Michael and Kim have a very nice little cottage within 3 miles of the volcano national Park visitor center. It was so handy for us to stay there a while, visiting and hiking in the park. Everything inside the cottage is tastefully done, and quite new. Furthermore, they left us a generous supply of treats to welcome us. Security is high at this place and the surrounding ferns and trees made it virtually soundproof, except for the bird songs. Although their water is double filtered, they thoughtfully provided bottled water for drinking and cooking. We could not ask for a better situation!
