"初めて利用しました 私と妻、中学生の息子、小学生の娘、メス1歳のポメラニアン1匹と宿泊しました 部屋もお風呂もキッチンもベッドもとても良かったです 部屋も広くてゆったりできます ペットの犬は初めての旅行で心配だったのですが安心して過ごせました 外についてるドッグランも綺麗にされていて、初めてのドッグランも楽しめました ただ季節柄、立地柄、虫が多く、到着時に部屋に大きめのアブがいたので持参の殺虫剤にて駆除しました。スズメバチなども近くを飛んでいたのでジェットタイプの殺虫剤なども部屋に備え付けてくださると嬉しいです それと蚊もかなりいて、だいぶ刺されたので虫除けを忘れずに準備する必要があると思います。 ふつーの湯船ですが溜めるお湯が温泉なのは地味にポイントが高いです 機会があればまた是非泊まりに伺いたいですね。"

"12月の年始に利用させていただきました。大雪かと思っていましたが、幹線道路から平地をたどっていったので、街中と雪の量は変わらず安心しました。別荘地を出たところには、カフェやレストランもあり、6キロ先にはスーパーがあり、買い物には不便を感じませんでした。 建物はしっかりとした作りで、キッチン周りの設備もしっかりと整い、清潔に感じました。外は寒いのですが、暖炉もあり、家の中はとても暖かかったです。 何よりも素晴らしかったのは、家の中に温泉があることです。温泉の良い香りも漂っており、いつでも入れるという安心感が、とても贅沢に感じました。 1点、少し気になったのは、掃除です。家具が多いためか、部屋の隅の方の掃除が行き届いていないところも少しありました。総じて、素晴らしかったです。また利用させていただきます。"
