I stayed here on the way back from hiking the Asahi Mountain Range. The personality of the kind landlady is wonderful.The other customer I happened to be with was a repeat customer, and from what I heard, he was quite a foodie. This dish was really delicious and even foodies would be satisfied. Since it was autumn, we were served seasonal mushrooms, wild maitake and oyster mushrooms, and fresh rice from Yukiwakamaru (mushrooms aren't always available, so I think it's a matter of luck). Akebi, river fish, and butterbur are also available. It is a delicious dish that is rich in flavor.The surrounding area is quiet. For the bath, I went to a hot spring facility about 5 minutes walk away.It was a really memorable time. This is an inn that I would like to recommend to many people. I'll visit you again.

This is my favorite inn.The food is delicious, the facility is clean and friendly.I think it's very good for people who like mushrooms and wild vegetables.Not suitable for: People who want to eat meat-based dishes, people who want a TV in their room.

There will be more wild vegetable dishes than you can eat. Anyway, the bamboo shoot tempura is the best.

The sukiyaki made with natural maitake mushrooms, miso soup, and rice were delicious, as were the sweetfish, simmered dishes, and soba noodles. You can listen to local information, the futons are fluffy, and the guesthouse is the best.

We stayed here on September 10th with 5 adults and 2 children after climbing Mt. Gassan.From the time I made my reservation, I was treated with great care and felt at ease.It was the day of the fire walking at Yudonoyama Shrine that was held nearby, so I was only able to see the Shinto ritual.To take a bath, get a discount coupon for a nearby hot spring.The meal I was looking forward to was filled with elaborate wild vegetable dishes and country dishes, and I could barely finish them all.The main course, salt-grilled rockfish, was a natural rockfish caught by the host.At the end, I was very satisfied with the homemade dessert.This time, I was able to stay at Nishikawa Town's Gassan Koreyoro campaign at a great deal, and I'm sorry for the low price.I would also like to come here for fishing and mountain climbing.A very kind landlady will welcome you. Please feel free to use it.

There was no TV, and the indoor bath was closed, so I received a 50 yen discount coupon for a municipal hot spring 500 meters away.

The rooms and toilets are well-cleaned, and the dinner includes a lot of rare wild vegetables. The night we stayed there, we even had a 41cm salt-grilled char caught by the landlady's older brother! …

This is a cozy guesthouse in Oizawa, at the foot of Mt. Gassan 👍 The food made with wild vegetables was amazing ❗It was my first time to eat so many wild vegetables, and I was impressed by the various ways to prepare them 😄😄😄The bamboo shoot rice was especially delicious 👍 It's a popular high N/C rate ingredient, so it's perfect for people on a diet 😊The landlady explained about the wild vegetables, but I couldn't remember them all...😅 I was surprised at the depth of the wild vegetables and the amount of effort involved in cooking them😳😳😳I've been wanting to try eating wild vegetables every season 😄The rooms, toilets, and dining room were clean and perfect for preventing the spread of the new coronavirus 👍There is also a hot spring facility within a 5 minute walk where you can relax.
