Homestays in Yamanakako

This turned out to be a pleasant surprise. We arrived at midnight, and it was so dark we couldn't see the tiny 'P' sign for the campsite. We ended up parking at the bank's lot just ahead and dragging our luggage over, and my hands were freezing. Later, I realized the camp hotel had sent me a map with the location and room code – all that suffering for nothing! Luckily, the room was exceptionally clean, with a gas stove, microwave, and BBQ grill all fully equipped and neatly organized, ready for us to use. What was truly a special surprise was that the host had even pre-filled the bathtub with water for our arrival. The next morning, when I stepped outside for a walk, I discovered Mount Fuji right behind us – it was absolutely amazing! Many thanks to the host for providing us with such a wonderful experience. Driving to Oshino Hakkai the next day only took about fifteen minutes.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Villa Fuji Yamanakako. The view is truly 10/10 — we could see Mount Fuji directly from the villa, and waking up to such a breathtaking scenery every morning was an unforgettable experience. The location is perfect, with Lake Yamanakako just a 1-minute walking distance, making it very convenient for morning walks and enjoying the peaceful lakeside atmosphere. The villa itself was very comfortable, clean, and well-equipped. One of the highlights was the fully furnished kitchen — there were plenty of utensils, plates, pots, and cooking tools available, which allowed us to prepare and enjoy our own breakfast easily. It really felt like a home away from home. The environment was quiet, relaxing, and ideal for anyone looking to escape the busy city and enjoy nature, especially with the stunning view of Mount Fuji right in front of you. Everything was thoughtfully prepared, and our stay was smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. We highly recommend Villa Fuji Yamanakako to anyone visiting the Fuji area. It is a perfect place for families, couples, or friends who want a comfortable stay with an incredible view. We would definitely love to come back again in the future!

Had a wonderful and refreshing stay at SANU 2nd Home Yamanakako 1st. True to its “2nd Home” concept, the entire experience felt peaceful, comfortable, and relaxing — like having your own private retreat surrounded by nature. The cabin is beautifully set within a natural environment, with stunning mountain landscapes and a calm atmosphere that allows you to fully unwind from busy city life. Waking up to the fresh air and scenic views was one of the highlights of the stay. The space was cozy, well designed, and perfect for slowing down and reconnecting with nature. I would recommend arriving and checking in before the sky gets dark, as the natural surroundings make it easier and more enjoyable to settle in while there is still daylight. Overall, it was a unique and memorable stay. Perfect for anyone looking for a quiet escape and a chance to experience nature in comfort. Would love to return again.

I stayed in a room with a view of Mt. Fuji. Around 6am, I was able to see a beautiful view of Lake Yamanaka after walking for about 5 minutes from the pension. This pension is run by a husband and wife team and offers a relaxing atmosphere with a homely atmosphere. The room itself is a sleeping environment with only minimal amenities. There are hand towels, but I didn't see any bath towels, so please bring your own if you need one. If you want to eat a convenience store bento or other meal, you can rent a table in the dining room on the first floor, so you don't have to worry about it. Microwave, water, boiling water, refrigerator, toilet, and washroom are shared. You can take a bath until 11 o'clock. It was cheap so the cost performance is good. I would like to use it again if I have a chance to go nearby.

Admittedly, the facilities are quite old, so while the hygiene is acceptable, it can't compare to a standard hotel. However, the location is absolutely superb. The old gentleman running the place is very kind and even recommended local eateries and bike shops. For this price point, it's an ideal choice, and I'd definitely stay here again if the price remains the same.

It is cooler than Tokyo and Kyoto. It is 39 degrees over there. The highest here is only 28 degrees. It is very cool. The cold water is bitterly cold. It is like snow water. This hotel does not have air conditioning. When the local temperature exceeds 28 degrees, choose carefully. It is estimated that the probability is not large. There is a staff member throughout the whole process. He is in the morning and evening. The people are very good. Our breakfast is also included. He also made it. The toast is very crisp and it is more warm and delicious than other hotel breakfasts. The environment is very good, personally like it, there is a kitchen, refrigerator, suitable for a few more days on vacation. Go out and walk for 10 minutes to walk to the lake to shoot Mount Fuji. I also encountered a small 🦌 on the road. It was very cute and there should be many animals nearby. It's dark at night, don't go around.

I stayed here during a festival. The walk to the venue is a bit far, but it's along the lake, so it's not a big deal. However, the steep slope after turning from the lake to the accommodation was quite a steep climb... (I saw a deer in the morning.) The room was very clean and nice. The bed was very comfortable. Amenities included bath towels, disposable face towels, shampoo, conditioner, body soap, toothbrush, hair dryer, kettle, and water. The only mirror was in the bathroom, so it would have been nice to have a tabletop mirror. I'd definitely stay here again!

別荘を宿泊施設にしたような宿でした。新しくはなかったですが、綺麗に清掃はされていました。部屋が3つしかありませんが、1階のリビングやダイニングなどがとても広かったです。キッチンにはなんでも揃っていました。ポットにお湯も沸かしてありました。大きな冷蔵庫がありました。物が入ってないので野菜室と冷凍室の区別がつきませんでした。 建物と部屋に入るには、宿泊直前に来た番号入力すると入れます。携帯を忘れて部屋の外に出てしまうと番号がわからず入れなくなる可能性があります。 203号室に泊まりました。真夏でも涼しくて使いませんでしたがエアコン付いてました。使い捨ての小さいタオルと綿のバスタオルと歯ブラシがありました。部屋着はありません。 家の中は外ばき禁止です。スリッパが玄関に用意されてます。 山中湖から少し登った所にあり、とても静かで森の中の感じです。夜到着すると、場所もわかりづらく怖いかもしれません。 私が宿泊した日は他に宿泊者もなく、受付の人などもいませんので大きな家に1人でした。

From the room, you can see Mount Fuji. It is very fast to go to the shore of Hirano. If you want to see the morning sunshine in Jinshan, you can open the curtains to see the clarity of Mount Fuji today and then decide whether to go downstairs. There is a private bathroom in the room. The room is large and the hotel is not new overall. You have to carry your luggage upstairs without elevator. It takes7-8 minutes to drag your luggage from Hirano bus station to the hotel.
