    Nothing. It’s perfect.

    Owners are super nice and helpful. They let us stay for a few extra hours after checkout when we were waiting for our rental car.

    The hosts are the best, really helpful and kind, they helped us in 100 of different ways. We really enjoyed our stay with them, the cottage was beautiful, really nice and spacious for our group of 7 (5 adults and 2 teens). The onsen was perfect and we really enjoyed it. Definitely recommended for a wonderful experience in Kyushu.

    The cottage that we got only had two bunk-beds. No chair/sofa in the living room. A rather small bathroom.

    A charming wooden cottage with a great covered terrace. A large onsen that we booked for ourselves. A lot of birds and foxes wandering around the parking lot in the morning!

    NOTHING!!

    This is the best place I have ever stayed in OITA. The house is very nice and very cozy. It is very warm and the place is very beautiful! Even my mum and dad who do not normally say anything was very vocal how much they love the place. The owners were very helpful and very warm people too. Just a note that you cannot go here without a car because it is in the middle of the forest. But renting a car and going here was the best decision we have made for our whole Fukuoka trip!

    The owners were so friendly and nice, they knew we were looking at houses to buy and were excited to show us their beautiful kominka (old Japanese house). We asked about a laundromat in town and they let us use theirs, which was great because the other one closed before 7pm and we would've had to rush back from dinner or our onsen in Kurokawa village. We didn't cook but the kitchen in this cabin was big and perfect for longer stays and cooking meals.

    Everything was nice

    The owner was extremely nice!!! We were late for Yukata renting and I asked her for some advices. Instead she called the rental place and arranged that for us, return our Yukata the next morning when we checked out. (Normally you should return the Yukata by four pm but she talked to the rental place for us!)
