Pleasant!

I stayed here and got in contact with the staff - communication was super! Very nice and they tried to accommodate me. The area is exceptional, lakefront and very silent, be careful though, a car is really nice to have since there is not a lot in the area like restaurants.

The room was a little bit smelly when i arrived, i had the window open for a very long time, but didn’t really got hold of it for the time of my stay. The futon is very small, so sleeping is rather hard. The room was a bit dusty - something i didn’t like for the price. The kitchen was a mess when i arrived, maybe because of other travelers. My room didn’t face Mt. Fuji directly - not a big problem for me since you can always go outside. But also be aware there are others sharing your space, like kitchen and restroom - you can hear everything, and my fellow travellers weren’t very silent. :(

A beautiful stay next to Fujisan

The view from the Mountain View room is INCREDIBLE 😍 We were right on the water front and even got to borrow some paddle boards for the morning. The room was clean and the whole guest house is beautiful. A truly unforgettable stay.

The WiFi doesn’t work in the Mountain View room, and the bikes that are mentioned in other reviews are NOT available to borrow. They cost £10 each for 3 hours to rent nearby.

Impressive trip!!

Very clean, warm and traditional Japanese style room. The host was super friendly and knew English which was really helpful. The perfect view to see Mountain Fuji just outside the Guest house zen. Hoping we can visit there soon.

Zen experience

We were looking for a good location to hopefully see mount Fuji and this is perfect! Can't ever guarantee the view but we lucked out. In any case it is a beautiful place on the lake and less busy than other areas.

Nothing!

剛開始入住導航到的位置有點模糊後來有找到，老闆也很好心有留言給我跟停車資訊（但我後來才看到，哈哈），整個很喜歡這個特色民宿，外頭可以跟伴侶一起還湖漫步跟騎腳踏車，看著窗外的富士山很悠閒的感覺。

沒有早餐需自行準備，但後面有小廚房可以使用，雖然我沒有使用，但如果可以自己跟旅伴一起準備可以更棒，我們是早餐到附近餐廳吃餐點解決，窗外的風景景色很美美到不像話，但是靠近湖旁是蠻冷的，建議穿發熱衣睡覺，房間也很有特色蠻乾淨的也香香的，下次一定還要回來入住。

蠻冷的還好有烘被機器，可以讓被子溫暖不至於晚上失溫，浴室只有一間出來時有小台的暖爐，但不至於可以超溫暖但是足夠的，其他設備都很滿意。

屋主非常貼心，尚未抵達時已經幫忙開啟暖氣、暖被機，讓我們抵達時，房間、棉被已經熱呼呼。窗戶打開即可欣賞山中湖與富士山⋯湖景山景一次全包。

地點極佳，開窗即可看到富士山與山中湖。屋主非常客氣。

A wonderful spot for a traditional experience, boasting scenic views of Mt. Fuji.

The setting of the place was remarkable, situated right across from Mt Fuji. Fortunately, during my two-day stay, the weather was clear, allowing for unobstructed views of the mountain. The room, ideally sized for a couple, featured a wardrobe for storing our luggage. The pillows were exceptionally comfortable, and the room maintained a cozy warmth, thanks to the air conditioners and bed warmers.

The futon was somewhat thin, leading to a bit of discomfort after sleeping on it, which is expected for those unaccustomed to it. Dining options were limited on this side of the lake, resulting in us having dinner from 7/11 on both nights.

It was Fantastic

First, I think this is the first Accomadation that provides a Futon dryer to make the bed warm for the guest to sleep well, Secondly, I requested the Owner for some local recommendation places to visit since this was the only day where my itinerary is surrounded on this Accomdation and The owner recommended some nice places. Cycling around the area was Tons of fun too. 120% will come back again along with my friends if possible.

If there was a TV, that would have been perfection. But everything else is Top Notch. Wish i could stay there for 2 Nights or more instead of 1 night .

今年第二次入住然，還是非常喜歡！面湖房間景觀很讚，房間有暖氣、烘被機也不怕冷到。老闆的英文非常好，不用擔心溝通的問題。喜歡鄉下氛圍的真的很推薦這裡！一定會再回訪！

木造的老房子加上榻榻米超舒適！

Absolutely! I had the most wonderful experience staying at this charming boutique stay home in Japan. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the cozy ambiance and attention to detail.

Beautifully presented room with tatami and such a warm and cosy futon. The guest house is ideally located on the prettiest side of Lake Yamanaka, and I could see Mount Fuji out of my window. In the early morning it was reflected in the lake as the mist rose off the water, and the view was magical. Staying here was a special experience.

A place that will show you what life really should be all about

This is that rare gem you’re looking for. Probably a once in a lifetime experience. The room feels authentic, is comfy and cozy. It has a big closet to stow away all your luggage to keep the room as aesthetic as it is. The view is breathtaking, mesmerising and iconic above all. The host is unbelievably friendly, generous and speaks English very well. If hospitality would be a form of art this host would be a master.

The only downside is the moment one has to leave again. Unforgettable experiences are hard to part from…

It will be your best stay in Japan

The place is simply amazing. It's a traditional Japanese house with cozy tatami rooms. My room had an amazing view of Fuji. I just look out and see it all! I don't think it can get better than that. And you get out of the hotel and you're on the beach! The owner is very sweet guy too. Highly recommended! Just beware of the buses, it's a village so they are not that frequent.

it was amazing
