If you want to stay near Volcano National Park this is the place! It is a beautiful location. The positives are that this is an awesome location only two miles from the park and the property its self is one of a kind. There are a few good restaurants within a mile of the home but you will need to prepare your own breakfasts. The only thing that may be a negative is that you will be at least 30 minutes to Hilo and if you are venturing out to the falls or gardens north of Hilo it is close to an hour drive. Overall a fantastic place to stay in a very unique location.
