Excellent host. Not a traditional Japanese style accommodation but super cozy. Rooms are simple style but very clean. I'm not a vegan but fully enjoyed the vegan breakfast. It was so tasty. The couple who runs the pension is very nice and helpful. I would definitely come back in summer to enjoy the escape from the heat (apparently you don't need aircon in this region!). 15 mins walk to the Lake Yamanaka and you get great view of Mt. Fuji!
Being a strict vegetarian and an almost vegan man who meditates, I found this loving resort most satisfying. The food prepared for me is beyond description. I can't say enough about the quality, variety, taste, appearance and service. To me it's gourmet vegan Japanese delicacies It's in nature, easy to find nice walking around lake or close hikes. The owners, Hiromi and Shinji are most helpful and have taken me here and there to make my stay great. I booked one night and stayed seven. The price is most reasonable.
