Words can't describe how much we loved our stay at Mike's place! My husband and I spent our last two nights on Big Island in his cabin, and wish we would have booked longer. The cabin is just a short drive from Volcano National Park, which made is easy for us to pop over multiple times to see the lava and other attractions both during the day and at night.

There are a number of restaurants nearby in Volcano Village, and a small convenience store for buying food. Mike provides a really nice spread for breakfast though (we had eggs, granola, yogurt, fresh papaya, english muffins, local spreads and jams, and a myriad of other things to fill us up), so chances are you won't need to buy much. Mike even dropped off a warm loaf of pumpkin bread one morning!

Mike seems to have thought of everything you could possibly need while at his place - he has binoculars, headlamps and maps available for trips to the park, lots of blankets to keep you warm, and he even offered to start a fire for us. His cabin is lovely, and bigger than it appears in the photos. This is the perfect place to stay if you want a romantic spot to relax and check out the volcano.
