(Stayed on February 22, 2023)This was my first visit after the complete renovation.The room and bathroom were clean, and the food was very satisfying.It was soothing to soak in the hot springs while looking at the snow through the large windows that covered the whole wall.The wood stove was so warm that I ended up dozing off with the flickering flames (lol)This is a highly recommended inn that is already guaranteed to be a repeat stay!Also, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the owner and his wife for their warm hospitality.thank you very much!

I use it every year during the hot summer months.The barbecue here is exquisite.The inn is located at an altitude of 1600m, so you can enjoy a cool barbecue even when it's extremely hot below.And the location is great. You can grill delicious meat, seafood, and seasonal vegetables while looking out at Mt. Kuruma and Mt. Kirigamine.

I use it every year to participate in events. It's a great location to relieve the fatigue of touring and is close to Venus Line.

When I went outside and moved a little away from the building, I saw a sky full of stars. It was so beautiful. I stayed in a Japanese-style room with my friend and child. The Japanese-style room felt old. For meals, you could choose to have BBQ, but it was served indoors. The dining room is also cute. I had a leisurely Western-style home-cooked meal ♪ The grilled fish in foil was impressive. It wasn't a fillet, but one small fish with a head attached.I thought it was cheap as it included breakfast and dinner.

This is my first time going to the south side of Lake Shirakaba.At first glance, I thought it was a normal inn, but the interior is quite elaborate and looks nice. There are Japanese-style rooms and Western-style rooms, and at first glance they look normal, but the Japanese-style rooms have different rugs on the tables, and the cushions are different for each room. The Western-style room was also a bit of a surprise. It is a calm lodge with free space.Best of all, if the morning is clear, the view of the mountains is spectacular. I never expected to be able to see the Utsukushigahara radio tower and mountain hut ridgeline from right next to me. You can also see Mt. Asama. Shirakaba Lakeside is a bipolar area of ​​luxury and group accommodation. This place feels just right and calm, so I recommend it.
