Recommend this stay if desiring somewhere close to the volcano national park. It was a cute cottage in the rainforest. The couple owner met us to welcome our stay.

We enjoyed our stay so much. It is a lovely and cozy cottage with everything you need during your stay. It's definitely one of our top picks for this type of accommodation.
Elaine and Carter are very friendly and have so much information on the local area, they had prepared everything prior to your arrival and made our stay so enjoyable.

We had a wonderful and memorable stay. Elaine and Carter were wonderful to meet, and were great to communicate with beforehand. The location is really a special spot, we loved hearing the tree frogs at night, and it was so easy to get into Volcano village to explore the market and to go the to national park for the day. Thank you for having us and for providing such a wonderful place.

The hosts were friendly and incredibly helpful, but not intrusive and respectful of our space. Perfect location for my husband and I to explore the park (~5 minutes away) and Hilo. The location is ideal to access Volcanoes National Park and great dining options when we wanted to eat out. We woke to sunshine and bird song each day, and the pleasant peep of insects at night. Comfortable beds, up to date kitchen and bath. Incredible value!

The cozy and very clean cottage was the perfect place to unwind from our family walks through the National Park. Our hosts were kind and attentive but never imposing. The WiFi allowed us to use streaming entertainment in our devices but we welcomed the sounds of rain through the forest over hot tea (stocked in the cottage) and conversation. Check in was a breeze and we had no issues at all through the entire stay. When we needed a sewing kit, the cottage hosts were gracious and accommodating to come right over with one! We’ll be back on our next visit to Volcano.

Clean and exactly as pictured, except on arrival we found that the heater was not functioning and the backup heat source was a small space heater. It was not enough for the square footage and our infant, as we had very cold weather during our stay. The space heater was a hazard for a crawling child. We were prepared for cool rainy weather outdoors with long pats, sweaters, rain gear, etc. It’s not as if we only had shorts & tank tops. If I had known the heater was broken I would have booked elsewhere. It seemed like the heater had been broken for a while, and I was annoyed that we weren’t informed.

Lovely cottage exactly as pictured in a tropical setting. Gated and right off the main road so no driving in the dark in the jungle. Close to VNP. Heater available for those chilly nights. Welcoming water in refrigerator, coffee pods and menus of the local restaurants to view. We stayed 5 nights and never ate at the same place. Extra blankets, towels and plenty of kitchen housewares. We cooked in one evening. The hosts live next door and were friendly and helpful.

It was a perfect location for all our activities. Check-in with Elaine & Carl was quick easy. The place had all the necessities we needed for our stay. The unit has some really good windows that can be easily opened or closed. The birds and critter noise at night was something else. We really enjoyed our evenings listing to the sounds. Thanks for hosting us, much appreciated.

This was the cleanest property I have ever stayed in. The cottage was well equipped with everything you need, especially in the kitchen. They even had some extra touches like coffee pods and water bottles which was much appreciated. It was only a 5 min drive to Volcano Village and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. We would stay here again!

Well apportioned cottage with everything needed for a short stay. The cottage is clean and nicely appointed and the hosts are quite pleasant. The bed is a little firm for my taste, but overall the stay was very pleasant.

This cottage was a great find for my husband and I. Perfect size with a kitchen. Very close to the Volcano Park (6 miles). We went into the park at 5 AM to see the active volcano. Then went back at 8 AM and were able to tour the park before it got busy. The owners Elaine & Carter recommended the early park trip & even provided flashlights. They also recommended local restaurants, which were very good! Close enough to Hilo and other small towns for touring. Great communication with the owners. We would very highly recommend this place and would stay again if we're ever back in the area.

My family and I stayed back in September. The perfect place to stay on the Volcano area of the Island. Only an 8-minute drive. Elaine and Carter are awesome and very hospitable hosts. Elaine checked in with us prior to our arrival and was very communicative. They waited and welcomed us when we arrived. The cottage itself is cozy and has its own garage entrance. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a place to stay in Volcano. Elaine has many years of experience working in the hospitality industry.

This was a lovely cottage and place to stay while visiting the park. The owners were most helpful especially as we arrived after dark. Owners provided every comfort one could think of to enhance our two day stay right down to providing slippers and lovely Hawaiian music to listen to after a long day in the park. We highly recommenbd stayin there.

The property is beautiful and the owners go above and beyond to provide a welcoming place. They thought of every thing we could have needed to make ourselves at home. No need for the AC because the windows open provide a cool breeze and even needed the heater at night in September. You can see the stars from the back yard at night when the sky is clear.
