Highlight during our trip - Michelin star quality food
We stayed with Naoko and Koji for one night while walking the Kumano Kodo. Directly after our booking, Naoko reached out to check our meal preferences. This was very thoughtful. And when arriving at the Tsugizakura-oji, Koji was ready to pick us up there. They gave us a very warm welcome and we loved to exchange ideas about nature, culture, art and other topics. We learned some interesting things from them and felt very much at home. The food Naoko prepared was just delicious and very much appreciated after a long hike. Koji took the time to discuss our next day's hike and had some great suggestions. They are very very special people who give their guests a very warm and comfortable stay at their lovely home. We hope to be back one day!

United States (solo traveler male)
the host Koji and his wife were nice hosts. Their house is a little off the track; I had to walk 2.2km to get their guesthouse after I walked out from Kumano trail; I did not ask them for pickup even if they offer this service. Their house has 2 guest rooms and 2 restrooms and 1 shared bathroom. It was very warm and comfortable place which like all Japanese homes, very functional and clean. They are such a lovely couple who speak a little English. Mr. Koji was very nice and friendly; he pentiendly explained to me the walking route for the next day. The couple worked together for cooking, and dined with me and the 2 other guests from china; all of us had a fantastic meal getting to know each other and learning a little of their lives. They provided delicate and delicious dinner and breakfast foods and also provided me with lunch box. My stay at their guesthouse was very happy and memorable.

We had great experience here. House hosts are warm, polite and considerate. We could find everything we need in the house: healthy and yummy hand-made meals, bath including clothes-drying system, coffee and tea, lunch box for next day's hiking.

Fantastic
Naoko and her husband Koji were wonderful hosts. Their house is a little off the track but they offer pick up service from the end of the hiking track so that was great. However, we chose to walk an extra 2 km to their house as we were early and that was an easy downhill/flat ~2km walk. Their house has 2 guest rooms and 2 WCs and 1 shared bathroom. It was very comfortable and like all Japanese bathrooms, very functional and clean. They are such a lovely couple who speak a little English and are very keen to engage with us and learn more. They dined with us and the 2 other guests and all 6 of us had a fantastic meal getting to know each other and learning a little of their lives. They are new at the hosting endeavour but I suspect they will do very well. Naoko cooked the most amazing food and provided us with 3 delicious meals. Our stay at their home was very memorable which we will cherish for a long time.

Friendly guest house with home made cooking
A wonderful host family offering home-made food (the woman appeared to have been cooking for a few hours), warm hospitality shown by making dryers available for wet shoes and clothes, cleaning up the bathrooms promptly where other guests left the floor area wet, and having coffee and hot water available at all times.

The hosts ate with us and so between us two, our three companions from Australia and our hosts we had a wonderful discussion about the hike, Japanese food and life in this part of rural Japan. Wonderful friendly hosts. Very glad we had the opportunity to stay here.

Lovely house in the mountains!
This stay was lovely. They picked me up at the last stop of the hike and drove me to their beautiful house with the best views! I had amazing plant based meals, including the lovely and fullfiling bento box. It was a very enjoyable dinner with them. My room was a big tatami room with a very comfy fouton. You can do your laundry here. I felt welcomed and comfortable here. I'm really grateful to have found this amazing house on the mountain.
