(Added on 2024/8/14)I visited here for the first time in 5 years and for the first time this summer.It was run by two brothers, but I learned that the older brother had passed away.Currently, it is managed by the second generation owner and his mother.I was able to have a relaxing time this time as well.I know it's difficult, but I hope you can maintain it somehow.(postscript)Repeated this year tooMakino was in a shocking situation with 0 cm of snow, but the location is convenient for access to other ski resorts.we were able to relax and enjoy—-It's a relaxing place like a pension.The bath can be reserved for private use, making it suitable for families and couples.Wild birds often visit and get close to people.

Currently, I am staying with my wife (who was still my girlfriend at the time). The owner said, ``Please bring your children next time.'' Those words still remain with me. I'm currently a family of three, so I'm thinking about letting me stay again. I would like to say, ``Next time, you asked me to bring your children, so I decided to come again with my family.''

I feel like the store is working hard and I'm satisfied even though the prices are low.The parrot tit that eats sunflower seeds with its hands is cute and children will love it.The steak was seasoned with salt and pepper and the rice went well, but it was a little disappointing that it was cold. There was a sign warning of bears, but I wonder if there will be any bears?

Thank you for your help after a long time. A serious-looking second generation worker was working hard. My family and I washed off the sweat from cycling and had a steak dinner. It was delicious. Although there was no hot spring because the main bath facilities were damaged, we were able to refresh ourselves with plenty of hot water. In the morning, I found a green tree frog's egg hanging next to a water lily pot in the garden. When they become tadpoles, move the water lily pot straight down!

The atmosphere is good and the food is luxurious. However, I guess things are tough in this day and age...If I were to write down my bare minimum wishes, I would like the baths to be reserved. Also, the gorgeous food. Unfortunately, both breakfast and dinner were cold.

More than 10 years ago, I was unable to find a place to stay in Tsuruga City on the day of the Tsuruga Fireworks Festival, so I came to this pension. After viewing the tour, even though we checked in after 10 o'clock due to heavy traffic on the national highway from the roads around Tsuruga, they guided us with lights on the way from the parking lot to the inn in the darkness. Even though I must have said something that was too much for me, I was really grateful for the kind response I received. I was really tired from being on the sandy beach in the summer, sweating from the fireworks, crowds of people, and traffic, so I was really grateful that I was able to take a bath without dropping the boiler. The room was not large, but I was very impressed by how cute the interior was in a country style. However, I acted rudely and was reluctant to visit, but the statute of limitations has expired?! 😅If I have a chance, I would like to help you again when it is not a fireworks festival.
