We stayed here in January 2024. Great place and priced reasonably. The house is very clean and comfortable. Complete amenities inside. Jon is very accommodating. Happy to pick us up from the train station on arrival and drive as back to the bus station when we left. The car available to guest is quite small but very handy - saved us a whole lot of time going to different ski resorts and even getting supplies from the supermarket in the area, certainly made our stay memorable.

Amazing place in a perfectly centralized location in Hakuba with easy access to all the Hakuba Valley resorts. Close enough to walk to the action in Echoland but far enough away so you can get a nice peaceful nights sleep. Owners John and Yuki have put a huge amount of attention to detail into building Ryders house, and they are the best hosts! Highly recommended!

We have been very lucky to find Ryder’s house. The place is brand new and well equipped. It is warm, clean and has everything you need for a perfect stay. Free shuttle bus to skiing slopes is just around the corner like various restaurants. But the biggest advantage of this place are the owners. Yuki and Jon took very good care of us (picking from the station, driving to supermarket, etc.). We felt like visiting good friends. Finally, our kids fell in love with their dog Ryder who was the star of the whole visit.

Our stay at Ryder’s House was incredible. Jon and Yuki, the owners, are some of my favorite people I’ve met during my time here in Japan and their rental property accuraty reflects why.The house is charming, newly-renovated, and modern giving you West-meets-Japan vibes. Jon told us he spent the last several years renovating the place and his hard work shows. He has an extreme attention to detail.The kitchen was fully stocked and Jon took the time to explain where everything was placed. There are English labels all over the Japanese appliances which made everything clear for us. I liked the label on the microwave on how to warm up drinks - made for nice hot sake.The two bedrooms upstairs are outfitted with king or Japanese double beds (they separate) and enormous comforters. I happily slept like a rock each night without any issue. The curtains and black out shades did their job and blocked out the light, allowing me to continue my beauty rest.The location is about a 5 minute walk to Echoland, a small district for restaurants, bars, and free shuttles to all the Hakuba resorts. I had reservations about being away from some of the resorts and other town centers but it truly was convenient. The only way it could have been easier if there was a ski lift right at the front door. Echoland was exactly what we wanted after a long day of skiing. Great food, impeccable hospitality, and of course, plenty of drinks for apres ski.It’s a three day minimum to reserve Ryder’s but if you can, book more time. We barely feel like we made a dent in Hakuba and wished we stayed longer at Ryder’s House. Thanks for the unforgettable experience!PS if you’re lucky, you might meet Ryder, a very handsome Golden Retriever who can salute, while Jon walks him in the neighborhood.

Booked Ryders House last minute directly Jon who was very helpful with local information on the phone.The house is well presented and has all the amenities required it is only 5 minutes walk from two free bus stops from which you can get to most of the nearby ski resorts and 15 mins walk from the centre of Echoland.Jon and his wife went out of their way to help us out with any requests we had picking us up from the bus station on arrival even driving us to the supermarket for provisions and to distant ski hills really excellent service.My only feedback would be to install some fixed heating in the bedrooms.Overall we had an excellent experience in Ryders House and would recommend it as a base for skiing.
