I heard that the toilets had been renovated, but there were a lot of bugs in there, so it was difficult for people and children who don't like bugs.The sink was also very dirty, so I washed it in the on-site kitchen.The pool and campsite were great to have fun with, so the only disappointing thing was the toilets. I would appreciate it if you could write a warning to close the door as soon as you open it, or take measures against insects.Also, the shower cost 200 yen for 10 minutes, but it stopped after about 3 minutes and was full of bubbles, which made me very uncomfortable. If you knew there was a problem, I wish you would have posted a notice.

Jumping into an artificial pond using a river is the best 👋

After going to Yamanokami Fishing Pond, I came to play in the river! It was crowded with people, perhaps because it had been broadcast on TV the day before, or because it was summer vacation! My son and I enjoyed the top waterslide several times! (*^◯^*) The water in the pool was cloudy, but we had a lot of fun! It looked fun sliding on the float, so I think I'll bring the float next time I go ♪(⌒▽⌒)I was able to catch a rainbow trout at the right time, so I decided to give it a try with my son! In the end, my son didn't catch it, but I'm glad it looked fun (*^◯^*) I took the rainbow trout I caught home and grilled it with salt and ate it at home, and it was delicious ♪ (⌒▽⌒) See you again I'm thinking of going next year too♪

It was August 2024.As always, the campsite is nice and fun.The pool was very crowded and there were many day campers.Unlucky this time! ? It's a pity that there were many groups with bad manners!Groups of students who make a fuss and spread noise even in the middle of the night.Only combustible garbage can be thrown away, but cans, plastic bottles, grills, and even cooler boxes can be thrown away! Throw away 🚯 people.Even though there were a lot of people lining up for the slide, even when their child cut in at the front, they were still taking pictures ❌️Parents.Don't do things that you wouldn't do at home or at a friend's house, and don't do anything that would be embarrassing as an adult! ️The huge symbolic teepee tent was gone. disappointing.Posts in August 2022 and 2023Perfect for summer camping with kids.From 2023, the management system will be completely changed and the staff will be young people.We are working hard to catch rainbow trout, have a bonfire night with a DJ, set up a giant teepee tent, and more.Because the weather in the mountains can change easily, a fixed (permanent) tent is recommended.At the bare minimum, all you need is a change of clothes and food.Tables, benches, and tarps are included, and there are bare light bulbs inside and outside the tent, so there is no need to bring your own lighting.It is convenient to bring in electric fans, chargers, and home appliances. However, be sure to bring a waterproof extension cord.When loading and unloading luggage, you can park your car next to it, making it easy.During the summer, you can enjoy the diving pool filled with river water and the waterslide until 5pm.The diving pool is deep and I've seen many children drowning, so it's safe to have a life jacket. Never leave your child unattended!You are required to act responsibly and responsibly in all matters.For lunch, you can also eat at the nearby fishing pond ``Issunboshi''.There are no vending machines on the premises, and it takes about 10 minutes by car to get to the nearest store where you can shop, ``JA Kamomoto Y Shop Uchida Store''.The Y Shop is close to Sagara Temple (Sagara Kannon), which is famous for praying for safe childbirth, so while you're praying, you can have a snack of chestnut manju or rice crackers in front of the approach.Only combustible garbage can be collected.Don't throw away non-burnable garbage!Please note that showers that are available 24 hours a day tend to break down due to age. Have lots of coins.

I visit you every summer vacationFamily Can can satisfy up to junior high school students, and above all, it's safe! Adults can play without getting bored while setting up a tent or building a fire.Even in the middle of summer, the Higurashi trees are singing and there is shade, so it's very comfortable ☆ 彡The auto campsite has a sink installed in each section, and privacy is ensured by the height difference so that you don't clash with your neighbors.This is Kumamoto's most comfortable summer resort camp, where you can catch rainbow trout and catch insects.The restrooms other than the administration building have been completely renovated to Western style, and the pool is frequently cleaned. I am very grateful for the MORE-than-BEST management attitude.

Staying at KevinDouble decker air conditioner, fan, no TV.A style that feels the breeze of nature.That day, the temperature was 37 degrees Celsius, and there was no wind at night, so I woke up many times from the heat. Beetles and stag beetles were flying to the screen door.There are two pools, one for diving and one for water slides.Since it uses spring water, you can instantly cool down even on very cold and hot days.It was a good summer memory.
