This is a lodging with only seven rooms, converted from a 108-year-old elementary school located in Akiyamago, a hidden natural paradise spanning Niigata and Nagano Prefectures. The cuisine, which creatively uses seasonal mountain delicacies like spring wild vegetables and autumn mushrooms as well as locally sourced ingredients, is very popular. The former gymnasium features a giant sugoroku board game, which is an artwork from the 'Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale' held in the region. Using the entire gymnasium, the enormous sugoroku game provides enjoyable content for both adults and children. The lodging serves Japanese-style creative cuisine abundantly incorporating mountain vegetables and other fresh produce. Care is taken to create dishes that balance flavor, presentation, and nutrition, allowing guests to savor the natural taste of the ingredients. The dining tables are adorned with seasonal wildflowers picked from the surrounding mountains, and heartfelt hospitality is offered to ensure guests enjoy their precious meals. An elementary school that has continued to watch over many children in the 'Hidden Region of Akiyama-go.' We hope you enjoy your stay while feeling the memories of such a school.
During the winter season, the prime location directly connected to the Ishigakiyama Ski Resort slopes is very popular. One unique feature is that you can ski right up to the accommodation when returning. For small children, they can play in the snow right in front of the lodging, making it perfect for their first experience on the slopes, with the option to take breaks at the accommodation. During the winter season, it is room only, but the hall operates as a dining area with an à la carte system, allowing you to choose meals from a diverse menu. (You are also free to bring your own food or dine out.) In the green season, it serves as a base for nature experiences in Minamiuonuma. Popular plans include spring mountain vegetable picking, summer river play, insect collecting, and mountain climbing. For fishing, it is a famous lodge for anglers on the Uono River. (In the green season, stays include two meals.)
