Tenkawaminozumi Auto Camping Ground

Visit date 2024.05.18-19 (Saturday and Sunday)It was almost full as it was Saturday and Sunday.It was a very pleasant capping place, very quiet during the day and night, and the customers were all well-mannered.This was my first time on a gravel site, and it was raining the next day when I was leaving, but the gravel was nice because it kept my stuff from getting covered in mud.The site is terraced like rice terraces.You can see the lower site from the upper site, but it doesn't really matter. There was a road on one side and a fence on the other side, so I didn't have to worry about that either.There were two toilets and kitchens, one above and one below, and they were well kept and clean.Showers were located in the administration building.A very clear river was flowing nearby. It seems like they rent fishing rods with bait, so I wonder if they can swim in the summer?Small children will have fun as there is playground equipment nearby at the campground where they can play.There is a hot spring nearby and you can't go there unless you go by car.The size of the site is 70-100 square meters, ours was 70 square meters.There were two deck sites, but there were stairs to get there, so it might be a little difficult to carry luggage. However, it's a hidden place where you can see a beautiful river when you look down, so it might be good for people who don't have much luggage.I would love to go back to this quiet campsite.2024.08.20-21This time I went solo camping at the deck site.The luggage is carried from the top to the bottom using a pulley, so even if you had a little too much luggage, the distance to get to the site was short, so it wasn't an inconvenience.The site was shaded by trees, so it was cool even in summer.As expected, it was 18℃ in the morning and it was very easy to sleep.

I used it before Obon in August. Even though it was extremely hot in Osaka, reaching over 35 degrees Celsius, the site was in a wooded area, so it was cool and I didn't have trouble sleeping at night.The site is very clean and has gravel, but it's nice that the goods don't get dirty.It depends on the weather, but the stars were beautiful in the night sky and I even saw shooting stars. The children were very happy to see the starry sky that cannot be seen in the city.The river is deep in some parts, but once you get to the top, even small children can safely play on their feet (life jackets are provided).It's a really good campsite, but the problem is that there are some places where you can't go when there are oncoming cars, but I would like to come again.

I used Cottage 8 for one night. Cottage 5 was not available at the time of reservation, and it was luxuriously spacious for a family of four, but it was close to the river, so we ended up choosing this one.When I arrived at exactly 2 o'clock, I was told to temporarily park my car in front of the cottage, put my luggage in the room, and then park my car again between the entrance and the information desk. Then check in at the information desk. The information center also sells ice from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Ice cream was sold for 170 yen and 180 yen.The weather was downhill, so we entered the river right after check-in (the access is a bit steep and wild stairs, so it might be difficult for small children).After playing for an hour, a thunderstorm came, so we ended up playing in the river, which was extremely beautiful and cold. The water was cold, so I hurriedly heated a bath. The bath was spacious and had two showers, allowing four parents and children to bathe at the same time. Although we were warned not to keep the hot water running for more than 30 minutes, everyone managed to warm it up within the time. Afterwards, we enjoyed a barbecue (we didn't use a stove, but instead used a tabletop stove and griddle that we brought with us, so cleaning up was easy. However, if we use a charcoal stove, we don't leave it untouched; we wash everything except the grill to make sure it's clean.) It's convenient because the dishes are all there. After dinner, I wash them in the sink with the sponge I brought with me.) By 7:00, the rain had stopped, so I grabbed a hand-held fireworks in the square (it's dark, so I need a lantern. There's a place to dispose of the burnt remains of the fireworks. ) At 9 o'clock, I finished getting ready for bed and turned off the lights. Everyone else also kept to the 10 o'clock lights out time. There was also a heavy thunderstorm from midnight to early morning, so I was really glad I stayed at the cottage. It's a bit hot and humid even at night, so I appreciate an air conditioner, so I make full use of the refrigerator, stove, rice cooker, range, and toaster. Even selfish city kids were able to enjoy a comfortable camping experience.

This is my third year camping, and I've been to camp three times this summer.The river is so beautiful and emerald green✨️From the first time I stayed there, I knew it was a campsite I wanted to come back to again! !The owner is also a very nice person, and I can still tell him about it 3 times.
