Kaminoyama
Kaminoyama
One of Zao mountains ski slopes where you can only hear the sound of silence!
For train lovers. There's a lot of little stop off points with out of the way level crossings to see the Shinkonsen from Yamagata to Tokyo where the train runs along a single track line at a slow speed.

It was very comfortable and in a convenient location. We had everything we needed for cooking except a chopping knife. We ended up buying a knife, which we are taking home with us. We appreciated how clean it was, also that we could use the washing machine. Thank you!
