The view across the river is of junk belonging to the neighbors, which is a pity. Renewing the shower could be nice

Very unique experience sleeping above the river and hearing the river flow. The staff was great.

The address/directions initially took us to the wrong home so we ended up at the wrong place (the right one was only a few driveways away). The signage for the lodging is small and close to the ground so it's difficult to spot when you're driving.

The property was peaceful. Free parking up the street was included. The beds were very comfortable and the space and shared areas were very clean and perfect for hanging out in. The host was wonderful! Close to parks, restaurants, and vineyards!

Beautiful property. we rented the villa next to the river. One of the best night’s sleep we had . Absolutely loved falling asleep and waking up to the soothing sound of water.

A little bit far from the station by walking. It's better to have a car.

I love the renovated Japanese house, friendly staffs and the peaceful environment where a small river passes by. During night time in the tiny house, I fall into sleep with the sound of the following water. Such a paradise. I wanna come again with friends in summer time!

Nothing that I did not like. But would have been a big plus if the tiny house included a simple toilet and shower option.

We stayed in a tiny house in the backyard. It was a really nice change from the regular hotels and ryokans. The owners were really nice and breakfast was delicious ✨

I liked everything about the property and my stay.

A beautiful home stay with a traditional Japanese home and two tiny cottages by a lovely stream, nestled in the foothills of sacred Fuji San. Do yourself a favor and stay here. The town’s earliest records date back 2000 years, and there is something amazing around every hairpin curve and turn. The property itself is comfortable and functional, with the upmost gracious and hospitable service.

Need to take taxi to go around neighbourhood. Or you will walk a lot. Which is nice too.

Great escape from busy city. Surrounded by grapes farm .

futons were pretty minimal, might be a little firm for those not used to it.

the location is really quaint and lovely. it was so quiet and sleeping by the creek was dreamy. breakfast was easy and the coffee was good. owners are delightful and really helpful. were happy to find us a local place for dinner (there are a bunch of options).

Bathroom is a little small. Far from the train station.

Relaxing get away. Low-key and chilled in a beautiful modern cabin. Fruit Park with excellent views are close by.

If you don't have a car you need to use a taxi to get to the nearest bus stop or train station.

Very nicely designed hotel, and super helpful and friendly staff! The surrounding nature is beautiful.

It was a really comfortable stay in a beautiful, traditional Japanese house. The breakfast is delicious, so is the coffee and grape juice! 🍇 The host was exceptional - very accommodating and friendly.

Not very convenient for people who don’t drive.

It’s an amazingly welcoming and warm place, literally make us feel like home. Very stylish and cozy, can tell the owner has really good taste and the employee was super helpful and hostile. We stay at the mini house this time, would say the view might be for blooming season or autumn, but still very relaxing to sleep next to the river and among trees. Recommend for groups or family travelers, many facilities to enjoy a traditional Japanese residence and fun and peaceful environment. Close to local cafes, restaurant, onsens.

super friendly, excellent breakfast

Super nice people work there. Like a lot of people said already breakfast is delicious, I looked forward to it every day!

There are three bedrooms ( Two bedrooms with tatami floor, and one bungalow) in the house. If your group consists of more than three persons, I strongly recommend requesting bedrooms in the house, not the bungalow.

Enjoyed the good atmosphere in a traditional folk house after strolling in an old local community. You will imagine how Japanese farmars lived in rural areas several decades ago. I strongly recommend you should try a breakfast plate with extra charge if you are not a vegetarian.

Exceptional place in a very particular area. Especially if you are interested in Japanese architecture the renovated old house will delight and inspire you. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious. WiFi, BBQ, Terrace ... overall a very memorable experience. We will come back!

The communal bath & shower left a bit to be desired

The lobby area which doubles as a general hang-out space was fun.

Stayed in August 2021

Staff were extremely good. They gave us directions and a list of great restaurants and onsens in the area. We were travelling with our cat and the staff were extremely accommodating. We will go back there if we ever go to Yamanashi again.
