[1 group per day] Starlit Sauna Hidden Private Lodging/20-minute drive from Morioka Station/Private Retreat Twinkle Stars

A short drive from the city of Morioka. Twinkle Stars, a private building standing alone on a hill. There, away from everyday life, a special time just for them passes slowly. Outside the accommodation, there is a spacious, large wooden deck measuring approximately 350 square metres. In this place, which offers the unique sense of openness of the mountains and a vast expanse of sky, you can leisurely enjoy the endless night sky and a sky full of stars at night. One of the unique charms of this accommodation is that, as the city lights recede into the distance, the twinkling of the stars seems even more beautiful. At night, the area around the deck is softly lit, creating a special, almost magical atmosphere as it contrasts with the pitch-black darkness that surrounds it. In spring, the cherry blossoms bloom, and spending time admiring the scenery is a truly special experience. Surrounded by the sound of the campfire, the fresh air and the soft lighting, you can enjoy a moment away from everyday life. In addition, we also offer an outdoor barrel sauna that you can enjoy under the starry sky. Time spent 'nurturing yourself' in nature makes your stay even more special. Time for ourselves, without being disturbed by anyone. Enjoy a special night at Twinkle Stars, surrounded by wide-open skies and a sky full of stars.

A 10-minute walk from central Morioka  On the banks of the Nakatsugawa River… an inn brimming with Morioka charm, available to one group per day 'Oyakuen-mae'

Enjoy a timeless experience at this inn, surrounded by the garden of the Nanbu family, lords of the Morioka domain (now the Morioka Chūō Community Centre Garden), and the Nakatsugawa River, an iconic symbol of Morioka that has flowed through the heart of the castle town since the Edo period. Just a one-minute walk away, across the street, lies a strolling garden. It is said that this garden was known as the 'Oyakuen' because it was used to grow medicinal herbs for Morioka Castle. Located right in front of it, this house has a sign that reads 'Oyakuenmae' and started offering private accommodation from April 2026. We have renovated this 50-year-old building into a space that cherishes the past while embracing the future. Based on the concept of an accommodation that feels like a home away from home, where you can enjoy Iwate as if you lived here and want to come back again and again, we will do our utmost to ensure that your stay is a truly heartwarming experience.
