Nice campground by the lake. Bullfrogs make strange noises at night. Even though it’s near the highway/road, it’s quiet.Unfortunately the toilets were not working….The toilet area is closed with rope/tape. There are faucets for washing dishes.

A simple campsite on the site of a former schoolyard by the dam lake.Although located in the mountains, it is easily accessible along the main road.You can buy firewood and simple shopping at the roadside station.Convenience stores and hot springs require going down to the town below.Nights are cool but humidAlso, as others have mentioned, anglers come to park on the premises even early in the morning (around 4am), so it's quite lively with the sounds and lights (lol)

This is a free camping site located along the Tamagawa Dam that does not require reservations.Before using it, we phoned the place where it was managed to confirm the details before using it for camping.equipment1. Small sandy area and part of the grass parking lot and free site. Cars, motorcycles, and bicycles can be parked next to the site.Easy to set up and take down the tent2, There is water supply equipment on the premises.3. Climb up the slope from the site and on the national highway side, there are separate toilets for men and women, as well as toilets for people with disabilities, with flush toilets, paper towels, and well-maintained toilets.4, benchUsage rules1, No open flames allowed2. Be sure to take your trash home with you.3. Pets are allowed, please wear a leash and the owner must dispose of excrement and urine.The advantage is that there is a direct sales store across from the national highway, so it's easy to buy small amounts of food and ingredients.Basically, it is a well-maintained and quiet campsite, but when we went there, I think it was just by chance that we arrived by car at 8 p.m. and set up our tents, and our companions arrived by car after 11 p.m. The low-level solo group members who joined us talked until after 2 a.m., and their voices echoed in a quiet place, making it so loud that I couldn't sleep. It was the worst.There are people who take it upon themselves to cause a nuisance to other users, which ruins the fun of camping.Furthermore, Todome was unable to move due to heavy rain every day and was reported after staying for several nights due to stagnation.All the worst things happened.So the place didn't even deserve one star, and now it's in the hall of fame of campgrounds I don't want to go to again.A fun trip will be ruined.

It is located on the way from Imabari City to Matsuyama. There is a shop right next door that sells locally grown vegetables. You can buy fresh vegetables at very low prices. It seems like boaters sometimes practice here. There is a parking space, but it is quite popular so you may not be able to park your car. There are only a few chairs. But it's quite popular so you might not be able to get a seat. The cherry blossoms are beautiful in spring. You can see where the ducks live. There are also clean toilets.

It seems to be the site of a school, and the site says, ``The school will be closed down, but the water facilities will remain, so you can use them as you see fit.'' However, the school building is a new building and the toilets there are clean. It is an earthen site that is thought to have originally been a playing field, and there is a water hole and a stove at the edge. There is a pavilion across the river that is comfortable for camping as there are not many people, but there is no stove and the toilets are not good.

The toilet is very clean. The site is solid. It was originally an elementary school ground, so water drainage was poor and there was a lot of dust. There are people fishing from 5 a.m. until after 9 p.m., but there are very few people camping, so it's recommended for people who would like to spend the night in peace.Most of the people camping are on tour, and many are solo, so it's quiet.

It doesn't have luxurious equipment, but it's sufficient for what you need. It's free without reservation and the ground is dirt and grass. It was perfect for touring riders.

Perhaps most of them were locals, but some people started leaving around midnight and went home.It's up to you whether you take it as a nuisance or that you have a lot of freedom in coming and going! !It's free to use, and firewood was also sold at the farmer's market across the street!

It feels more like a multi-purpose park than a campsite. There is a road right next to it, and there are a lot of cars passing by, so it doesn't feel like you're in nature. Fishermen and boaters also come here, so it is not suitable for people who want to relax. There is running water, so it might be suitable for a family barbecue.

Free site!!That's why I came here.Easy campsite where you can park your car!The toilet was also clean and nice.However, after sunset, a group of cars came and it was noisy until late at night.If it were a larger site, I could change the location, but that's not possible.A little disappointing.It's the same with any site, but if a camper with bad manners shows up, it's ruined.
