About this spot

This is a day-use hot spring facility run by Shinto Village, an unpretentious place used by locals in daily life. There is a dining corner inside where you can have a light meal such as noodles, making it a convenient stop for filling up before water play. Bathing is optional; you can also just come for the food. It's also common to stop by after water play to warm up, but since the fountain closes at 15:00, on this day it works better to stop here first for lunch.

Tips

Open from 10:00 to 21:00; noodle dishes are served from 11:00 to 19:00. Closed on the second and fourth Monday of each month (or the following Tuesday if it's a holiday). Check the facility's information for bathing fees. It's fine to use just the dining area. Shinsui Park is a short drive away.
