Independent Wood Valley hotels

"One doesn't really go to the lodge for its fabulous amenities. It is a piece of history and as such - sure, it's dated, no TV most rooms are a bit small and the washrooms are tiny - But clean. You go there for the volcano! This time around (our 5th time staying here) the volcano was right out front. Nice dinner in the pub with a non stop view. Plus we splurged on the large park side room and watched the action all night. The staff are truly wonderful and live the Aloha spirit. Highly...

"We’ve stayed in the Volcano area three times and this was the best accommodation by far. Check-in was flawless and our room was clean, large, and comfortable. The hosts have thought of everything.

"Great location "

"Overall I'd give 4.5 stars. Great location if you want to be close to the National Park.

The dehumidifier in the room would not work, despite the instructions to juggle the tank until the light turns off. I suspect this is the cause of the smell. Otherwise the accomodations were fine, bed was not very comfortable but worked after a long day hiking. Check in and check...

"Great location. Fantastic staff. Cool tropical style buildings. A bit noisy on the ground floor. Grounds also well maintained "

"Super comfortable and well appointed room in a delightful setting near Volcanoes National Park. The barn yard animals roaming the grounds were delightful!"

"Beautiful property. The room was rustic and very nice. The bed was very comfortable. The grounds are beautiful. The text messaging for any needs is a wonderful idea. "
