Some info has been automatically translated.
You will stay in two rooms of an old farmhouse, like a homestay. The living room, dining room, and shower room are shared with the owner and other groups. If you want to book two rooms, please book both listings 1 and 2.
If you want to sleep in the morning, please choose 2, which is quiet and does not get morning sunlight. For those staying with 2 or more people, we recommend 2, which is a little wider and has a veranda.
Towels and bath towels are available for free.
If you are interested in moving to the countryside or using an old house, why not come and experience it first?
A host who moved from Tokyo to Misato-cho in northern Akita Prefecture will tell you the good and bad things about rural life without hesitation.
People who want to stay in a house with a large Buddhist altar and a memorial.
People who like wild vegetables, wild grasses, wild birds, fishing, mountains, local events, and DIY. How about hanging out together?
If they are well-behaved, large dogs such as Akita dogs are also allowed to stay on the veranda.
Please ask me in advance.

The space
The accommodation is a Japanese-style room with 8 tatami mats and a futon set.
The capacity is 3 people, but please don't hesitate to use it if you're alone. You will not be sharing a room with other guests.
Rest comfortably in the middle of the 8 tatami mat room.
Meals are not available because it is a private lodging. Please use the restaurants, supermarkets, and convenience stores near the Kotoka Moritake Interchange.
The kitchen and dining area, including the stove and condiments, are available for free.
You can buy drinks, etc., and put them in the refrigerator.

The bath is not very user-friendly as it cannot be re-lit.
Please use the nearby hot spring facility if you like.

Yunokoshi-no-Yado: 12 minutes by car. The faintly scented sulfur spring is very comfortable, and the hot spring facility has a good reputation for its flowing waters from the source spring.

Moridake Onsen is a 20-minute drive. It is a unique hot spring that gushed out during oil exploration. It seems that the salt concentration is the highest in Japan. You can also stop by and use the town facility "Yuparu" and "Moridake Onsen Ryokan".

Guest access
The living room, kitchen, dining room, bath and toilet are shared.
There is only one TV in the living room.
Please share it with others.

During your stay
The walking course to the shrine in the Aze Road and district is popular. We will show you the way.

Other things to note
If you come by train, we will only pick you up from the nearest Kadostation.
Suica cannot be used at Kadostation. Please buy a ticket and take the train.
The travel pass is fine.
There are no tourist facilities or shops near my house. It is possible to stop by a supermarket or convenience store when picking you up.
