The owner very kindly picked us up from the bus stop and gave us some welcome snacks. He was friendly and kind. The house was very clean and well stocked with all that we needed for our stay. The beds were comfortable, and there were plenty of towels and hot water. The location is perfect. It's just across the road from the lake and we thought had a better view of the lake and islands than from the main part of town. There is a nightly fireworks display which you can watch from here.

Some advice on how to separate the rubbish would be useful. We know that recycling is important, so we wanted to do it right. Although not to do with our stay, guests should know that most restaurants in the area close VERY early. We went for dinner at 7.15pm and couldn't get a meal anywhere. The times on the leaflet provided are out of date and often the restaurants close early if they have run out of food! There is a similar problem at lunchtime. There are very long waits to get a table and again restaurants close early because they sell out of food. We managed to get the last table at a very nice pizza place at only 1.30pm then they closed, although the advertised closing time was 3.30pm!

very calm little house at the lake, it was a beautiful location. we could park our car right in front of the house and the kitchen and bathroom was well equipped

it is directly at a main street but as long as windows are closed it’s not too noisy, it didn’t really bother us but it’s good to know that there are some bugs coming in because it’s close to nature and a forest

Well heated, had a laundry machine. No drier but easily dried by heater. Host was very responsive and attentive. I liked that it was two bedrooms with good privacy.

Maybe a towel hook or storage rack in shower room would be useful. But at least you can close both doors in the laundry to act as a change room. Would recommend having a car to access property (especially at night or during winter) as located closer to the edge of main town area.

We love the warm hospitality by the owner to come to brief us about our stay and nearby attractions. The futon was comfortable and huge. Comfy sleep. Toilet and bathroom are clean. Kitchen is user friendly. Just that there are some bugs around. But not to worry as they do not bite. The view was fantastic when you open the door, it faces the lake. The town is just less than 10mins drive. There's a 711 there and the fireworks can be viewed from the dock.

Although it’s an old building but amenities are all there. Rather spacious bedrooms despite the small exterior outlook, for the price we paid it was acceptable. Convenient location for restaurants roughly 2-6 mins away if you are driving.

Limited/narrow spacing at the staircase. Not able to bring the luggage up.

The house is fully equipped and very clean. Perfect location with a parking space, so it very easy for us to travel around. The house owner was very kind and helpful when we checked in. He also came to say goodbye and gave us hokkaido sweet corns as a souvenir when we were leaving. Overall, we highly recommended to stay.

Fantastic house in a lovely location by Toya Lake, highly recommended! Our family slept nicely upstairs with the blasting AC in summer, we went to see the fireworks just a few minutes away and played on the beach near the house. The owner even came by to greet us and chat for a bit, our kids were very happy here!

Liked its location. Away from the main town but close enough. It's right across from the park where there are sculptures and if you want, you can take a nice walk into town along the lake. Host was friendly. He dropped by to say hi.

We experienced a lovely and relaxing stay in a nice house. It takes you 15 minutes walk on the lake side to get to Toya Onsen. The property is fully equipped and absolutely clean. The hosts are so forthcoming and helpful - absolutely lovely.

The property is right next to a road, so you may hear some traffic pass.

Wonderful stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Lovely views over Lake Toya and an easy stroll into the town. The host was friendly and responsive. Highly recommend!

Nothing. All fabulous!
