The kitchenette is equipped with a toaster oven, coffee-maker, and mini-fridge for your essentials. Drinking water is rainwater catchment that is filtered and sterilized using UV light. All taps provide potable water. However, the plumbing and water heater are old so we ask to be mindful of water use!<br /><br />You'll sleep snug in a king-sized bed with plenty of comfy pillows and blankets to choose from. The skylights do let in the morning sun so consider a sleeping mask if you’re sensitive to light. Volcano is at 3750ft of elevation. Days can be cool and nighttime temps often dip into the 50's so its great sleeping weather. Start your morning strolling private trails and investigating lava features on the property.
