Buck is a great host - easy to communicate with and super helpful in guiding us around the area. I'd sort of consider this "glamping" - the cottage is a great place for resting from the day's adventure with the perks of plumbing, electricity, a great kitchenette!!!, today's modern wifi/connection needs & a very comfy bed! Pahoa is a great little beach community outside of Hilo and within an easy drive to Volcanoes National Park. Some great food at Tin Shack Bakery and the black sand beach down the road was a fun adventure - with some great waves for swimming in. Mahalo!
