My husband and I stayed at the Volcano cottage for four nights in mid-June 2018. Our initial plan had been to stay only three, but it was so nice that it was tough to leave, so we extended our stay a bit. The cottage is simply beautiful. Everywhere you look, all you see are ferns, flowers or trees from the yard, through large windows all around in both the bedroom and the living room. But if you prefer to sleep in, there are blinds and drapes too, to keep the light out in the morning. Very quiet. Beautiful unadorned wood work, in perfect good taste. A few open windows were enough to keep the place cool, with clearly no need for AC. Candice is the most thoughtful, PERFECT hostess, anything we could have conceivably needed during our stay had already been provided by her, and more (such as the box of chocolate-covered mac nuts to welcome us). Excellent recommendations for restaurants and nearby attractions. If our travels ever bring us back to the Big Island, I would not hesitate for a second to stay there again. Thank you!
