Host was communicative, house was super clean, comfortable, and well equipped. We were lucky enough to be here during episode 37 of the Kīlauea eruption and the host even sent a message and gave a call to let us know to head over to the park which was much appreciated! The gardens are gorgeous and our kids had a great time exploring in the forest.
The house was clean, well stocked (there are spices on the rack and condiments in the fridge), and wonderfully close to HVNP yet isolated from any "neighbors". Would absolutely stay here again.
Clean, comfortable, convenient home from which to explore Volcano Village and Volcanoes National Par
Our group of four adults and four children/teens had an easy and comfortable stay at this as-described property. The backyard is beautiful! We loved eating on the patio, and the kids hanging out in the yard. The location is quiet and close to anything you'd want to explore in the area.
It was a pleasure staying there...Even if it was for a short time...We hope to stay here again in the near future...We all really felt at home...Mahalo Plenty from us HK Wexler's💜💜💜
Beautiful front and back yard! the kitchen has so many wonderful appliances and spices for cooking. Bedrooms and towels/linens were welcoming and comfy. thank you so much for being so thoughtful of what a vacationer would want. The stars in your backyard last night were so incredible, we want to make it an annual journey to stay in this beautiful, serene, and comfortable home and location. thank you so much for a wonderful stay.
We had a great time for a few days at this sweet place in Volcano. The park was so close and the property had everything we needed - plenty of appliances for food prep and all was well organized and easily accessible. The backyard was beautiful and checkin/checkout was a breeze. We had no need to contact the property manager as everything was clearly communicated. Thank you for helping to create a wonderful experience with our Hawaii National Park trip!!
This home was everything we expected and more! We received permission to pick the fresh fruit from the yard. The home was spotless and the complete kitchen had just about everything you could imagine. The close proximity to the Volcano National Park provided a quick lunch break and respite from the rainfall. We found some awesome board games to play as well!
This house was perfect for our family of two adults and 3 kids. We stayed two nights to really enjoy the park. We went back at night after having dinner to see the lava eruption, which was truly the highlight of my trip! The house is clean, well equipped and comfortable, the backyard was perfect to let out our kids to run around:) I recommend bringing food with you from the Kona side, or at least Hilo for breakfast/dinner. We did and it worked out well.
We had a wonderful stay. There was a little problem with the TV but the owner took care of it right away. He even refunded some money for the inconvenience. The kids had a blast going and picking fruit and making smoothies. It was very easy to get a hold of the owner who answered right away. It was a great location.
What was really nice is everything in the kitchen was labeled on the cabinet so you knew where to find things. Very organized house.
Close to all Volcano Village amenities and activities. Close to National Park. Wished we realized it was a gas fireplace the first night (our bad for not reading entire book in home). It was chilly.
I love this house. Perfect for my family. Beautiful backyard to relax and sip coffee. Great access (short trip) to the volcano and volcano village. Has everything one would need. Simple but perfect.
Home was just as advertised. It was clean and had everything we needed. The beautiful yard was a bonus with having young children. The neighborhood was very quiet and very convenient to the National Park. Would definitely stay again!
This home is attractive, comfortable and well equipped. Not far from the main sightseeing attractions, it is a nice place to return to at the end of the day to relax and recharge. The garden is so natural, beautiful and tranquil. We loved our stay!!!
Lovely place and great location for visiting Volcano National Park
This is a delightful house and we felt at home immediately. They even have some of the same furniture we have in our house. Tasteful decor and gorgeous grounds. The kitchen had everything and the back patio was divine for breakfast - so divine we spent time there just soaking it all in. We got a taste of what it would be like to live on the Big Island because the home didn't feel like a rental. We loved it!
What a warm lovely home! We enjoyed sitting on patio among the oasis of plants and flowers. We enjoyed the lemon that had fallen from the tree in our dinner. Close to volcano and a delightful stay. Absolutely would stay here again.

About the host
Hosted by Mitch Carlson
Our family has been living part time on the Big Island of Hawaii for a few years now and love to share our experiences and all we love about Hawaii with our guests. We love to hike and drive through Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. It is truly amazing. During our travels, we have stayed in hotels, timeshares and vacation rentals and we have tried to bring the best of all three to our homes for your upmost comfort and feeling of home. We love to bring our family and friends wherever we go. Our family never wants to leave our home in Volcano or say good-bye to the Big Island. Fingers crossed maybe someday we will stay forever.
