"Secret Place to Stay, Kototokisu, with a Suspension Bridge, Sauna & Bonfire"

Kototokisu is a hidden inn nestled in the mountains of Shizuoka City, limited to one group per day. The name "Kototokisu" comes from the sound of the bird "hototogisu", which announces the arrival of summer. In an era where people value "things" more than "people", it was born as a place to provide "people" and "time" where you can feel the calm flow and time and spend time to your heart's content. It is a place where you can experience a peaceful time and precious "time" in the quiet nature. Crossing the 65-meter suspension bridge, you will find an extraordinary space that feels like you have stepped into another world. A special time away from everyday life awaits you, surrounded by the babbling of the river and the greenery of the trees. The facility is equipped with a private sauna to refresh your mind and body while feeling the nature. At night, you can enjoy a quiet moment while looking up at the starry sky around the campfire. At the BBQ, you can enjoy a full-fledged BBQ with your own ingredients, and the kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering. It can accommodate up to 6 people, so you can spend a special time with your family and friends. Enjoy a luxurious accommodation experience that can only be enjoyed here, surrounded by silence and nature at "Kototokisu".
