This place may be "off the grid", but we deemed it "off the charts". Connie was a great host, even though we only interacted with her at the outset to review what to expect and what we needed to do when we left. She was always available if we needed her; but we asked her for her advice at our initial meeting and she gave us all the best info we could want. Our synopsis....do what Connie recommends for hiking and make sure you check out that little coffee "plantation" on South Point road with the perched red tractor. We were there 25 minutes and learned a lot and bought some delicious chocolate.

We enjoyed Connie's 20 acres. The 3/4 round trip walk to and from the gate was amazing every morning and every night for her beautiful landscaping, stars, and safety. We knew this place on night 1 (of 4) would be our favorite place for it's beauty, privacy and proximity to most places.

Check out Kilauea Iki trail in VNP. Great hike!
