Volcano Rainforest Retreat

In 1995, the Goldens initially opened their first cottage to people traveling to the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The decision to become a bed and breakfast retreat was made, offering solace for artists, romantics and world-weary travelers seeking a place of refuge and intimate contact with the living volcanic earth. The four private guest cottages gracefully evolved over 18 years, building and weaving each structure into the landscape, as Peter and Kathleen refined their designs and conveyed their vision to local builders and craftsmen.
