10 mins walk from the train station, up and down hill with a steep slope but the room view facing the mountains is exceptional. Taka Sen is a great host and he takes me to a morning walk at 0630 showing the beauty along the seashore when the sunrises. Must hike the Jogasaki coast and it takes about 3 hours. You will enjoy the breathtaking and majestic view of the rugged volcanic rocks in different formation. I will definitely come back to Izukogen again.

Don't try to do the laundry in the Pension as it cost 1,000Yen each time. This is the most expensive charge during my experience!

Enjoyed our stay at Pension Izukogen! Only a few minutes walk from the station and the neighborhood was quiet and lovely. The bedding was very comfortable and breakfast was very nutritious. Enjoyed the morning walk with the host for the two days of our stay and learned a lot about the local culture. Will definitely recommend this place to our friends!

The warm welcome and introduction from the hosts, as well as everything they did during our stay. The host took me to a morning walk even it was raining when he would usually skip the walk. The grill dinner was great, with enough and high quality food. The home made breakfast was also amazing. It’s located in a beautiful and peaceful area.

The cleanness of the room can be improved, some corners are a bit dusty.

very clean and room is spacious. location is good and can walk from the station, the road is kind of up and down and not 100% easy when you are with a luggage but it's still ok. owner the couple they are really nice and friendly, he invites the guests to the morning walking which is really good place and has a beautiful view. i had dinner at their house too the it's BBQ and the food is really nice. will stay again if i visit the place again.

nothing.

The BBQ dinner and the morning walk to the Jogasaki coast guided by the pension owner. The pension owner introduced the various sights and dining places around the area which assisted us a lot to plan the trip. He also helped us to check if the trail on Mt Omuro was opened due to the inclement weather to facilitate our decision to go or not.

Super friendly host/owner who can communicate well in English. His morning walking tour is worth getting up for. Had great recommendations for places to eat and visit. Was able to tailor breakfast for vegetarians, too. The room was clean and while I have a mold allergy didn't have any issues here (many old hotels/homes in Japan aren't good for me). The aircon was a high-end Fujitsu model that you don't see very often in lodging and it did a great job.

Depending on how many people are staying in the two rooms could be waits for the shared toilet and bathroom.

Our host was very communicative, and wanted to get to know us. He took us on a morning walk at 6:30 AM to see the coastline, and was very knowledgable about the area. The location was excellent: very close to the train station (8 min walk) but still in a residential area. There are a lot of quirky museums nearby, and the coast was only about 15-20 minutes away.

The room was just a bit cramped: the was another trundle bed up against the wall, so with 3 twin beds side by side there wasn't much room left. Also, there was a large (harmless) spider that we ended up catching and releasing. We saw another downstairs, so I think it's safe to say they are just part of the area, and you should be prepared to face them in any home around izu-kogen. About the area itself: we went to see the Illumination show at the Izu Granpal park and struggled to get a taxi home, which was stressful. Our host was unable to pick us up, and the park employees had to help us.

We went during February and it was very enjoyable despite not being the summer, so I definitely recommend also going during the winter season. Everything was very clean, the breakfast was very good, the property was very pretty and the host very nice and made a lot of recommendations! The station was 10 minutes away from the house! The owner also took us to take a walk to Jogosaki trails and it was very pretty! I definitely recommend this stay!

This place is great. You will love it. Taka and Mo are unbeatable hosts or innkeepers. It is located in a beautiful residential neighborhood walking distance to the Jogasaki Coast, and Taka's morning tour of the Jogasaki is breath-taking. Beautiful scenery, informative guide (Taka), and a good hike. Mo makes an excellent and healthy breakfast every morning with high class coffee and tea . . . Only the best. You will want to stay here again. I will. It's an 8-minute walk to the Izu-Kogen train station and a 1 to 4 minute walk to a number of restaurants down museum road.

Izu-kogen is a beautiful place and Takamune-san and his wife are loveable host. At my arrival I was welcomed with a bbq-dinner which was amazingly good (even way too much for just one person). The breakfast is western and made by Takamune's wife, I enjoyed it thoroughly, they make sure you've got everything you need. If Takamune-san invites you on a morning walk, be sure to accept, because it's a beautiful walk and he might share some information about his ancestors, which I found really interesting!
