Day trip bathing.If you come from the west side of National Route 113, it's such a long distance that you'll get dizzy, but on the way back you can just go straight to Yonezawa/Nagai. Currently, the Yonezawa area is closed to traffic.As it is far from the national highway, it has a strong local feel, and the nearby campground park is also peaceful.Naturally, the bathroom was empty and comfortable. It's a pity that the cleaning was not done properly since I used it in the morning. The quality of the hot springs is not that special.I bought natural maitake mushrooms and shine muscat mushrooms, and they were reasonably priced and delicious.

September 26, 2024I was told that they weren't doing it today, so I was told to go to Shirasagisou.It can't be helped because it's a restaurant, but it's quite a shock to be refused a bath for the first time in several days on your way back from Mt. Iide, so I'm posting the information here.I'll leave it neutral at 3 stars.

2024/9/15 After confirming by phone, it was my first visit.We arrived at around 12:30 in the pouring rain, admiring the spectacular view around Shirakawa Dam.After getting my hot spring passport stamped, she went to the back of the room to find a piece of paper and put it between the pages. This was done to prevent the ink from getting onto the next page. When I noticed that the same hot springs in Iide Town were listed on the next page, I was advised to go there as well. I had a good impression that the woman at the reception had a love for the local area.I heard that day-trip bathing will end at 13:00 today, so I wasn't able to take it easy, but when I was told, ``Please take your time,'' I headed to the bathroom, feeling the hospitality of the guests.The changing rooms have spacious lockers for each person, and are clean. Water pressure in the shower is sufficient. The kalan is a bush type and is adjusted so that the amount of water for a full basin comes out. Hot water was poured into the bathtub from two sources, one of which was labeled as a source. The water temperature is just right, and the spring quality is smooth and smooth.I don't have much time and rush to get there, but at the reception I see a customer who seems to have come from far away. It was already a little after 1:00 p.m., so I had already declined the offer to go to the nearest hot spring, but it seemed like they had thought about the customers who had come from far away and had accepted them. It took us almost 2 hours to come here, so I wasn't able to take a thorough bath, but I felt a warm feeling in my heart as I was treated with a sense of humanity and hospitality, rather than a business-like attitude.Next time, I would like to visit earlier on a day with better weather and enjoy the hot springs more thoroughly. thank you very much.

My son, mother and I stayed here.An inn with a somewhat nostalgic and calm atmosphere.Thank you for your warm welcome,I was able to relax in the comfortable tatami room.The food was delicious, with lots of delicious Yamagata food, and we also had some alcohol, so we ended up eating way too much.It was really quiet and relaxing in my room, and even though I don't usually get much sleep, I was able to sleep better than I've ever slept in a while.Everyone at the hostel was kind and polite and took great care of me, which I was really grateful for.I would also love to stay the night there.thank you very much.※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※2024.8.31This time, like last time, my son and mother stayed here for the second time.Although it coincided with a slow typhoon, we departed without any problems.They kindly allowed me to check in earlier than scheduled, and after relaxing in my room, I went to the bathroom.Probably because it was early, there was no one there.``A typhoon is coming, and we might be the only guests.''I laughed and felt so good and healed as I rented it out.Dinner starts at 7:00.When we went to the banquet hall, seats for us and other people were already set up.There were wild vegetables, mushrooms, and other delicious things from Yamagata, and the salt-grilled yamame trout was especially delicious.I had the "Momoroku", which I didn't drink last time, and it was slightly sweet and a bit like yogurt, so even though I don't drink much, I couldn't help but drink it.After eating the last dessert for dinner, I realized that it was already 8 o'clock.At that time, I noticed that no one else was there. I thought that Shirakawaso might have taken care of us so that we were the only guests staying there and felt comfortable.The next day, after a delicious breakfast, I was able to enjoy the Doburoku ice cream that I wasn't able to eat last time, and I was very satisfied.I was able to really relax and relax.Thank you very much to everyone at Shirakawaso for your consideration and courteous hospitality.

2011/3/11 The Great East Japan Earthquake devastated the Tohoku regionSubsequently, international rescue manpower and supplies continued to pour into Northeast China.The people of Taiwan not only contributed to the rescue, but also made the most donations.This will also affect Taiwanese tourists traveling to Northeast China in the future.You can always feel the enthusiasm of the Northeast people in many placesWhen I visited the snow park in Iide Town, Yamagata Prefecture at the end of FebruaryAt the entrance of the park, you can see the Taiwanese flag fluttering in the wind.The trip ends when our tour bus is leavingPark staff also rode snowmobiles to see him offTaiwan-Japan friendship is really not just a casual talkIt warms our hearts even more in the cold winter in the Northeast

Use of dining room only. Actually, I only used the soft-serve ice cream, but I'm glad that the meal ticket-style menu, which uses local products, has a special feeling that can only be eaten here.Doburoku soft, delicious♪

It's been a while since I last stayed with 6 parents and 3 couples.The bath, food, and room were nice, but what really stood out to me was the warm reception from the staff at the front desk and restaurant!Recently, the submerged forest of Lake Shirakawa has been attracting a lot of attention, and thanks to this, the adjacent inn seems to be crowded depending on the season, but originally, this atmosphere is simple but has been carefully prepared to make your stay comfortable. , I think it's the biggest win of all.I had a great time this time as well.
