In the past, I left something at the facility and called them, and they went all the way to find it and retrieve it.Thank you very much for your help in that section.

Dog friendly accommodation🐶It was already very late when we checked in that night.But when I wake up and see the scenery,It's so beautiful and really touching.For bathing, we went to the natural hot springs in the nearby livestock farm.Clean and good water quality.

Previously, I used a free site, but this time I used the tree site and big site side.First of all, the toilets on the tree site and big site side are really dirty and smelly 😭 When was it cleaned? It didn't even feel like that.I stayed for several nights, but it was not cleaned at all, which made me uncomfortable.The washing area doesn't even have a roof.There is no one who seems to be the manager or there is no one on patrol.There were posts about various handmade experiences, but they were all closed...There is a store, camp reception desk, and restaurant.Is it obvious that there is a shortage of manpower? I think. It seemed like they weren't able to handle it.There was a phone number for a nearby bathing facility on the laminated permit I received, so I called to find out what hours it would be open, but unexpectedly it was announced that it was not currently in use.teeth? So I searched on the internet.All the information on the internet is different...Most of the facility information around this area is open, and I didn't have any information about business hours.I felt that things were too complicated. Showers also require reservations.Apparently you can only use it until 5:15pm.

I used the glamping area, and each area was well kept and I felt comfortable using it.You can also enjoy the park on horseback or in a buggy without having to move around. I will use it again.

Closed day after Golden Week... I knew that, but I still wanted to go 😂I couldn't experience anything, but I did meet horses, ponies, goats, and sheep!Even though the park was closed, the staff member was kind and helpful, and we had a great time.Next time, I will make a reservation and go for a horseback riding experience!

I went to Yamagata for the first time in a while during Golden Week! After visiting various places, I decided to stop by this ranch because it was a great place that I couldn't miss.

Although Yamagata Prefecture is a prefecture with many steep mountains, you can enjoy the gentle and open scenery.You can enjoy horseback riding (for a fee) and play equipment (free of charge) such as swings suspended from tall branches, and enjoy the whole day in an open environment.All facilities are closed during the winter, so enjoy the view of the parking lot and the free play equipment.Please be aware that some people may drift in the parking lot at night during the summer.

From spring to fall, you can see the horses, feed them for a fee, and even pull the horses and ride them, so I think it's a good place to bring children. The snow is deep during the winter, so it's probably closed.Although I have never used it, it seems that there is a small cottage where you can stay overnight.
