The cabin is located in Volcano Village a small and quite town with an active arts center and just a few coffee shops and restaurants.

Due to the remoteness of the village a car is vital in getting to and from it and also makes access to the National park easier. This home is located near three other similar units so you may see other guests on site. We have hosts that live on site and are there to address and needs you have during your stay. The State of Hawai'i has two taxes which affect visitors to the islands: Transient Accommodations Tax and General Excise Tax. The taxes collected by the host from guests for lodgings stays total 14.96%, during 2020. Residents of Volcano Village actively participate in keeping exterior lighting low so the only street lights in the village are at the highway, where Wright Road and Haunani Road begin and go up through the village. Consequently, the roads are dark at night. This cottage is at approximately 3720-feet/1134-meters of elevation. During winter months it gets cool, sometimes below 45ºF/7.2ºC. For this reason visitors to our island need to bring warm jackets, as well as bathing suits. License number TA-037-427-4560-01
