Of the three places we stayed in Hawaii, this was the best. My wife adored the log cabin. Rustic, yet modern, in the middle of a rainforest and literally 5 minutes from Volcano National Park. Cafés, restaurants, and a general store are on the corner/down the block (they are pricey and not the best food, but super convenient). There were some "characters" at the laundromat - but that somehow added to the mythology. The bedrooms aren't very private, and the second toilet is quite a thing to see ;) All in all an amazing place for a small family.
