I visited for the first time during the intense heat of late July 2024.The site was a slightly larger site that was created this year, and it was large enough for two sites.The ground is gravel and seems to have good drainage.There are no trees in the middle of the Daiichi Auto Site, but there are trees above the site, providing shade even in the hot summer.The Otake River flows right in front of here, and this is the main area in the summer.Even though it's right in front of you, it's at the end of a road where there aren't many cars, so it takes 1.2 minutes to walk down the stone steps and arrive at the riverbank.The water in the river is cool even in the middle of summer and feels very nice.It's natural water from the Southern Alps, so it's very clear and clean.There is shallow water where small children can play, and you can also ride the current with a float.My child is in 1st grade, but he wore a life jacket.The other children around him also wore more than half of the jackets.He played for nearly 2 hours on both days, exhausted.I was wearing a rash guard, but my face and calves were sunburned, so be careful.The toilets and kitchen area on the site are kept clean and always clean. The water in the kitchen is natural water, so I drank a lot of it.The staff is maintaining the gravel at the site I checked out, and I think they have a high level of hospitality.You can also play with handheld fireworks at night.There are two day-trip hot springs nearby, and you can get discount coupons for both at the administration building.We went there over two days, and both can be reached in about 10 minutes.It's hot during the day even at an altitude of 780m (3°C lower than the Ojiro campsite), but in the evening it gets cooler and a pleasant breeze blows.It was chilly, dropping to 22 degrees Celsius during the night.When I looked at the night sky, I saw countless stars that I couldn't see in the city.The air was nice.To buy ingredients, before coming to the campsite, go shopping at the Big Store near the Nirasaki Interchange, and for additional ingredients, go to the roadside station and the supermarket next to it.This campsite is easy to use and can be used as a second site, bungalows, or a dedicated group camping site.My child also really liked it and wants to come again.It was a campsite that will make your summer memories memorable.
