[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 inn standing alone on a mountain.Here, we escape from our daily routines and enjoy a special time just for ourselves. Outside the accommodation, there is a spacious, large wooden deck measuring approximately 350 square metres.There is a sense of openness that is unique to being on top of a mountain, and at night you can leisurely enjoy the vast sky and a sky full of stars.One of the unique charms of this accommodation is that, because the city lights are far away, the twinkling of the stars feels even more beautiful. At night, the area around the deck is gently illuminated, creating a magical atmosphere that contrasts with the pitch-black darkness surrounding it.In spring, the cherry blossoms bloom, and spending time admiring the scenery is a truly special experience.Enjoy a moment where you forget your everyday life, surrounded by clean air and soft lighting. You can also enjoy a campfire, but there is a fee and you need to discuss it with us.Please contact us in advance if you wish to do so. In addition, there is an outdoor barrel sauna that you can enjoy under the starry sky.Time spent "rejuvenating" in nature makes your stay even more special. Time for ourselves, without being disturbed by anyone.Enjoy a memorable night with "Twinkle Stars", surrounded by the vast sky and a sky full of stars.

Entire house for rent at an Appi Kogen resort, 2 minutes by car to the slopes 

APPI no Mori no Ikken Sora is a wonderful place to spend a heart-enriching time in a quiet environment surrounded by beautiful nature in all seasons. Sora is located within the APPI Snow Mountain Resort area, just 2 minutes by car to the slopes and 5 minutes to the golf course. At the same time, you can access the bustling city of Morioka in just 60 minutes by car, making it a very convenient base for sightseeing in the three prefectures of Iwate, Aomori, and Akita in the Northeast. We recommend using a private vehicle to enjoy a relaxing vacation.

There are also great hot spring areas such as Matsukawa Onsen, and Hachimantai Ski Resort and Shimokura Ski Resort are also nearby. It is a cool highland area at an altitude of 900 m, so you can enjoy the natural air conditioning in the summer and a comfortable stay in the warm rooms in the winter. Enjoy the changing faces of the four seasons, with the fresh green leaves of spring, the cool highland summers, the beautiful autumn leaves, and the snow-covered landscape of winter.

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.
