Minshuku Nakano is a family-run guesthouse located in the southern part of Chikatsuyu village. Originally it was frequented by fishermen looking to catch the delicious Ayu sweetfish that thrive in the nearby Hiki-gawa river (the owner is an avid fisherman himself), but they have opened their home and hearts to walkers and pilgrims on the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage route. It is located 10 minutes on foot from the Chikatsuyu-oji.
Meals are prepared by a nearby cafe called Waraji-jaya. The evening meal is delivered to the minshuku in a bento box style. Breakfast is served at the cafe, around a 5-minute walk. The lunch box is a set of local rice balls which is picked up at the cafe.

Guest House AGAE (pronounced "ah-gah-eh") is a lovingly renovated rental house in Chikatsuyu village. The building is fully furnished, with the deep brown wood of the beams adding atmosphere. It was the dream of Ms. Ono to run a guesthouse after returning to her hometown after 2 decades of working abroad. After searching for many years for the right place, she found it near the edge of Chikatsuyu settlement near the local A-coop grocery store, a very convenient location. As a local guide, she hopes to host and meet other pilgrims to share her passion for Chikatsuyu and the Kumano Kodo. There are two rooms available, one Japanese-style, and one Western-style, each with its own entrance and washing area and toilet. Only the Japanese-style room has a bathtub and kitchen. The Western-style room has a shower.
MEALS: Meals and bentos are provided by local cafes. See details below.
