We had a great time in pahoa. The back house was very clean, and had many great amenities like washer dryer, camping chairs, boogie boards, cooler/ice packs and mosquitoe coils/repellent. There are a lot of mosquitoes outside due to the constant rain so beware. There are roosters that will greet you every morning early to help wake you up and get you going on your big island adventures. The house has a wonderful caretaker who is very friendly and helpful. It’s about 30mins from town so be prepared to drive everywhere.
