Surrounded by emerald green forest, the property oozes old world charm; elevated by the gracious hospitality of the owner and staff. The highlights include; the large panel glass windows in the rooms that give panoramic views of the lush green forest, and the hotel onsen. There are two baths, a hot one indoors and a cold outdoor bath that it open to the forest. You can watch the mist roll down the mountains and engulf trees from the outdoor bath. This lodge is a hidden gem.

This lodge is located high up in the mountains, which gives it the most peaceful and tranquil setting. The lodge provided a shuttle which drives you everyday to whichever ski field you want within Myoko area. Thankyou Yutaka, our driver was awesome! The staff were amazing and very friendly. We couldn't speak Japanese, but the staff were wonderfully patient with us and we managed with google translate. We did the breakfast and dinner package, as there is no where to go in the evening unless you have a car. The food was really good and authentically Japanese. We loved it.
Nothing.

Excellent experience. Picked up at train station Myoko Kogen. Each day we were driven to a different ski field / arranged a pick up time. All transfers included. No need for a car. Onsite onsen small but sufficent. Bar area to socialise, amazing views from room. Staff were helpful - google translate solved lots of communication issues. Not suitable if you want to be out in town at night. Breakfast and dinner included - plenty of food and variety. Unusual ingredients at night but that is the Japanese way. Take snacks if you need and sweets as no shop nearby. You can actually ski from lodge to top of Akakura Onsen ski run - they will ask you to sign a disclaimer - go through the tunnel and ski down and then buy a lift pass. It is a 20 - 30 min drive to other ski lift starts. Highly recommended. (Australia)

What an amazing experience staying at Tsubame Highland Lodge. The owner of the lodge might be the best Japanese person I’ve ever met - so lovely and helpful and friendly. The Onsen - a mix of cold and hot has also been my favourite of the trip. And the view of the trees and the snow from our room and lodge made it the most perfect cosy stay.
I loved dinner but breakfast wasn’t really for me (Japanese continental). Also if you aren’t out adventuring (like skiing) during the day then make sure to bring snacks for lunch as there aren’t a lot of options in the area especially if you don’t have a car. We ended up walking 1.5 hours return in search of lunch (which was actually very nice).

Very cosy very quiet. Surroundings are beautiful. Room was very spacious. Onsen was nice :) But the staff were the best!!! They were so kind and lovely. They even helped us arrange doctor visit and medicine when my partner was sick. Meals included were also delicious!
The drive up the last few minutes might be a bit scary on a snowy day. In saying that, we had a 2WD with snow tires and we got there fine :D

The lodge is very comfortable, warm and clean. Onsen is hot and relaxing. The view is beautiful. We stayed for seven nights and really enjoyed our stay. Breakfast and dinners are delicious and nutritious.
The location is a bit remote but road is well maintained for driving in winter if you bring your car. Upside is you will see awesome mountain view.

The staff and hotel were lovely and relaxing, felt quite remote with a big window in our room showing snow covered woods.
The actual road the the hotel is on was closed, and although they advise you to go around the back way, the road is still closed, though for a shorter section. It was not plowed like the main roads and was drivable in our hire car however there was more snow expected the following day and I felt we could have gotten stuck.

Everything. The location is like a dream. The staff is incredibly welcoming and kind. It's like being invited into a home. The onsen was amazing, the food was amazing, the hosts are amazing. Everything was amazing.
Nothing. If you are sensitive to kerosene fumes you might not like it, but you won't like a lot of buildings in Japan if that's the case. I grew quite fond of it, and now everywhere I smell it, I get homesick for Tsubame Highland Lodge.

Great location up in the mountains and surrounded by beautiful woodland. Hosts were amazing, even though they spoke little English, however they made their best effort to accommodate and help us, including lifts to the neighbouring towns. The Lodge itself is beautiful, if a little old but this adds to its eclectic charm. Dinner was delicious. Sitting out in the lounge with other guests and a sake on-the-house was the perfect way to unwind after a long day.
