Family-friendly vacation rentals in Minakami, Tone District

It was a great place to stay. As the name suggests, it has a very open window with a view of the forest, and I had a relaxing time looking out at the wonderful forest. I would definitely recommend it when you come to Oiwake.

Yoshi's place was beautiful and I loved the amazing onsen the most. The view of the forest was great and I enjoyed cooking while looking out the window. The walk to town is only 15 minutes but there are a few restaurants closer by as well. I was also easily able to work from there. thank you for having me.

We had a very comfortable stay! I would like to use it again.

Yaeko is one of the nicest Airbnb host I have ever met, dispute a little hiccup at check in, she made every effort to make things right and to make our stay comfortable. She even brought Sake for us to enjoy. Room is very comfortable, very nice undertable heater and blanket heater. I will definitely stay again when we are in the area next time.

There are many hills around, and it freezes in the winter, so it is better to have not only studless tires, but also chains.

It was a wonderful property designed in a very quiet location. I was very satisfied with the clean and wonderful interior, so I would like to stay a little longer next time. I thought the few problems were that the dishwasher and wifi were not available. Overall, it was a highly recommended stay.

It was a spacious, clean, and very satisfying place to stay. If I get a chance, I will use it again!

It was very atmospheric and fun.

This place is great. Not many foreigners go to Kusatsu Onsen in the first place so the staff being friendly is great. The location is remote (about a 20 minute walk from town) and the walk gets old after about a day considering how many hills there are. I knew this when I booked the place, though. Kusatsu is worth it no matter the walk regardless. The only negative thing that I have to say about this place is that it's cold and I think the kerosene heater broke on night 2. Either that or we're just morons. Either way, fixing the room heaters should be a priority. This minor inonvenience was forgiven when the staff took us to the bus station in a snowstorm, saving us a long and brutal walk. Very kind of them.

The response was quick and the check-in was flexible, which was helpful.

We had a relaxing stay in a whole building.You can BBQ in the garden, there are plenty of chairs and sandals, and the kitchen is close and has plenty of cooking utensils, so it was very easy to use. It was still cold at night, but they prepared a kotatsu and I had a relaxing stay. In particular, they lent us the storehouse in the garden, and we were able to enjoy ourselves at night without worrying about the surroundings. There was an electric guitar, a bass, a classical guitar, and one amp, and the equipment was great. The hosts were also kind and kindly explained things. We would like to stay again.

We really had a great time at kaoru’s place. And host are very friendly. If you looking for a place with real japanese vibe, look no further, this is the best palce. We looking forward to go there again soon!

I used it for the first time, but I had a very comfortable stay! They also responded to the urgent response, and they were really kind and kind! Thank you very much.

LOVED THE STAY!! They allow dogs which is great and the rooms are very spacious. I love sleeping on Japanese Futons (Though people who like soft beds might not) It is in a good location for both skiing and night life. Nozawa Village is hard to get around with steep hills and narrow snowy streets but once you are checked into the stay you are set! They have a dry room but it is very small which is quite normal for Nozawa. The service was top notch and they bent over backwards to accomodate our every need. VERY MUCH RECOMMENDED!!!

Our stay at Mayuko's place was amazing. The house is autenthic and spacious, on a quiet and beautiful location. The garden is very pretty with a river next to it. It's perfect for walking around. We felt at home. The Nagano prefecture is one of the best and we would be happy to stay again! Mayuko is a very nice host and very responsive. Recommend.

We had a truly wonderful family stay at this charming villa. Nestled in the peaceful, tree-lined heart of the Old Karuizawa summer residence area, the location was simply perfect—a serene retreat with easy access to all the beauty and charm of Karuizawa. Each morning, we strolled down to Old Karuizawa Main Street for fresh pastries and coffee, soaking in the nostalgic atmosphere. With a car, the villa made an ideal base to explore not only Old and Central Karuizawa, but also nearby gems like North Karuizawa, Miyota, and Komoro. One of the highlights of our trip was a fun spring ski day in Nozawa, just a scenic 2-hour drive away. The host was incredibly kind and responsive, and handled our last-minute guest change with such flexibility that it made our trip completely stress-free. We’re already dreaming of coming back—next time in the lush summer or the colorful autumn season. Highly recommend this villa for anyone looking for a peaceful yet well-connected Karuizawa escape.

The place was great and easy to find. Host is also responsive and welcoming.

Lovely host. Awesome location - walk to everything, home with great energy for our family of 7 with a baby

Our group of 6 adults loved our stay at Birch Cabin. Would certainly recommend having a car, despite proximity to skii slopes, as the walk looked arduous. In our case, with a car, we had a great time with no issues. The place was as great as it looked.

Exceptional Stay and Outstanding Host! I had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful Airbnb, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! From the moment I arrived, it was clear that this place was special. The house is beautifully decorated, clean, and incredibly well-maintained. Every detail has been thought of, making it feel like a home away from home. The space is spacious, cozy, and filled with thoughtful amenities, making it perfect for both relaxation and exploration. The kitchen was fully equipped, the beds were super comfortable, and the outdoor space was a great bonus, offering a peaceful retreat. What truly made this stay exceptional, however, was the host. They went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed, offering excellent recommendations for local spots to visit, and even providing thoughtful touches like fresh flowers and a welcome basket. Communication was seamless, and they were always available to answer any questions without being intrusive.

It was used for one night. It was a very comfortable space and the explanation was easy to understand. I had a memorable time!The nearby Tsuruya supermarket, hot springs, and tourist attractions are also attractive!

It is my second time staying because it is convenient and comfortable with a drying room right in front of the ski resort.This year it snowed a lot, but the road to the building was also cleared of snow, so I was relieved. The host Lloyd was flexible with check-in, check-out, shopping at the supermarket, and more, which was helpful.The kids love it.

Probably one of the best AirBnB’s we ever stayed! Yoshihito-san kept in touch with me before, during and after our check in and provided the best experience when we were visiting Nagano! The place was beautiful, clean, and felt like home. This is exactly what we needed after wrapping up a stressful quarter at work. If you are looking for a place do destress that is relatively close to Tokyo, this is the place to be! Thank you, Yoshihito-san for your kindness!

This is a really nice place to stay. The house is beautiful and comortable in a very quiet neighborhood woth good walks nearby. i had a great relaxing time here. it is easiest to get to with a car, but you can also take a taxi, or even walk from the Miyota Station in town.
