Basic but convenient hut

This is quite a basic hut, but fine if you are in backpacking or camping mode. Upside is that it's close to the watarase onsen which was lovely, and a short bus drive from ukegawa trail head. Note that the check in is at the public bath next door,

This was a cabin with dining and kitchen area on one side and a sleeping area with tatami mats and futons in the other. The kitchen has all you need to make a meall but we didn’t bring any food with us. We only stayed one night but would come back and stay. There is a toilet in the room and went to the public onsen to bathe. The chicken yakatori place down the road is a must.

The profile page says that this cottage has shower. But, actually not. They only have a public hot spring where you have to shower with others without any privacy. And the cottage don’t have bed. It’s Japanese traditional style of tatami

観光拠点に便利で快適

熊野本宮に近く、観光に便利です。 スタッフの方が親切で、安心して施設を利用できました。 コテージは新しくはないものの、清潔に保たれており、寝具含め問題なしでした。 調理器具も一通り揃っており、気楽に自炊を楽しめます。(最新の炊飯器も無料で貸してもらえました) 温泉に何度も入れるのもいですね。

自然に囲まれたとても静かな場所です。 くつろげました。 温泉センターも気持ちがよかったです。 熊野大社から車で5分ぐらいで、川湯温泉からも近いので立地は本当によいです。
