“Want to come back for longer”
Beautiful little cottage, a getaway from the business of the day. Clean warm and welcoming, selfcontained. Perfect because we had a car. Very hospitable owners.

The small house in which you sleep is a dream one! It's clean, wooden and powered by small furnice. There is electricity but you can feel as if you were living very close to the nature. Moreover, Akira and Kyoko are adorable hosts, always happy to help and support your travelling plans. They show the true hospitality spirit and make your stay there very sweet. PS: The place is so quiet, that during the night, all you can hear is the sound of snowflakes hitting the ground. Terrific.

“An enjoyable, quirky and rustic cabin in a peaceful setting and run by two lovely, friendly people.”
The location is only 5 mins drive from town but feels like you’re a world away. The owners are very friendly and helpful and good humoured. The onsen vouchers were great. The cabin is an amazing little building - a real credit to the owner who built it. It was a fun place to stay for a couple of nights. The tomatoes were delicious - thank you for sharing!

“Perfect disconnection immerse in a beautiful nature”
Separate cottage located in nature. The cottage is basic but has space, a toilet, a nice futon-bed and a wood stove, like old good times. Perfect to disconnect from work stress. The location is good, not too far from Niseko slopes (15 min by car) and other ski resorts (Rusutsu). Owners are so lovely and amazing: you will be hosted by a Japanese (old) couple, they provide breakfast on demand (chip, 1000 yen/day) and they are there to help for any needs. Tickets for local onsen (super local experience) is included! It was such a genuine experience, I can only recommend it !!! Arigatò!

The owners were very kind and picked us up from the train station at late notice as we didn't have a car. They also dropped us off in town for some food and a trip to the local onsen, for which they gave us free tickets included with the stay. The cottage was very cosy and warm, we went in January and we're almost too hot! Perfect getaway.

“Beautiful cozy cottage”
Was such a cool little hand built cottage, with amazing view of the mountain and pot belly! Very warm with the fire and has most things you need. Japanese style bed and pillow, so byo pillow if you like a fluffy one.

“I would like to come again”
Very friendly older couple :) The cabin had everything (running water, toilet, wood stove, kitchen, futon). By car close to the ski areas. I loved the experience with the wood stove during winter

“Personal, and generous stay at a spacey hut 15min drive from the slopes”
The host was incredibly generous and welcoming towards us. Drove us to the alpine centre each morning. They invited us over to a farewell drink from their sake collection. The stay felt very caring and personal, like being with family.
