Vacation rentals with lake access in Tochigi

I stayed at Sunada's place in Aozora Stay for 7 weeks, and it was lovely! The beautiful, peaceful nature all around is perfect for walking and enjoying the song of the birds. From the winter snowflakes and the unique Yoshi-yaki in early March (= controlled reed-burning in Fujioka), to the first flowering cherry blossoms — every day brought something wonderful again. What really makes this place special is Sunada itself. His good care, enthusiastic energy and warm personality make Aozora Stay a hidden gem. We also visited nice and tasty restaurants together. And with every day, the stay only got better, partly thanks to the nice encounters with other guests. A place to remember! I'm already looking forward to next time in Aozora Stay. 🩵💙🈳🙏🏼

The host is very friendly and has an amazing English, which helps a lot for communication. It is a true experience of Japan's countryside and literally minutes from an amazing promenade across the local landscapes. If I ever go in that region again, I will book there for sure. One must be careful when booking at Sunada-san place to plan their travel to there early, especially if they have wheeled luggage, because it is a remote place and the bus does not pass after a certain hour. Also, I recommend to bring your own food, because there is only a few places at walking distance where you can get some. Overall, this place is very charming both at the house and in the near environment. A must do? Go to Watarase no Sato Onsen which is at walking distance and enjoy the warm baths and delicious food!

Amazing spot! Beautiful home in a great location if you’re looking for a peaceful quiet getaway! Sunada is the friendliest host i have ever had, He goes out of his way to make sure you’re happy and enjoying your stay. Highest of recommendation!!

It was updated from last year's use and made it easier to spend time! It is especially recommended for those who want to spend time in nature.

Staying at Sunada was one of the best experiences I have had in Japan. The house is friendly, you meet people from all over the world. And Sunada takes us to discover good restaurants when he's not the one having a barbecue! Recommended if you want to experience the Japanese countryside!

We had a great experience staying at the house. there was more than enough room and there were heaters for the cold. There are not many restaurant nearby, but we didn't mind! it's a good place if you are in Nikko for hiking or visiting shrines since there is a bus stop nearby.

Initially, i had accidentally booked for one guest but Sunada was quick to help our situation as set us up in a private. We also got driven to the supermarket free of charge thanks to his kindness! The house is very clean, the rooms are cozy with great views all around and the common area creates for a super social area if you’re up for it. The area the house is in is filled with lush flora which makes it great to take strolls or creating a good vibe for running or any type of exercise. Lastly, Sunada was a great host and i would recommend this place to stay at as i would come back again!

After spending a month at StayAozora in Fujioka, Tochigi, I can honestly say it was one of the best Airbnb experiences I have had. Nestled in the countryside, it is peaceful and quiet, so a good choice if you want to relax around nature. From the first day I arrived, Sunada was incredibly welcoming and made me feel at home. I took a private room because I had to work in the mornings, so it was a comfortable choice at an affordable price. During the day, I often also went for runs/walks around the area and saw many animals. Sunada gave me many recommendations about the area, including delicious restaurants where I was able to eat yakiniku and udon. One thing I admired was that he was always open to suggestions and actively worked on projects to improve the quality and aesthetic of his home. He is one of a kind! If you want to make memories with new people and learn more about this beautiful country of Japan from a friendly native like Sunada, then StayAozora is for you!
