If you are looking to stay off the beaten path, actually see the stars at night and listen to the sounds of nature. Joe's place is the place for you. Joe and his awesome dog Brando make you feel welcomed from the beginning. Joe's hospitality and knowledge of the area are greatly appreciated. It is a bit of a drive to the city of Hilo but the drive is beautiful and there is so much to see on the way. I highly recommend Joe's place! Check it out and experience the serenity of being away from the city.
