I was just looking at VRBO online, hokey smokes! Just a year or two ago there were only a handfull of vacation cottages listed in Puna, today I counted them- 1 in Fern Acres, 2 in Kalapana, 16 in Kehena, 21 in Keaau, 23 in Volcano, 31 in Pahoa,and 46 in Kapoho! and that's just on 1 website. There are 3 on my street, and only 1 is listed, so there must be scads more out there. Guess the hospitality business is really booming here, like everything else.
