May 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful updated forest cabin From the moment we arrived on the property, we could tell it was going to be beautiful! The little cabin is situated in the middle of the forest 10 minutes from volcano national Park. The grass driveway and surrounding forestry is pretty amazing to arrive too. The cabinet itself is clean and updated, while still remaining very charmingly rustic. There's a huge shower and the water gets hot very quickly. The fireplace under the television is a beautiful addition for chili nights. And the washer and dryer were a blessing after long hiking days. The internet is also very fast! 100% would book this cabin again when we come back. ##### E'ala B.
