Located between Volcano National Park & Hilo, an easy commute and a peaceful retreat from the hustle of Hilo. At a cool 1400' level & surrounded by a forest of Ohia trees, ferns and wild orchids. Enjoy the melody of the Hawaiian Thrush songbird in the mornings & evenings as they join in symphony with the apapane forest birds. Baby sparrows trill and warble for their dinner. The ohia forest rustles it’s red pompom flowers and sage green leaves in the cool ocean breeze. Views of Mauna Loa, Mauna Kea and the Pacific ocean in the distance. The huge windows in the living room makes the space feel like an observatory. We saw the biggest green meteorite blazing across the sky and split into 2 pieces close to the horizon. Just about every time we go out onto our deck we see a few shooting stars. We love to lay out cushions, make a hot chocolate and star gaze from our own deck. Stars are spectacular with clear views of the milky way.
