If you are visiting Haleakala this is an amazing location to stay. The view is magnificent, though it was unfortunately rainy and overcast when we stayed, we got a glimpse of the view on the last morning of our stay. The summit is only a 55 minute drive from the house, which is basically the best you can get as the road is windy and slow going to get there. Pamela is a great host and thought of everything that we might need. She has a book of tips, recommended restaurants and more. Great stay, I got engaged to my fiancé at the summit, so our stay here is definitely memorable.
