One word is wonderful. Even though it was the low season, the leaves were still in the fall, and although I was a solo camper, it was warm and I didn't feel like I was alone, so it was fun.I want to come again and again.

The campground is beautiful with lots of trees and high quality appliances. But if you are sleeping in a campervan you end up segregated to an old tennis court which breaks the whole magic of the campground. I hope they change their rules and allow campervans to park on a place more integrated with the rest of the camp.

🏕️This is a well-planned camping ground located in Kamikawa Town.🏕️We chose the "Weekend Move-in Cabin". The cabin is not very spacious, with bunk beds for four people, and two people on the ground. There are tables and chairs. The space is small and cozy, and there are plenty of sockets.🏕️But the important point is that the "weekend mobile cabin" can use kitchen equipment, and the kitchen equipment is complete. There are a total of five sets of kitchen utensils in the large kitchen, and the pots and gas stoves inside can also be used freely. There are also four dining tables. Overall, the space is large, clean and warm.🏕️The other room next door has a coin-operated bathroom, toilet, washbasin, washing machine and dryer. It is also a neat, clean space and well-equipped.🏕️ Because the facilities are complete, the price is actually not cheap. The "Weekend Migration Cabin" costs ¥9,000 a night, and there is an additional head fee of ¥800 for adults and ¥400 for children. The price is actually high, but because of its remote location, there is wifi available in the park, which is very ideal.

[20 minutes to Sounkyo Onsen]◆Auto siteRecommendation level: ★★★★★Price: ¥1.500/per person, admission fee ¥1.000/personSite surface: Grass, easy to pegReservations: Advance reservations are best.IN:1300~ OUT:~1000(No early check-in)Garbage: Separate and accept (free of charge)Toilet: FlushBonfire: No open fire allowedShop, product sales: Sold at the administration building. (No perishables)Other: Showers and coin laundry available in the administration building area.Along National Route 39, heading towards Sounkyo Onsen, the Rikuman area.A campsite that is rich in nature, or rather, surrounded by nothing but nature, spread across the Ishikari River and spread out on the mountain side.Reception starts at 1300 in the administration building that was renovated about two years ago.There are currently 8 designated auto sites.A spacious area of ​​10m x 10m or more, including the parking space.It's all grass, but there's gravel just below it, so it's better to use forged pegs because you'll hit a lot of stones when you drive.The power is not on.A clean kitchen and fully flushable toilets are also nearby.Garbage can be separated and accepted for free.The natural forest of Sounkyo is a habitat for wild animals such as foxes, deer, and of course brown bears, so please be careful about garbage and food management.In the morning, crows were making noise in the trees with plastic bags in their mouths.There are no convenience stores or supermarkets nearby.The nearest convenience store is in front of Sounkyo Onsen, about 20 minutes by car.Discount tickets for Sounkyo Onsen are also available at the administration building.This time we have discount tickets for day trips to Asahi Resort and Asahi Tei.After 1000 OUT, the only day trip hot spring you can go to is Hotel Daisetsu.Take your time in the Manka-no-Yu open-air bath on the third floor.By the way, the sunrise starts at 1300.It's far from the national highway, so you won't hear any noise at night.However, the deer are more active at night, so they wander around the site.I want to be careful about sudden jumps.Just a short walk from the site, you can enjoy the starry sky on a clear night.

I stayed at a cottage for the weekend. The room was clean and had a small refrigerator. The weather was nice so I was able to see the beautiful starry sky. As for the bath, the shower facility was crowded, so I used a day trip hot spring in Sounkyo, which was about 12 minutes away by car.Unfortunately, several climbers in their 60s who were staying next door started preparing at around 4:30 a.m., and at that time the sound of doors opening and closing echoed many times. The whole family woke up. I would like everyone to be aware of rules such as quiet time. I also thought that there were only a few men's restrooms for weekend cottage guests, one large and one small, and that the men's and women's restrooms were located too close together.

While touring Hokkaido, I came south from Lake Kutcharo to avoid the rain and stayed here. I only bought beer and snacks, but I was able to use the discount coupon I received for Sounkyo Kurodake no Yu to take a bath and then eat some food nearby.
