【Meet Your Hosts!】
We are a family of four, a couple with two children, who moved to Kochi Prefecture. We have been hosting for 10 years and are thrilled to welcome you!

【Seasonal Nature & Activities】
In this area, you can immerse yourself in nature and experience the seasons with all five senses throughout the year.
Spring: We recommend hiking along the river to admire mountain cherry blossoms and fresh greenery. Be soothed by the chirping of wild birds and the beauty of young leaves reflected in the clear stream.
Summer: Enjoy river play, stone skipping, and stream fishing at the Kagami River (just a 1-minute walk from our guesthouse), Oonakyo Gorge. It's popular with families, whether you're diving in with a swimsuit or playing in the shallows with your children.
Autumn: The mountains glow with vibrant autumn colors. Enjoy a picnic while gazing at the red and yellow leaves reflected on the river surface. Mornings and evenings can be a bit chilly, making it perfect for a hot spring visit.
Winter: In the quiet, still mountains, stargazing is highly recommended. The vast starry sky seen in the crisp, clear air is breathtakingly beautiful.
【Relaxing Hot Spring】
For those wishing to soothe travel fatigue, we highly recommend the open-air hot spring at Auberge Tosayama, which you can enjoy even for a day trip. Refresh your mind and body while gazing out at the magnificent nature.
