天然温泉もみの木

The system is as follows: you put 100 yen into the shoe locker (it's returned when you leave), purchase a bath ticket from the vending machine, and then hand the locker key and bath ticket to the reception. The bath fee, including the bedrock bath, is 900 yen for adults (950 yen on weekends). Large bath towels can be rented for 250 yen. The parking lot is spacious and easy to park in. Food is reasonably priced at 400 yen for zaru soba and kake soba. Plus, large portions are free. Delicious. The cafeteria staff are friendly, and I always end up using it. It's not that crowded on weekdays, but it gets very crowded on weekends. Even though I rented a bath towel, the bedrock bath is almost always full and I can't use it. I wish they would limit the bedrock bath to those who rent a bath towel, at least on crowded days. What was the point of paying for a bath towel then...? The baths include a carbonated spring (lukewarm), a natural hot spring (slightly hot), an electric bath, a jet bath, and an open-air bath. There's also a sauna and a bedrock bath. While there wasn't any reserving of shower spots, there were a few inconsiderate people rinsing their shampoo while standing. The shower spray was splashing onto the person next to them, and I really wish they'd stop. The cleaning staff comes and goes frequently, but I hope they'll tell people to stop standing while showering in areas meant for sitting. It's more unpleasant than you might imagine to be splashed with soapy water that someone else has used to wash their head and body. Also, in the women's changing room, there was an inconsiderate parent and child sitting on a stool in front of the lockers, fiddling with their smartphones. I was so shocked I had to do a double-take. The cleaning is thorough, but I wish they'd be more attentive to their surroundings. It's disappointing to encounter people like that when you're supposed to be relaxing at a hot spring. Since it's a place used by many different people, I think it would be a much more comfortable space if everyone followed basic manners.

November 7, 2024 "Mominoki" (Fir Tree). Open 10:00-22:00, last entry 1 hour before closing. Adults: 900 yen on weekdays, 950 yen on weekends, includes bedrock bath. Shoe locker: 100 yen (refundable), changing room lockers: free, valuables lockers: free. System: Hand your shoe locker key and admission ticket to the reception to receive a locker key. Body soap, shampoo, and hair dryers are provided. The bathhouse has an indoor main bath (natural spring water), carbonated bath, electric bath, jet bath, dry sauna, cold bath, and bedrock bath, and an outdoor open-air bath (natural spring water), outdoor relaxation space, deck, and 4 chairs. The spring water is hypotonic, alkaline, low-temperature NaCa chloride sulfate spring (formerly gypsum-containing sodium chloride spring). 30.2℃. pH 9.4. Colorless, transparent, almost tasteless, and odorless. The basic fee includes a bedrock bath, which is a good deal, but if you want to use it, you need to bring your own bath towel to lay on the rocks or rent one for 250 yen. The bedrock bath is integrated into the bathing area, and it's a somewhat unusual format where you can use it naked, but it was a proper bedrock bath. The water is a typical saline spring with a mild quality that is gentle on the body. There is a private space where you can sit on the rocks and cool off in the back of the open-air bath, and I relaxed there. The restaurant has a stylish and calm atmosphere, and the set meal I had there was voluminous, with free refills on large portions, and I think it was reasonably priced. The service was also kind and warm, which left a good impression. The entire facility was kept clean, with staff frequently cleaning it during my stay. The entrance fee is a little on the high side, but I think the facilities and hospitality are worth it, and the satisfaction level is high.

This hot spring facility is brand new, having opened two years ago. The interior is spacious and beautiful. There's also a large tatami room. The baths are all comfortably warm, and there's a natural hot spring, carbonated spring, electric bath, cold bath, open-air bath, sauna, and even a bedrock bath. What's more, the bedrock bath is included in the bathing fee if you bring your own bath towel, so there's no extra charge! It's very reasonable. The restaurants are reasonably priced, and the food is pretty tasty. However, while this may have been unavoidable for the facility's operations, As a hot spring lover, I'm disappointed that despite having a highly alkaline spring with a pH of 9.4, the same level as Nakayamadaira Onsen's "Shintoro no Yu," famous for its thick, skin-beautifying waters, and Izu Kogen's "Kogen no Yu," they go to the trouble of neutralizing this rare, highly alkaline spring water for disinfection. If it had remained at its original high alkaline level, I'm sure word would have spread and customers would have come from far and wide, but perhaps it was unavoidable for hygiene reasons. If that hadn't happened, my review would have ended with me saying that it was a great bath, but it seems like the hot spring had a lot of potential, so I can't help but feel it's a shame. That said, this is just the opinion of someone who loves hot springs and doesn't know much about hot spring facilities, so it may be unavoidable due to the nature of the facility... It's true, though, that the ingredient analysis sheet states, "For hygiene purposes, chemicals are added beforehand to make it neutral, and then disinfected with chlorine."

A new facility. Shoe lockers require a 100 yen deposit with a returnable key. You receive a locker key in exchange for the deposit. I used a 700 yen coupon for my first visit by registering on LINE. When I showed the screen at the front desk beforehand, they showed me a special button on the bottom right of the ticket machine and instructed me to use that to issue my ticket. I was going to have lunch first, but there seemed to be a sports group there, so I changed my plan to go to the bath first. The lockers in the changing room are on the smaller side. Water dispensers and hair dryers are provided. The bath area has about 13 faucets and good water pressure. Amenities are provided. The bedrock bath is included in the price, so you can use it freely if you bring your own or rent a bath towel. There is a sauna and an open-air bath. The indoor bath has a 39℃ carbonated bath, a 40.5℃ natural hot spring bath, an electric bath, and a jet bath (switch-operated). It's not a free-flowing hot spring, but since water isn't pouring in from the spout, it doesn't seem necessary. For lunch, we had a hamburger steak set meal and a beef yakiniku set meal at the restaurant. The hamburger steak was just okay. The yakiniku meat was tough and the sauce was salty. Rice portions are free for large servings. On the way home, I bought some inexpensive fresh figs to make candied figs. This facility, including this restaurant, requires cash only.

It's located between Funaoka and Higashi-Funaoka on the Abukuma Line. The parking space is relatively spacious. The fee is 900 yen for adults on weekdays and 950 yen on weekends. A 100 yen shoe locker fee is also required, which is to be returned later. I visited on a weekend around noon, and there were quite a few customers. Shampoos and other amenities are provided. The bathroom has about 20 washing stations and a bathtub. There is also a sauna and a cold bath. There are also standing shower booths and an open-air bath. Most customers seem to be there for the sauna. Most seem to be locals. There are two types of bathtubs: a carbonated water bath and a regular one. There is also an electric bath and a Jacuzzi. The carbonated water bath is large enough for about 6-7 people. The temperature feels like it's around 41°C. The regular bath is large enough for about 15 people. The water is clear and colorless. Due to the nature of the facility, it seems to be circulated and disinfected. The water is also heated. The temperature feels a little hot, around 42°C. The open-air bath is large enough for about 4-5 people.
