The bath

What you’ll find

A small, calcium-rich local day-use onsen near Jomo-Kogen station popular with hikers and skiers, with a source-fed but very cramped outdoor bath (room for only 1-2 people); reviewers report it announced permanent closure effective March 31, 2025 due to rising fuel costs, though one later review describes visits that leave the current status unclear.

Day-use visits

Three reviewers in March 2025 report the facility closed as of 31 March 2025, one citing fuel-cost inflation; it had already taken a temporary closure Sep 1-Nov 30 2024 per one reviewer. One later review (Feb 2026) describes repeat visits without mentioning closure, so current status is uncertain — verify before visiting.

stated by 5 visitors · Sep 2024 – Feb 2026

Day-use visits

When operating: one reviewer says it opened at 12:00; one reports that from April 2024 hours were shortened to 19:00 closing with Thursdays added as a regular closed day; two state the 600-yen admission covers 2 hours.

Towels, soap & lockers

Rinse-in shampoo and body soap are provided (2 reviewers), with 2 hair dryers (1 reviewer). Free valuables lockers are next to reception — the changing room itself has only shelves and baskets, no lockers (1 detailed reviewer; 1 other confirms depositing valuables in a locker before entering).

Staffing

Staffed reception: one reviewer paid at the front desk and calls the staff kind, and one reports the front desk will hold a small suitcase on request.
