Sehr gutes Angebot an tiefgefrorenen Mahlzeiten und Beilagen, sowie Getränke im Haus! Kein Problem, wenn man ohne Proviant kommt! Freundlicher, unkomplizierter ‚staff‘!

Spacious, peaceful and surrounded by nature. The place comfortably sleeps 6 adults and is clean and very well kept. The kitchen is also well equipped, which was really useful for our family. It’s right by a lovely stream, and you can hear the water flowing — very relaxing! There’s plenty of outdoor space for the kids to run around and play. We stayed here as a base for visiting Shinhotaka Ropeway and Kamikochi, and the location worked very well for us. It’s very quiet and really feels like a stay in nature. There’s one bathroom and one toilet, which was manageable for us. Food options nearby were quite limited during our stay, so it’s worth planning ahead or getting groceries. A lovely choice if you’re looking for a clean, spacious and peaceful stay close to nature.

Place as described, location perfect to explore Norikura and area around it. Big apartment, enough space for a family (3 kids). Really a nice place and surroundings. Kids could also play around the house. There are just 2 apartments in the house and this former lodge is quite big so it's also very private even if somebody using another place. Bring cash to Norikura Kogen as the only ATM there is not accepting foreigner cards. Bus stop is 100m from the house if needed. 3 easy/medium hikes starts 100m from the house as well. As the place is at almost 1500m high in the mountains it is much cooler then most of Japan in August (so instead of usual 35C temp there it is 25C max).

It was exactly as advertised The host was super nice and very helpful. Our car was snowed in and he went well above and beyond to help us get out

The bed was very uncomfortable. There was a stink bug in the room
