It was SO peaceful and relaxing to stay here. Both pets are very friendly and sweet. Domino, the cat, kept me company on the porch as we listened to the birds and frogs. I think I heard a pig too. Jessie is very friendly and responsive to my questions. The location is about halfway between Hilo and Volcanos National Park (closer to Volcanos), so a great way to explore both places but come back to your own sanctuary.
