Private cottage limited to one group per day! The first floor has a kitchen, living room, and a toilet with the latest washlet. Wifi is fully equipped (but weak). Used kitchen utensils must be returned to their original locations. Separate trash and put it in the trash. The bedroom is on the second floor up a very steep ladder-like staircase. The futon has an illustration of a bear on it. If you are coming by car, you will have to make a U-turn from the Hakodate direction due to the median strip. Due to the difference in height, cars with a low ride height will be scratched. If you use public transportation, we will pick you up and drop you off at the cottage (free of charge). Apply in advance? Apparently you can also try chopping wood. . It's a wonderful cottage. The downside is that the toilet doorknob easily comes off. Because it is close to the national highway, there is some noise from cars passing on the national highway. There's no air conditioning and it's hot, so we have to open the windows and pull down the screens. However, even if you close the screen door, there are gaps that allow insects to sneak in. That's about it

It was said to have good external insulation, so it was much warmer than it looked.There are cooking utensils, tableware, and a refrigerator, so you can comfortably cook your own meals!The wood stove gives it a nice taste.

The couple were both very nice people.The wood stove was too warm. I wear short sleeves all the time in my room. Even when I came back from snowboarding at night, the room remained warm. Although there is no bath, you can get a hot spring ticket! I guess that was a good thing.I hope to help you again next year!

I enjoyed the wood burning stove. Even if you turn it off when you go to bed, it has good insulation so you won't feel cold at all! There is also a kitchen so you can cook your own meals.

I'm glad you welcomed the cat.A cottage with a long-awaited wood-burning stove! It was very warm. The view of Mt. Yotei from the window was also amazing 🙌 We also had a BBQ and it was a lot of fun! Both the cat and the owner were having so much fun that they had a blast. Sorry 🙇

It's small, but it's well made, and the price was good.It's a little disappointing that there's no bath, but I'm thankful that they give me a bathing ticket to the nearby Niseko Kira no Yu.Anyway, the wood stove is wonderful.When it comes to firewood, coniferous or birch trees, which have a lot of oil, will ignite quickly, but they also burn out quickly, and hardwoods are interesting because they last a long time.Firewood is provided here, so there is no need to prepare it.Around 24:00, I got ready for sleep and burned as much firewood as I could, but it was still all burnt out in the morning.However, even though the temperature at dawn that day was -15 degrees Celsius, it was still warm until I woke up, perhaps because the building was well constructed?I had a very comfortable stay.One last request: I would like them to provide the minimum variety of tableware and cooking utensils.I think it would be a good idea to have it as an additional paid option.We want to focus on creating a great atmosphere.

The cottage is small and relaxing. There is a forest all around, and it feels good to walk through it. There is a cafe right next door. Close to the center of Niseko.
