Monthly Rentals in Hokujo

We shipped our ski bags and luggage, which were already inside upon arrival. The pick-up and drop off at the train station was very helpful and kind. The place is wide open inside with big rooms that can all be kings. Perfect for one family and easily doable for multiple couples or two small families. Having separate shower/toilet areas both upstairs and downstairs, helps. We loved our stay and hope to return next year.

Can’t say enough good things about Dan and his home. Super cozy and clean. Dan picked us up/dropped us at the bus stop upon arrive which made it super easy. He took us to a place to rent skis and then showed us around the mountain. He even let us build a snow cave in his yard! Epic trip!

We had a wonderful stay here! The place was virtually on the main street of Echoland without being on it which meant cafes, restaurants and shuttle buses (during winter season) pretty much at your door step. Beautiful mountain views from the place. The kitchen was the best we have used during our whole Japan trip. Utensils, plates, cups etc well stocked. They had filter coffee making capabilities (and a machine!) Showers all had in built seats (great for those not steady on your feet). We loved the jets built into the bathtub. My only trouble with the place was I had an almost 2 year old toddler and the stairs up to the place didn't have any railings on one side so she could easily fall to the ground (1.5m) and there was no door to stop her accessing the stairs, so we needed to constantly keep an eye on her. The furniture, etc felt high quality and designer (solid wood, not your average IKEA fitout). Beds comfortable. Heating g Would recommend!!

very nice little house for a family. not far by car to the ski station. equipment is good, environment is peaceful. we really enjoyed it
