It's been a few years since I visited you.Even though it had been several years since we met, they remembered many things and were very friendly with both the couple.Kazenoki-san's food is simply delicious! It's safe to say that I'm doing it for this reason. I was very impressed when I first visited and have become a fan ever since. I really want to go more... I'll bother you again!

This is a pension that I use when having drinks with friends from far away.The food is delicious and the couple provides kind and courteous customer service, so I always feel good when I come here.It's been a while since I last visited, but I was able to enjoy his same personality and food, and I had a great time.

2024.9This is my 6th repeat visit since last September 😊 I was healed once again ✨ The food cooked by the wife is really healthy and delicious, and the husband's witty jokes? The story brought a smile to my face, and in the morning I saw many wild birds visiting the deck (redfinch, nuthatch, great tit, parrot tit), and on my morning walk around the neighborhood I saw birds (daurian flycatchers, black-cockaded woodpecker, black-bellied woodpecker, white wagtail, black-tailed wagtail) and the beauty of the mountains. (Mt. Fuji, Mt. Kaikomagatake, Mt. Yatsugatake) 🤗 I will visit you next month 😀 Thank you very much 💞 Also, the master's work, the bird chopstick rest, is cute, and it is wonderful that it is drawn with its characteristics. I ended up buying up a lot 😁 Last time I bought 4, this time I bought 17 🌝2023.12.25I've been following Kazenoki's Instagram for a long time, and I've always wanted to stay there someday😆And when I finally went there for the first time in mid-September, it was already cozy and delicious, and I'll be there in December. This is my second time as a repeat visitor😌💓It's a paradise with so many birds coming to the garden🐦twice in December! Yesterday from around 8:00 am to around 10:00 am, I saw 17 male and female Japanese stonefinch, parrot tit, nuthatch, great tit, black-breasted cockatoo, black-tailed tit, white-eye, white-eye, black-bellied woodpecker, black-capped tit, black-tailed tit, white-bellied woodpecker, turtle dove, brown-eared bulbul, sparrow, and russet. Various types of birds have arrived! Also, two cute mainland squirrels came😆💓It's amazing😆By the way, last time we saw a red-headed woodpecker (female), a black-spotted woodpecker, a thrush, and a warbler? too. In September, it's a female Fied flycatcher. Then, I heard the wonderful story of how Pension Kaze Toki became an inn where birds come, and I was soothed by the many birds that visit, and by the panoramic hot springs with a view of Mt. Fuji near the pension! I'll be going again 😆💓 Thank you very much for your help this year 🙇 I hope to see you again next year 🙇🐦💓 Happy New Year to the owner and his wife ✨2023.9It's close to a hot spring with a view of Mt. Fuji and close to the station, so you can come by train if you need it. The couple at the pension are friendly and easy to talk to. The owner is funny, and his wife is a good cook, so you can enjoy healthy meals. And it's a wonderful pension where you can see lots of wild birds from the living room 😌💓

I found out about it on Instagram. The comment section is always crowded, but my wish came true and I was able to stay at the end of March, during the off-season, before the cherry blossoms bloomed.During breakfast, you'll be treated to a paradise of wild birds that come to the deck to feed and play, a feast for the eyes and an exciting sight for bird lovers. This kind of special feeling may be unique.I couldn't take good pictures with my old smartphone's garbage camera, so I gave up on taking pictures, but wild birds kept appearing one after another, just like small flowers blooming!The building looks quite old, but the rooms are clean and comfortable.Both dinner and breakfast were delicious. It was a perfect marriage of home-cooked food and elaborate dining out, and the portions were just right.It was a time when there was still a difference in temperature, so on a cold night, I enjoyed roasting marshmallows in the fireplace with a roaring flame. This is quite difficult.It had a homely atmosphere that you don't find in hotels, and it reminded me of old family trips.

This is a place where the warm personalities of the couple come out.After my gastrointestinal surgery, the couple listened to my selfish requests regarding meals, and they were very considerate of me during the meal. The meal itself is full of hearty, delicious food that is gentle on the body, so please enjoy it to the fullest.I've always wanted to go there someday because I saw the wild bird Instagram posts so cute, so I'm really glad I took the plunge and visited. Although I am still battling my illness, I would like to go see the cute wild birds and the wonderful couple again.

I'm a wild bird lover and found out about this pension through Instagram.The location is close to Kai-Oizumi Station, making it easy to access by car or train, and the surroundings are quiet and relaxing.Thanks to the warm hospitality of the owner and his wife, the food is very comforting, with very delicious flavors and just the right amount.The owner's stories during the meal are full of humor and make for an enjoyable experience. In the morning, you can enjoy a meal with wild birds.The rooms are spacious, well-maintained, and relaxing.They provide electronic blankets even in winter, and you can stay comfortable even in midsummer without air conditioning.It is recommended to wake up early and take a walk before breakfast.I would like to continue to use your services at least once every year.(postscript)There was no heavy rain on the way home, and I was able to get home without being affected by the typhoon.There weren't many wild birds that I could see depending on the season, but I was able to see many different kinds of birds, and this trip was once again a great memory.

A quiet pension where small birds come to feed and bathe. A delicious and simple course meal. A friendly owner and his wife with no frills.I stayed at many pensions in the Kiyosato area, but finally settled on this one. This is a regular lodging.
