Nagano · Okomori Yamame

1

A Hideaway for Two and Their Dog

• 🏡Built in 2017 as an inn for couples only, it reopened in April 2020 as a place to stay together with your dog.
• 🐾Meals and baths happen without leaving your room, and there is little contact with other guests' dogs, so your dog stays close to family the whole time.
• 👫Run by a staff of two; children of elementary-school age or younger and solo travelers are not accepted.

Private Cypress Hot-Spring Baths

• ♨️Every room's terrace has a fragrant hinoki-cypress semi-open-air bath fed by natural hot spring water flowing 24 hours a day.
• 💧The alkaline simple spring is known for easing fatigue and stress and for a skin-smoothing effect.
• 🌲The mountain gorge below is lit up at night, so you can soak to the sound of the stream and birdsong.

Log-House Rooms in the Main Building

• 🪵The main building has three rooms, built as log houses of Hita cedar from Oita, filling the space with the scent of wood.
• 🛏️For space and safety, each room has a single double bed, and meals are served on the terrace with the semi-open-air bath.
• 🔧Main-building rooms are not being offered until March 2027 while repairs are made ahead of the inn's 10th anniversary.

The Hanare Cottage with Dog Garden

• 🏠Opened in spring 2024, the detached cottage takes just one group per day and has one double bed, one single bed and one sofa bed.
• 🐕Three indoor doors lead straight into a roofed and walled all-weather dog garden, connected by a private path to the shared dog run.
• ♨️Both the cypress bath on the deck and the indoor bath across the changing room use natural hot spring water.

Creative In-Room Dining

• 🐟The signature dish is fresh yamame trout roasted with rosemary and other herbs in a sizzling skillet.
• 🥩Local beef loin is grilled over charcoal to your liking, and the meal ends with Shinshu soba made with Northern Alps water.
• 🍽️Breakfast and dinner are both served in your room; cottage guests choose from four courses: the signature course, shabu-shabu, sukiyaki or yakiniku.

Dog Facilities and Services

• 🌧️A 140㎡ roofed dog run lets dogs play in rain or snow, and it can be used even after check-out.
• ☕A roofed terrace of about 30㎡ by the entrance is an off-leash space for dogs to meet and owners to chat.
• 🎂Three dog meals (sautéed Shinshu beef, grilled lamb, boiled chicken breast) and anniversary cakes can be ordered with your booking.
