This cottage was a beautiful getaway to use as a base for exploring the nearby Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and other gems of Volcano Village. So quiet and peaceful, I only wish we had stayed a bit longer. We enjoyed the hot tub, even in light rain (the forest canopy shields you anyway!), and the privacy of the walk-in shower opening to the forest was wonderful. The front porch was a nice place to sit and knit while sipping coffee each morning.
