    The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Our accommodation included a private onsen which allowed us to bathe after our children had gone to sleep. But there was also a public open air onsen too. The children loved the little Kurokawa onsen face towel left for them. A short drive from Kurokawa town perfect for travellers with a rental car and affordable if the guesthouses in Kurokawa town are out of your budget. Our kitchen had a kettle, gas stove, microwave and I think a rice cooker. Wish we could have stayed longer!

    Nice accommodation near Kurokawa with private onsen
    • Leisure trip

    • Holiday Home with Open Air Bath (Kiri)

    The mini kitchen was extremely small and barely enough for one person. The shower was outdoor next to the onsen, and for folks like us from the tropics, showering in 5 DegC windy condition was tough.

    The rustic villa was clean and comfortable with the bonus of a private onsen. The bedroom with futon beds was at the 2nd storey while the ground floor was the living room, a small kitchen and a patio. While it was freezing cold outside when we were there, it was warm and cozy inside. The location was a short drive from Kurokawa hence was a good alternative for bigger groups looking for budget accommodation nearby. We almost could not make it to the accommodation due to error in the Google map which directed us to a closed road. We were desperate as it was very close to 6 o'clock, the latest check-in time. We resorted to calling the host in our broken Japanese and thankfully, the kind lady at the reception came to our rescue and led us in via a new road which was not shown in Google map.

    We loved our short stay here. The private onsen was perfect after long days hiking and travelling. The cabin had a terrace with a table you could grill on and we rented a bbq and wagyu beef set from them which was delicious. The staff were so kind and friendly. Would recommend staying here!

    - The bedroom is upstairs - steep uphill to the site - old cabin/house - unstaff in the evening

    - has a breathtaking view - able to cook and bbq on the balcony - the kitchen has everything we need - friendly staff. They have cranked up the air con to pre-heat the house for us. - it is a camp site not a 5 star hotel so please adjust your expectation - onsen water is hot..hot...hot - tap water has an "onsen" taste but this is what expected. - tatami bed (like in Doraemon, U need to do your bed at night and in the morning) - tranquility in the morning

    The location is a bit out of the way so access to restaurants and such is limited (of course there's nothing the hosts could do about that ;) ) we ended up driving to Minamioguni and Oguni for dinner our two nights.

    EXCELLENT value for money. Complete detached building with its own private onsen bathhouse. Relatively large fridge, availability of microwave and toaster oven in addition to a kettle. Very quiet location. Good quality wifi.
