Information

For Walking Pilgrims (Ohenro-san)

We are happy to store your backpack before check-in, if requested.

For guests not staying with us, backpack storage is available at ¥100 per hour.

To ensure we can assist you, **please contact us by email at least one day in advance.** This is crucial as I manage everything alone.**

I may be temporarily out for errands like grocery shopping, so without prior notice, we may unfortunately not be able to fulfill your request.

For Pilgrims Camping Outdoors

For those who can present identification, you are welcome to set up your own tent or unroll your sleeping bag in our unused hall for overnight stays.

While there is no charge for staying in the hall, a donation is required for its use. Showers and washing machines in the guest room area are available for a fee.

If you wish to camp in the hall, please contact us by email at least one day in advance.

Unfortunately, we may not be able to accommodate your request without prior notice.

Reward yourself with a restful break: Settle in for a leisurely multi-night stay based in Yasuda Town.

Of course, single-night stays are also very welcome!

Enjoy the Hot Springs

Relax and rejuvenate at the hot springs the next day.

Please note: Guests with tattoos may be refused entry to public baths/hot springs in Japan.

Journey to Monet's Garden via Public Transport

Take a bus or train to Monet's Garden on your next day.
