[Enjoying life in this area] Surrounded by rice fields and further encircled by mountains, lies the southern part of Akita Prefecture. Japan's distinct seasons, the temperature difference between day and night, and the bounties of its magnificent nature have led to a flourishing culture of fresh produce, delicious sake, and preserved foods made through fermentation.

I hope you enjoy a stay that feels like home, with all your senses sharpened.
