I stayed at Log Cottage Cygnus the other day.It's a nice campsite, surrounded by nature and very quiet.However, there was one thing that made me feel very uncomfortable and it ruined my experience, so I would like to share it with you.Around 9:00 p.m., as I was lighting a bonfire in the private space in front of the cottage, a man who appeared to be a security guard came up to me and suddenly told me in a strong tone, ``Please put out the fire,'' without even saying ``Good evening.'' I got it.He said, ``It's because it's a nuisance for other people to see the stars.''"By what time do I have to delete it?" I asked.``I don't care how long it takes, but as soon as possible.'' In the end, we were instructed not to use fire after the current firewood was finished.I was confused, so I later checked the precautions on the campground's official website, but there was no mention of ``no bonfires allowed after XX o'clock''. If it is prohibited, it should be clearly stated, and even if it is, I will not be impressed by high-pressure statements.I felt strongly indignant that I was treated in the way I described above, even though I had purposely chosen a cottage, a place isolated from other people's spaces, and had lit a small fire pit for solo use. Masu.The other staff members are all very kind and the environment is very nice, so the above issue really stuck with me.This is a campsite that requires some caution.

postscriptOfficially, the temperature is said to be 20 degrees Celsius and chilly, but it was completely different. The forecast for the city center during the day was 38 degrees Celsius, and the local temperature was 34 degrees Celsius. At night, the temperature does not drop below 27℃, making it a tropical night.I visited in August, but I don't think I will return for the following reasons.・Night noiseAt the reception desk, we will ask you to be quiet after 21:00 due to quiet time, and we will ask you to explain in a way that even children can understand, but there are many adults who still do not understand, and we are not allowed to talk loudly until after 23:00 and open and close car doors. I'm concerned about the sound etc. Also, because the site is configured in a mortar shape, the sound is very resonant. If you're going to promote a quiet campsite, shouldn't you be more thorough?・EquipmentThe toilet closest to the site where I stayed had a broken lock and I couldn't lock it. I was also concerned about the smell.·pestI know that there are a lot of them depending on the season, but out of all the campgrounds I've been to in the past, there were the most horseflies, but I didn't have any damage from gnats.·FeeThe price is 1.5 to 2 times the price of the same level campground in Doshigawa that I usually go to, so from where I live, there is no reason to choose it for the above reasons.[Good points]・There is a kitchen with hot water, so washing up is easy.・The children were happy to see many frogs and beetles.・There is a large roadside station, hot springs, and places where you can play in the water nearby.・For a fee, you can dispose of your trash.
