Excellent location for exploring Vocano Nat'l Park, Hilo and Hamakua Coast. Andy and Don were excellent hosts and we really appreciated the special treats that made us feel at home. This place is off the grid and that was perfect for us and our needs. We just needed a place to shower, charge phone, enjoy some quiet time and fix an occasional meal. We couldn't see or hear any other people but rather enjoyed the sounds of frogs, birds and other critters. The ZEN house was PERFECTLY stocked with everything we needed and MORE. Andy had all the little touches one might forget, like q-tips!!!! I HIGHLY recommend this location!!!
