It was soothing to see the three raccoon dogs, parent and child. You can also enjoy a bonfire for a fee. Spending time relaxing and looking at the fire is a great way to feel relaxed. The cypress bath is also very pleasant.

About 40 years ago, I stayed there with my workmates and my family. This time I just passed by the Naguri River that flows in front of the inn to fish. It used to be called Nishiyamaso, and I was surprised to see two wild boars hanging by the entrance. I remember that we had wild boar hotpot for dinner and it was very delicious. Nowadays, an outer wall has been put up so you can't see the entrance, but the building seems to be much cleaner. I remember that in the past, it was like a Hinabita guesthouse where anglers would occasionally stay. At that time, it was known as the closest char fishing spot to Tokyo. Right now, we have yamame trout (Threkkarashi). I think the inns had more characteristics in the past, so the inns may have been more prosperous in the past.

This is a wooden-framed inn built in the midst of Naguri's rich nature. The delicious water, the air, the river, the greenery of the mountains, and the breeze all make me feel comfortable. Enjoy a hearty meal and relax in a cypress bath. This inn is recommended for those who want to relax and do nothing.A barrel sauna has also been newly installed, and you can relax in the loryu (I think it is better to confirm whether you will use the sauna at the time of reservation. Number of users, price, etc.)There is a storehouse cafe below the inn, and there are old folk house cafes, hot spring facilities, and glamping facilities along the way, so we recommend taking a drive around the area.The toilets and baths are shared, and the inn is made of wood, so the sound of footsteps can be quite loud, so it might be a good idea to be careful about noise when using it with small children.

It's a great place to enjoy nature, the environment, the tranquility, and the peace of mind.We had an empty-handed barbecue as a family, brought our own fireworks, and made wonderful memories with our children.The host is very fond of motorcycles and will talk to you about various topics, so even those who like conversation will not feel lonely in the tranquility of nature.Anyway, the rice is delicious, so please enjoy every bite.You can get a glimpse of the greatness of the proprietress who is dedicated to behind the scenes.And please give me another helping.Honestly, at first, I thought I might think "Huh?" the moment I arrived (sorry for the location), but I'm sure by the time I leave, I'll be disappointed.

When I tried to make a reservation, they first asked me how many people there were, and when I said I was alone, I was turned away and told they were sorry, but there was a funeral. So, if two people stay together, will there be no funeral? Actually, I tried to make a reservation over the phone about a week ago, but I couldn't get through even after 9 calls.I thought it was a strange place, so I thought maybe I had no luck, but this inn is becoming more and more mysterious. It made me feel that way.

I wanted to go to Lake Naguri with my girlfriend, so I was looking for a hotel in the area and made a reservation. ||||The space is limited to 4 groups per day, so we were able to enjoy it slowly and quietly. …

I used it for the first time with my husband and my son who is in elementary school. Board the bus from Hanno Station and enjoy the late autumn scenery as you get deeper and deeper into the mountains. …

A small wooden inn in the mountains. A wood stove in a cypress bathtub. Feel the warmth of gentle wood. When we arrived at the inn, the host, who had been working in the garden, was there to help us. The cheerful owner laughed and told me that he had been warned about by customers from overseas. The hotpot that came with dinner had so many ingredients that it was enough for several people. The homemade konjac was also delicious.The bath is hot, but the water quality is perfect. The hot water heated with firewood is gentle and warms your body.I came here because I was drawn to the phrase, ``If you talk with a cup of coffee in your hand, you're already in a cafe,'' but I couldn't help but notice that coffee was being served...Will you have coffee the next morning after breakfast? I just said I was waiting, yes!I suddenly looked to the side and saw a signboard that said Coffee 350yen. I am reprimanding myself that if I had noticed last night, I shouldn't have taken the trouble to drink Kiwami that had been chilled in the refrigerator.I left Emitei and went to "Sazo" right in front of me. When I left Sazo, I saw the owner of Emitei waving his hands high, saying, "Thank you very much!" What a heartwarming experience. I'm thinking of just having coffee next time. ?

I've been going to the mountain village every year for almost 20 years. On sunny days, it feels great to go fishing or eat outdoors. On rainy or cloudy days, the scent of mountains and rivers becomes stronger, which is also a good thing.
