Orange iron spring.Friendly staff, homemade food,This is a wonderful and relaxing inn.There are plenty of negative ions along the river, so think of the sound of the river as background music. Since the altitude is 1000M, the temperature is quite different from the outside world.

The road to the inn was a little uneasy, but the hot springs were a great way to relieve fatigue.The food was also plentiful and delicious.Because it's in the mountains, there's nothing around and there are a lot of insects, but it's a quiet and cool place that is recommended for people who want to relax.

The open-air bath is a mixed bath, but the setting is rather harsh as towel bathing is not allowed. Even though there is a time reserved for women, it is desirable for both men and women to have free time, and I sincerely hope that this will be improved.

I was surprised! Even though it was mid-March, it had rained heavily two days earlier (in Kanagawa Prefecture, though), and it was snowing here. There was a space to park our car at the entrance to Yamakami Shrine, which is about 1km down the road, and the landlady came to pick us up there in her own car, which I'm really grateful for now that I think about it! Although there was no sign of snow, there was less than 100 meters to the inn and the road was so white that one could mistake it for a ski resort. As an added bonus, the steep slopes and hairpin curves are sure to make you cry unless you have a studded 4WD!However, the atmosphere of the inn and the care of the landlady make it so comfortable that you can forget all of that, especially during the snowy season. I think it would be a good idea to go to. If you want to escape from the hustle and bustle of the worldly world, why not give it a visit?

To say the least, it's awesome☆彡It's usually a place you wouldn't be able to get to on your own, but there's a shuttle service to the station, which is very convenient and helpful. It's easier to get there than you think!As you go further and further into the mountains, you will see a beautiful snowy landscape that is truly breathtaking! After checking in, I was carefully guided through the facilities and was surprised to see that the rooms had paintings that served as curtains. What a wonderful idea! !There are plenty of drinks in the room too! There are a total of 5 types of coffee, various types of tea, and cold water in addition to the electric kettle, which is so nice! You won't have to worry about drinks at all, and there's no need to buy them from outside!The open-air bath also has a women-only time slot, so you can relax while enjoying the beautiful scenery!At night and the next morning, I went to the indoor bath, which was also comfortable. We have everything from crazing to emulsion, and the environment is beautiful!I ate dinner until I was full! The shochu was also delicious. The side dishes were so delicious that I even ordered a second helping of breakfast!The room was very warm with 2 futons (after going around to the first one, the pattern on the second one was so cute that I fell in love with it)! The bed is comfortable and you can fall asleep in seconds after lying down! It has a secluded feel due to its location, so it is recommended for those who want to enjoy a quiet and peaceful time!It's a truly wonderful inn, so much so that you'll regret leaving it behind when you return home! Until now, I had a hard time winning the lottery, but thanks to some luck, I was finally able to find a spot! I'm really glad I came to visit! I'm really disappointed that I won't be able to participate in the lottery from April (cries). The staff were kind from start to finish and it was a warm time. I would like to come again! We are rooting for you so that the lottery can be restarted! ! !

Stayed on a weekday in mid-February.We ran endlessly along the foothills until we arrived at the inn.There are no parking lot signs, so it's confusing.I parked my car there and checked in.There is only one large public bath and one bathtub.There are about 3 washrooms.There are no particular features like this.There is no sauna or cold bath, so you cannot enjoy a bath.Dinner is like vegetarian cuisine, and you won't feel satisfied. There is no main dish like this.Even though I was served seaweed rice at the end and was told that I could have free refills. .The rooms are really cold. It's cold even with the gas heater on. The best part is that unit bath type toilets do not have heated toilet seats.I use the elevator to move around the building, but it's cold and my breath comes out.Also, it's cold at night and I leave the heating on even when I go to bed, which makes my throat feel irritated. My cold got worse.I understand that it's unusual, but I want you to take good care of yourself.There are no shops or vending machines inside the building, so you will have to buy food and drinks at a convenience store.However, there is no convenience store nearby.Will not be visiting again.

The open-air bath is so pleasant that if I were to rate the hot springs alone, I would give it around 4 stars.(I think it was a good thing that I was able to enter at the wrong time with the previous customers.)but,The food was scarce and poor.I was looking forward to dinner,Even our family, who aren't big eaters, felt like we were about 5-6 minutes hungry and wished we had brought something from outside.Is this meal enough for everyone? ? ? I wonder. I was so disappointed that I didn't even take a photo of the meal.There was no menu table, and other customers at both dinner and breakfast seemed to be waiting for the timing to leave their seats (because they didn't know if it was the end or not).It was also strange that at breakfast, only the customers who were a little further away were drinking coffee.It was an inn where I only wanted to use the hot springs.
