The cabin is very close to Volcanoes National Park and is located in a very quiet neighborhood, so it's great if you want to visit the Park for more than a day. It was a nice rental off the beaten path but close Volcano Village and about 45 minutes from downtown Hilo. We enjoyed the wood burning stove on the colder, rainier days, and it had the amenities we needed. The microwave is in the garage, and we used the stovetop and toaster for making breakfast. Electric kettle and 5-gallon bottled water was a plus. We had varying water temperatures with the shower, but overall it was a very relaxing, nice, and peaceful rental.
