Volcano Golf and Country Club is located on the sunny side of Kilauea Volcano summit. The golf course is 18 holes and lies in the cool highlands 4000 ft. above sea level with sweeping vistas of Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea (both snowcapped in the winter). Where else in the world can you play golf and site rare /native Nene geese, wild turkeys, and ducks along the fairways and seldom-seen Hawaiian hawks above? It is quiet, beautiful and not crowded because it's out of the way.
Our Volcano Golf and Country Club home is within 5 minutes of the golf course. The patio has been incorporated into the living area of our home and is perfect for just sitting and contemplating the gorgeous Koa forest in the common area in the back yard. The master bedroom is exceptionally large and has a queen bed and room for two additional futons on the floor for extra family members. The master bath has two sinks and a large walk-in tiled shower that can accommodate a wheel chair. The gas fireplace turns on with the flick of a switch and has blowers that put hot air into the cozy living areas to take off the morning chill and set the ambience at night. All of the counters and sinks are corian. One of the guest bedrooms has a queen bed and the other guest bedroom has two twin beds. The guest bath has a tiled shower and one sink. The floors are laminate and carpet. The ceilings are 9 ft. so there is a feeling of spaciousness throughout.
Within 10 minutes you can be in Volcano National Park where you can view Hale Mau Mau Crater, hike any of the many trails located in the Park, visit the Volcano Art Center, watch the films showing past Volcanic eruptions, attend one of the many musical performances or plays at Kileaua Military Camp or visit Volcano Village which is fast becoming an artists community. The Village boasts at least two very good restaurants and is a short 30 minute drive to Hilo for shopping, eating, and other activities. |
