Near Hawaii Volcanoes National Park
Within a 60-minute drive from the Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park Visitor Center.
We have 4 pristine acres of land on the outskirts of the town of Hilo, with 3 acres of private forest, bordering on the Mauna Kea watershed, in the foothills of Mauna Loa volcano. Located in the Highlands of Waiakea Uka, at 1000-foot elevation, we are high above the humidity of Hilo. The glamping tent is situated right between the meadow and the forest. It's mostly peaceful here and it feels like being in the country. You can walk into the woods or up the road. There are no street lights, so there is a great view of the night sky. It's a great place for a Retreat, a Writer's Retreat, a Vision Quest or a Medicine Journey. We also offer Holistic and Vibrational Healing with Joy Gardner and others, and Rejuvenation through Body Work and Water in the Bamboo Bath House (see also RMAMysteryschool.com) Location: 15 minutes from the Airport, 15 minutes from Target and lots of good restaurants in Hilo, 20 minutes from Rainbow Falls, 20 minutes from Richardson Beach with great snorkeling, 20 minutes from good surfing at Honoli'i Beach Park, 40 minutes from Volcano and the Caldera.

Don’t waste your time
Don’t stay here unless you’re in a pinch. The parking spots are in their driveway, ten feet from a road. Also, no hot water at the shower. They offered using the shower in their home. If that’s your speed, have at it. Two stars

Delightful Lush Haven
Joy and her place at the edge of Hilo at the House of Light was so welcoming. The tent was a lovely place to reside with clean and equipped facilities in the jungle. We loved the bath house too. Listening to the Koki frogs and seeing hawaiian geckos it's a lush haven. Thankyou Joy!

Proche de l’aéroport. WC Sèches
Close to the airport in a secure area. The toilets and shower are functional, no worries. On the other hand, these are dry toilets, the smells can be unpleasant for some people.

Very accommodating of a last minute camp site. Pretty outdoor bathroom and enjoyed listening to the birds at night. Thanks Joy!

We loved staying at Joy's camping spot. All amenities were provided, and it was very comfortable. The shelter over the tent and cooking area protected us well from the rain, and we were able to sit outside, cook, and relax even when it was raining. We had an excellent time, highly recommended!
