The beach with a beautiful sunset 200 meters from the inn is impressive. For dinner, we had so much fresh seafood that we couldn't finish it all. Enjoy the guest house at a low price. Today I will go to Lake Juniko soon.

The stairs to the second floor are a little steep. The stray cats are cute.We were served so much food that we thought we could eat it all, and the couple welcomed us.

During Golden Week, call 2 days in advance to make a reservation. From Akita, I took a local train on the Gono Line and arrived at Juniko Station in the early afternoon. Walk from the station, turn left in front of the tunnel (towards Sai no Kawara, bus stop Gangara Ana), follow the cherry blossom road, and exit the short tunnel to arrive.When I checked in and said I was going to Aoike, the host gave me a ride nearby, and along the way he gave me an explanation of Nippon Canyon and the way back.Since it was during Golden Week, I couldn't find a place to stay at my next destination, so I asked if I could stay another night, but they told me they were going out with their family the next day, but if I was in trouble, they would let me stay. The next day, I was able to take a leisurely day trip to the immortal hot springs by local train.The sunset on Shiogashima near the inn that my husband told me about is extremely beautiful, and I was very impressed to be able to see the sun setting on the horizon without being hidden by clouds. The sun setting into the sea at the end looked like the tip of a Senkou firework.Dinner is sumptuous and has a large variety of items, including sashimi caught nearby. The next day, he gave me rice balls and apple juice for lunch.The owner and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Yamamoto, were very friendly and talked to us about a lot of things, and it was great to hear the stories of local people.There is a washlet.WIFI available. I was able to watch the video easily.I was very grateful to them for driving me to the station on the way back.This is a recommended inn if you are going to Aoike.

Definitely recommend! The hosts were super nice and helped with whatever we needed. The breakfast and dinner were huge and delicious! Everything was very clean and we had everything we needed. It’s close to the coast and the views are immaculate. Overall I really enjoyed my experience and you should stay if you have the chance.

I never thought there would be an inn with so much humanity these days.Shiogashima is a guesthouse in the Fukaura area of ​​Aomori Prefecture.It was a small inn run by an uncle and an aunt, and there were some inconveniences as there was no toilet on the second floor, but everyone who visited was sure to appreciate the heartwarming reception and hospitality of the two of them.I was overwhelmed by the number of dishes served for dinner and the seafood dishes laid out on the table.Breakfast was just right and they brought rice balls for everyone to have lunch😭Furthermore, while I was chatting with the lady on the way home, she took out apple juice from the refrigerator and brought it to me😭Thank you very much😭It was an unforgettable memory.

It is a homely guesthouse.It's run by a family, so you can hear the voices of happy children.The bath was just like a home bath (apparently there are two, I wonder if the other one is like that too).Dinner was hugeDuring dinner, the inn's husband will explain the area, and the hostess will explain the menu names of the dishes.Breakfast was also plentiful.Free refills of rice, miso soup, and coffeeHe gave me plum rice balls as a souvenir.Regarding the transportation, he came to pick me up at the station, and when I told him that I had already come around Juniko, he said he would take me to Furofushi Onsen the next day.I'm grateful

I used it as a solo traveler, and the owner's family was wonderful. I thought it would be nice to go again. They picked us up from the station, went on a mini-sightseeing trip, and then took us to Lake Juniko the next morning. The food is also luxurious
