House was quiet and cozy. Loved the tub in the master bath and stove in the living room for making fires, which came in handy during the winter in volcano village because it gets chilly. There was a lot of wood to burn and towels for the bath. Kitchen was relatively well stocked. There was a little office area perfect for remote work. The host was very helpful and responsive to our requests. Unless you’re planning to go to the volcano national park, which is only 15 mins away, it is at least a 40 minute drive to all other sights/beaches
