This is truly a remarkable home. It's set back in a lush forest where every window leads to a picture-perfect view. The house was built with purpose and with an artist's eye and indeed, the owners made it themselves along with their children.
We came here with our two little ones, a one year old and a two year old and had everything we needed for them--a crib, a baby bath tub, a high chair, and even a sweet toy llama to cuddle. The house felt very safe for the little ones and it was easy to hide electronics out of the way so we didn't have to worry about them messing with the plugs.
This place is a quick drive from Volcano National Park (which as of 11/1/18 is open again) and just about a half hour from Hilo for beaches, waterfalls and lots more dining options than Volcano Village.
Enjoy this little piece of paradise and be sure to open all the shades! We seriously went around the house and took a picture of every window. Inspiration for our own artist's retreat one day!
