey. Reminded me of my grandparents’ vacation home.

We are local residents and needed a place to stay while repairs were done at our home. We chose this cottage as it was nearby and convenient for us. The home was clean and neat and had everything we needed. We did call the property manager once during our stay - the battery in the smoke detector died and needed replacement. It happened very late in the afternoon and we didn't want to deal with a beeping smoke detector all night. It didn't take long for Dwayne to arrive and replace the battery. He didn't seem at all upset for the late call. Thank you, Dwayne! We would recommend this property if you are looking to stay close to the National Park or if you just want a nice, quiet and comfy place for a get-away. Mahalo for letting us stay at your lovely home!

We had to To make some last-minute changes to our trip so we decided to split it up by spending one half of it on the Kona side and the other half on the volcano side. This place is a true gem. Quiet and secluded it was the perfect place for us. It was our first time traveling long distance without kids. I loved being able to go outside at night and just look up and see all the stars so clearly. While we are on this side of the island, we spent some time at the volcano, walking the trails and then some of it down in Hilo. Depending on where you’re coming from just make sure you stop and get groceries before you get there. Otherwise there’s a market not too far from there in the village. Would definitely recommend this for families or people who like to explore.

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely house in the forest a few miles from the Kīlauea entrance to the national park. Beautiful landscaping and a great equipped house. Perfect for families.

Volcano is a second home to me, I still have family on the island. Loved visiting them, and then coming home to this comfortable, pretty place in the middle of the rainforest. Volcanoes national Park is my favorite place in the world.

We had some trouble getting into the property, other than that all was good. Nice heated blankets and cozy fire. Thanks for letting us stay at your place.

The property was best location to volcano national park. 10 minute drive and we could view Kilauea eruption. Although dated the property is very clean and host responsive to a couple small issues. Pilot light on heater needed lighting and battery change in one smoke detector (chirping incessantly our second night). Be aware this is located in rain forest so very humid and frequent rain/drizzle. Kitchen has basics but due to humidity spices need pounding to use. If you plan to cook, cookware is well-used and not non-stick. Cable tv has very limited channels. We chose to stream on a laptop and brought a Bluetooth speaker. Wi-Fi was good enough to handle multiple devices. Cell service was ok to talk or text. Would stay here again.

We absolutely loved this place. It is a perfect size and set up for two couples as you each have you own rooms and bathrooms, plus a full living space and kitchen. The beds were comfortable and cosy. Nice and close to the National Park.

This house is lovely and couldn’t be more conviently located for visiting the National Park. The kitchen is well organized and has everything needed to cook a full meal. We’re here with family but it would work for two couples as both bedrooms have their own bathrooms and doors that close to the living room, making each its own private suite. We would stay here again and recommend to our family and friends. The property manager was very helpful.
