This is such a unique place to stay. While it isn’t the closest location to Hilo or Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, it makes up for the distance in charm and ambiance. Definitely listen to Scott’s warnings about directions and the road leading to the place, which is often full of potholes. Take it slow and you’ll be fine. The surrounding nature can get loud at night; earplugs might be needed for light sleepers. Without a doubt, I’d stay again.
