Guest Reviews

• Minako (1/5): 最悪 - なし 何年ますにも渡りリピーターです。今回2泊予約し初日1650到着時に建物に鍵がかかっていて誰もいない。連絡したら東京にいるから3時間待て、とのこと。寒い中20時まで何もする事がない場所で待てないので隣の宿に助けを求め素泊まりで泊まらせてもらえた。更にこの地域一帯が使用する井戸ポンプ故障との事だが、隣の宿や他の宿(シャトー塩沢)は時前の雨水タンクを備えていてトイレ、洗面、風呂には困らなかったがこの宿は全て出来ず、トイレは女性個室1箇所。風呂に溜めた雪解け水を黒いバケツの水で流しでトイレットペーパーは流せないからゴミ箱に。風呂入れない代替えの近く温泉施設回数券も言わないとくれない。(私はもらえたが他の人は同じ温泉施設に行くとスタッフにつげてももらえず翌日情報共有後もらえていた)飲料水は造り酒屋の仕込み水を外からポリタンクに汲んで来て飲料水としているが台所シンクで歯磨き、洗面をする状態。 リピーターだから事情も分かっていて安い宿だから…と理解して来ましたが今回はさすがに宿の運営と衛生的に問題を感じた。安くてありがたいと思って利用して来ましたが隣の宿の方が1泊素泊まり2名で200円安い上に暖房費800円追加料金なくこたつ、TV、ストーブが部屋に完備だった。
• katsumi (1/5): 最悪 - 宿に着いてから水が出ないと言われた
• Yi-neng (4/5): -
• Junko (5/5): - 遅くの到着や、トラブル発生時、オーナーの方が優しかった。泊まってる方も優しかった。 燃油代¥800／1日1部屋別途請求 井戸水ポンプが壊れていて水が使用出来ず。 (雪解けしてからの修理だそうで、4月下旬頃から？) お風呂なし、トイレは自分で流す、食器を洗うのも大変。 水の大切さが理解でき、子供にとっては貴重な学びの体験でしたが、その分、親は大変でした。十分安い金額でしたが、せめて燃油費取らないでほしかったなー。 目の前がスキー場なので、そこで遊ぶなら、とても立地の良い宿でした。
• FARAH SHAZLIN JOHARI (8/5): - The location is very strategic and the scenary view.. Stair.
• ホイハン (9/5): 大満足 - オーナーさんは優しい、5日間毎日スキー場まで送ってもらって、迎えてもらいました！免許が持ってないスノボ中毒者にはめっちゃくちゃおすすめ！
• Takahiro (4/5): 値段相応です - 格安で宿泊できました。 水道が壊れて使えなくなっている事を宿泊前に告知してくれなかったので、トイレ、入浴などが不便でした。
• Hiroto (8/5): 寝るだけ泊まる分にはめっちゃいい -
• Nalee (10/5): ประทับใจในคุณลุงที่ให้บริการดี - บริการแบบใส่ใจเหมือนคุณตาบ้านๆแต่ใจดี

• Herbert (10/5): Good stay - Nice little cabin right on hill Heater is on only two periods per day and shower with hot water just inform keeper to turn on heat
• Ryan (10/5): Cozy, personable, and an unforgettable stay. - Felt like home. One of the best displays of hospitality I’ve ever experienced.

• EISUKE (8/5): 管理人さん最高にいい人（話さないとわからない） - キッチン道具が沢山あり、自由に料理出来る 追加料金が色々あるので、 入り口に明示して欲しい

• KURODA (8/5): 布団が綺麗であれば、もう一度宿泊すると思います。 - 自由度があり、小さなキッズルームもございますので、子供たちは退屈することなく楽しむことができました。布団に入りますと、すぐに夢の旅へと出発いたしました。 宿代を考えると文句無し！全体的には泊まって良かった。 オーナーさんが高齢者なのに体力的にはパワーあってすごい！たくましい体型しています。 スキー場から宿に戻ると部屋が寒い！でも、値段的には文句無し！風呂場は一つだけ！順番待ちで時間かかる！朝支度時、お湯が出ない！皿洗いとか冷たくて苦難！布団が古い！
• Maria Gemma (9/5): A beautiful ski n out budget accomodation - I didn’t expect much at first since it’s a budget accommodation and mainly for ski-in/ski-out, but it turned out to be really nice. My son absolutely loved it here. The room was comfortable and clean, and the toilets were well-maintained. The rooms also have a beautiful view directly overlooking the ski area. If you want to use the bath, you just need to inform Mr. Kitamura so he can turn on the heater. The ski area is literally right outside the house. We truly enjoyed the skiing activities, especially my son, as it was his first time snowboarding. The place wasn’t crowded, and the slope is perfect for beginners, with more challenging runs available if you take the lift up for more advanced skiers. You can rent all ski gear right beside the house at Chateau Shiozawa Ski Ipponsugi Resort. The place is managed by the owner himself, who is already 81 years old yet still very active and hands-on, which is really impressive. I can honestly say this experience was far better than GALA Yuzawa, which we visited before coming here. Rentals are much cheaper and the area is far less crowded. Mr. Kitamura even drove us to a nearby supermarket to buy everything we needed for a small fee of ¥600. His kitchen is fully equipped, so we were able to cook our own wagyu. Just make sure to inform him in advance if you need transportation, such as pick-up or drop-off at Shiozawa Station, especially if you don’t have a car. The accommodation is located in the mountains, about 2.5 kilometers from the station. The mountain views are absolutely beautiful. We met many guests during our stay, including several returning visitors, which says a lot about the place. Please note there is an additional ¥800 fee for the heater and ¥200 for towels. There’s also a nice street called Bokushi near Shiozawa Station worth visiting. Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay at Futago Cabin, and I would definitely come back again if we visit during the winter season. Nothing really.

• Noam Lindenbaum (10/5): - הבעלים קיטמורה סאן איש נחמד מאוד, קיבל את פנינו בברכה, והסביר לנו על כל הפסיליטיז בסבלנות. היה נוח לתקשר איתו ב Line ולקבל תשובות מהירות. כשביקשנו המלצות על מסלולי טיול ומסעדות באזור, נענינו בשמחה. היינו צריכים לשלם תוספת עבור החימום. בבוקר לא היו מים חמים.

• NAKAJIMA (3/5): - 早朝には雲海が見れ気温も過ごしやすかった クーラー代として別料金がかかる。廊下、階段等ミシミシと音がする。宿泊者数によっては駐車場が無くなるようだし一度止めても移動をさせられる。お風呂はシャワーのみを勧められる。

• Hsiangyi (8/5): A bit inconvenient, but warm - Walk distance to a local ski resort. Big kitchen with utensils to cook meals for self. A big living room to rest or make friends. Friendly host. There's no public transportation. However, the paid service is provided by the owner.
• Claire (7/5): Really a unique stay. Loved the tatami-floor rooms. Enjoyed the company of the owner who also didnt mind picking us up a - Unique style building. Amazing owner. Chilly outside the room.
• Quang (7/5): Although the facilities are old, the price is reasonable, and the owner is friendly. I will be back. - It was very cheap compared to nearby hotels. The owner is very hospitable. The guests are young, international, and friendly. The facilities are too old, the room is too cold, and the parking area is not well-prepared.
• Aman (9/5): Superb -
• Khairul (10/5): Cosy simple old style cabin - Came here for family winter snow experience. The area is a bit isolated, so its not too crowded. Better to have a vehicle for easy access to amenities and dining. Host is very helpful and can speak basic english. Its an old style building with squeeky wooden floor and stairs.
• Cyberlola (10/5): AMAZING cabin in the mountain, FANTASTIC staff, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! - We chose Futago Cabin for the proximity to some ski resorts we wanted to visit in this New Year Holiday and we are SO happy we chose this wonderful place. The staff was fantastic, extremely kind and helpful, the price we paid was unbeatable, the view from anywhere was breathtaking and it felt like being in a real cabin in the mountains. The kitchen was equipped with everything one needs for a holiday to prepare meals, guests can use the refrigerator to put food and drinks inside, and there are supermarkets (Harimaya or Nattus) quite close to the hotel which sell ready to eat meals, and that's what we did for the 4 nights 5 days we spent there. Coffee and tea are provided free of charge, one just can make them by using the hot water electric kettle in the dining room. The mattresses in our room were VERY comfortable and even though it is an older building, we didn't hear other guests talking in their rooms from our room, it was always nice and quiet. Fuel for the room heater costs 600 yen per day, one has just to bring the tank down and the friendly owner will fill it up immediately. Our room was always nice and warm. The bathroom is clean and it was located quite close to the room, separated for men and ladies. We were VERY happy to have found Futago Cabin, and we are going back on March :) HIGHLY Recommended for those looking for a cabin in the mountains style of stay! We liked everything. I can't think of anything we didn't like. From our arrival to our departure, everything was excellent.
• Otgonbaatar (1/5): Total disappointment - The worst booking.com experience ever! I suggest no one to stay there as it disappoint it clearly. Not clean. No running water. Not welcoming staff and so on.
• Arun (9/5): Superb -
• Narita (1/5): Bad -
• Azana (9/5): Planning to come again. - Easy to parking. Staff very helpful.
• Louise (9/5): After having stayed there for 5 nights, we certainly recommend his cabin, we had such a great time understanding the pla - We like that it is very personable, we throughly enjoyed the warmth and cosy home feel at the common area where you get to meet other people.
• Monica (10/5): Exceptional - Real Ski in and out None
• Masud (9/5): Superb - Nice
• Viet (7/5): Good -
• Monica (10/5): Amazing - Best price for weekend None
• Monica (9/5): Much better than I expected - Right next to ski area and chair lift None
• Dean (10/5): Exceptional - Stayed here a couple of time now. Always the first place I check. it's close to the snow resorts, for a great price and the staff is always friendly and helpful. The windows can rattle loud when it's windy but nothing a rolled up tissue wedged inbetween can't fix.
• Nguyen (10/5): good - The guest house near by Chateau ski resort and many others. The owner provide transportation with a small price. The view is breath taking. The owner can speak English.
• Alexandria (10/5): Exceptional - Location was beautiful! Ski in and ski out property! Absolutely amazing host, very quiet area and relatively cheap snowboarding grounds!
• Ycon (10/5): Exceptional - I had the pleasure of staying at Futago Cabin last July while attending Fuji Rock Festival. Since I didn't have access to a car, Mr. Kitamura graciously offered to drive me to the nearest station and pick me up after the festival. His kindness and thoughtfulness truly made my stay special. While the accommodations are basic, they offer excellent value for the price, and the view from the cabin is absolutely breathtaking. I'm deeply grateful to Mr. Kitamura for his hospitality and look forward to the opportunity to stay in this lovely place again soon.
• Jacob (1/5): Bad - Nothing The rooms were dirty, dusty, the shower floor was dirty and moldy , the staff was rude , the parking space is ass , bed had bed bugs, worst stay ever
• Rajendiran (8/5): it is a nice stay and very much worth. The accommodation surrounded by nature , beautiful location - very nice service. we did late check in due to traffic jam. But the owner accommodated us nicely
• たかし (10/5): - 素晴らしい環境の中の施設、設備も充実！
• Sabrina (10/5): Exceptional - Futago Cabin was a great place to stay. The owner was very accommodating with our late arrival and the communal kitchen was well stocked. Would definitely stay again.
• Muhammet (7/5): Good -
• まやこ (8/5): - 施設は古いですが、寝るだけなので特に問題はなかったです。 自分たちで、料理を作って食べられるので、大人数でも楽しめました
• Hughes (10/5): Exceptional -
• Hsiu-ting (10/5): The host is really nice. He recommended lots of sight seeing spots and good restaurant for me. Would like to stay here a - Nice view from room and very quiet at night.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Be warned: this property is NOT in Minamiuonuma, or even very close to town. To avoid an absurd taxi fare, catch the local train to Shiozawa and arrange for the property owner to pick you up at the station. That aside, the property itself is very basic, but also charming. Owner is absolutely lovely. Location has outstanding views, and the back of the building directly faces a ski lift. As long as you're not expecting much from the place, it is more than sufficient for a quick stay.
• JING (10/5): Good experience! - Had a very good time there. Tks for hosting me!
