The first time was for solo use, and the second time was for a group. It's a very comfortable place and the manager was always very accommodating. You can stay out late for only 500 yen on the day, and the toilets and water area are well maintained. It's basically a free site, so if it's available on weekdays, you can camp with a lot of freedom and stress-free, so we recommend it. The third time I went there, I tried to avoid the intense heat in the flatlands, but it was still 32 degrees Celsius. But it was comfortable because you could cool off in the shade of the trees and put your feet up at the edge of the river (the kids were playing in the water). The second time, I encountered Badger-kun (he's ferocious, so you shouldn't touch him), so I'd like to meet him again. At the beginning of July, it is empty on weekdays, but it seems to be full on Saturdays and Sundays. On Sunday, July 24th, I had my first trout set meal at the cafeteria. Auntie carefully grilled the trout with the perfect amount of salt. Now 880 yen is cheap. It was very delicious. It seems like it's only open on Saturdays and Sundays, but is it only for reservations? You can also eat by the hearth. The atmosphere is great. A youth soccer team came to the event for the first time in three years, and groups on the bus enjoyed BBQ and karaoke. I wonder if there are many repeat customers? You can easily enjoy fishing and day camping, so it is recommended as a summer activity. Added in September. There are several chestnut trees around the washing area on the river side, and if your timing is right, you can pick up some chestnuts. Be careful as it may fall onto the tent. Added in October. This year's last camping trip on the mountain side of the tourist farm. According to the manager, it will be closed on November 6th (Japanese-style toilet construction?) Although the mountain side didn't get much sunlight, we were able to see the autumn leaves. The sky was full of beautiful stars at night. The lowest temperature was 1℃. I visited every month and experienced the changing seasons, and it was such a good campsite that I would definitely like to visit again next year.P.S. In 2023, we will be open for business from April 2nd.I visited the zoo on April 13th for the first time in 5 months. The cherry blossoms were on the verge of falling on both the mountain and river sides, but we were able to enjoy cherry blossom viewing. What used to be a Japanese-style toilet now has a pink washlet. Many campgrounds in the Doshi area open in late April or have water restrictions, but we are thankful that they are opening a little earlier. The site at the back of the mountain side has also been slightly reworked and can now be used more widely. This is a little-known spot where you can have a very pleasant camping experience. Thank you to the administrator.

I use it every summer.There are a lot of insects, but it's cool and you can play in the river, fish in the pond, and catch fish, so it's a great location for family camping.Since it is a free site, you cannot specify the location, but you can enjoy various layouts and situations.There are no baths, but there is a hot spring facility relatively nearby.

The sound of the river will soothe your soul! Ant and insect measures were a must 🫡

This is my first time here, and it's a very nice and well-maintained campsite. The toilet 🚽 also has a washlet and is fully equipped with disinfectant sheets and is clean, so women can feel safe 👌 The campsite is flat and the pegs can be easily driven in.

The campground is not large, but it is well maintained. It's close to the river, so it's easy for children to play there, but the descent to the river is a little steep, so it's best for children under elementary school age to be accompanied.The deep water can be more than chest deep even for adults, but there are also shallow waters that are safe for small children. Of course, the river is slippery, so an escort is required.There is a fishing pond, catching fish, tennis, and a restaurant.If you buy bags of burnable garbage, bottles and cans at the campsite, you don't have to take them home.There are two Western-style toilets and one Japanese-style toilet.

It's relatively emptyI came expecting to see fireflies.It's Sunday so there aren't many people.There are places where the ground is made of crushed stone.There are places where the pegs are difficult to fit.It seems to be a relatively hidden gem.I don't want to make it too public.
