48mi from Captain Cook · 1 site · Lodging · Volcano, HIAloha and welcome to Volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii, where a slower pace is our lifestyle!
My 6-acre farmstead is a mostly undeveloped, secluded jungle with a bit of forest.
Enjoy your morning with local coffee or tea, and the many native birds who call it home and a variety of free-range, engaging farm animals.
Be an explorer! Create your own trails, and see what secrets this beautiful, untamed jungle has to offer.
There is always a relaxing spot on Bear's island, offering a shady perimeter of large native trees, a nice place for some sun or an evening fire to sit back, talk story and be amazed by the millions of stars unseen anywhere else on the planet.
If you enjoy a farming or gardening experience, there is never a shortage of options.
Just a few short miles away is Kilauea volcano (I'm on the safe side of the rift zone), which began erupting December 2024. Often shooting lava 1,000 feet above the caldera rim, it is a force of nature rarely seen by most.
Just on the other side of the mountain awaits sprawling mountain views, Punalu'u Bakery, and a gorgeous black sand beach featuring one of the few places in the world that hosts a sea turtle resting sanctuary and viewing area. And there is always the coconut guy to show you how it's done!
Hilo Bay is a 20+ minute drive, boasts waterfront shopping, fantastic restaurants and bakeries, a daily farmer's market and much more.
Just north of Hilo is the scenic Hamakua Coast where you can hike through the rainforest and Waipio Valley Lookout, complete with wild horses.
Back at Volcano, there a few things of note:
The weather is TYPICALLY 72°-61°, not too windy or overcast. It can also be rainy for extended periods.
Cabin is secluded, primitive, rustic, off-grid. There is a twin bed, mosquito net, dresser, room for a sleeping bag and a bathhouse with toilet/solar shower. Device charging available. A case of bottle water is included. Potable water included for duration of your stay. BONUS...I also have no nearby neighbors.
The most useful part of your adventure is the locals. We know all the best spots to visit not found in guidebooks!
Please feel free to address special needs or request.
Book your stay today and see for yourself why the Big Island truly is paradise🤙🏻
