We spent 3 days at this beautiful house. It is super clean and quiet, tucked in a lush surroundings. The location is perfect as it is just 1.5 miles away from the entrance of the National Volcano Park. It took us only 11 minutes to drive to the eruption parking. Walking under the moon and stars to the eruption viewing point at night and came back in no time to light up a fire in the fireplace was an unforgetting experience. This home provided all the household need (including the flashlights for your exploration at night). Also plenty of material for your cooking, including the oil, rice and other condiment, probably left by previous tenants (we contributed some too). There is a short one-lane unpaved drive (500 yards?) leading up to the house, you need to drive slow. We had no problem as we rarely ran into another car. The night/morning here can be cold , we had to put on sweaters, the fireplace also helps. The house provided enough blankets for a good sleep. We highly recommend this place if your itinerary includes the volcano park.
