    It was very comfortable and cozy. Service was excellent and was situated in front of the lake Nojiri, so the view in the morning was beautiful. Breakfast was served well and quick, thanks to the host (Chris) for the hospitality.

    Couldn’t recommend this spot highly enough. The staff were legends. Couldn’t do enough for you. We were lucky we had the place to ourselves but wouldn’t have mattered anyway. Got access to paddle boards owned by the hotel, location was right on...
