This is my favorite campsite.The campers were all well-mannered, and I never met anyone strange.Even though there are toilets and showers, I am very grateful that he manages them all by himself and keeps them very clean.When I first came here, I saw repeat visitors cleaning the pond and washing area together with the owner, and I was impressed by how much the campsite was loved.I would like to be a repeat customer like that too.

・I want to make noise until midnight・I want to play music・I want to give priority to having fun freely rather than following the rules of the campsite.・I don't like loud noises (bear gas cannons come from the surrounding mountains)This is not recommended for campers who fit the above criteria.The bonfire cutoff is 23:00, but many people go to bed by 21:00, so it's always very quiet.During the summer, many people use the day camp to play in the river, fish, and have BBQ, but they want everyone to have a comfortable time, so they adjust the number of reservations so that cars and sites are not packed with sushi. is. When there are many cancellations due to weather etc., you can have a very relaxing time.The left and right sides and back of the lot are separated by ropes and plants, and although the opening is not marked, the lines connecting the stakes are used to enclose everything including the pegs and parking.It is a 9m x 9m lot.Two-thirds of the site is opposite each other with a single-car passageway in between, so if even one car has its nose sticking out, it will be difficult for other cars to pass and enter and exit.Although the toilet is temporary, the manager cleans it frequently so there is no smell or discomfort. The common areas, including the washing area and shower room (200 yen for 10 minutes x 3 rooms), are very clean and comfortable to use.In addition, before 10:00 p.m. when showers are finished and when cleaning is being done, they visit each site one by one and ask if there are any problems. Thanks to this, there seem to be many campers with good manners.This is a wonderful campsite where you can spend your time with peace of mind.

It's the best campsite.The manager is very kind, the cleaning is thorough, and there are strict rules to make everyone's time comfortable.Some people who didn't understand the meaning of the rules wrote sad reviews that seemed to be slanderous...If you are a true camping fan, you will immediately realize that it is a wonderful place!Stereo (anything that produces sound) is prohibited, soFor campers who want to feel nature quietlyThis is a highly recommended campsite.At night, everyone becomes quiet before lights out.On the other hand, I think it's better not to come if you can't follow the rules to ensure everyone has a comfortable time.

The owner's personality is nice, the location is nice, and I always feel relaxed.The common areas such as the toilets, kitchen, and shower rooms are constantly cleaned, so you won't feel uncomfortable.The most recommended thing is that the river is so beautiful that the kids love playing in it in the summer. There are places where the current is fast and there are places where it is deep, so it is safe to wear a life jacket. However, depending on the time of year, there are a lot of horseflies, and if you get bitten, you'll get swollen, so you'll need insect repellent, ointment, and long sleeves/pants.It's a campsite that you'll want to go to again and again to relax.

The management's response is the worst!It was the last Saturday and Sunday of July, and the campground was empty.Why are there so few customers?The manager is name-calling the customers!! ️There was no guidance when entering, and I complained that the car was sticking out a little outside the frame at night!I haven't even drawn the line properly!Even though I'm not bothering anyone...Are you drinking and complaining to customers?The way he speaks is strange too!This is an unusual way to tell guests at a campsite that if they don't like it, they can go home.This is my first time at a campsite like this.

It was great that the cleaning was thorough and they listened to my concerns.The river is relatively shallow and the current is calm, so it's safe for families with small children.
