Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Shimotakai District

This place is great. Not many foreigners go to Kusatsu Onsen in the first place so the staff being friendly is great. The location is remote (about a 20 minute walk from town) and the walk gets old after about a day considering how many hills there are. I knew this when I booked the place, though. Kusatsu is worth it no matter the walk regardless. The only negative thing that I have to say about this place is that it's cold and I think the kerosene heater broke on night 2. Either that or we're just morons. Either way, fixing the room heaters should be a priority. This minor inonvenience was forgiven when the staff took us to the bus station in a snowstorm, saving us a long and brutal walk. Very kind of them.

Fantastic house! Peaceful, clean, spacious. Would strongly recommend!

We have been looking forward to this trip for some time. On the way, one of our dogs became ill and Fukuda san kept in touch to ensure that we arrived safely. His wife even made sure that our veterinarian visit went smoothly personally. You cannot ask for a better host who make you feel welcomed and treat you like family. We had to cut our stay short but Fukuda san again proactively helped us by adjusting our stay. We will remember your kindness forever. We don’t know how to thank you. We will definitely be back, not only to stay at the dog and dog lovers paradise but also to visit with dear dear friends!

Private, peaceful, pet friendly lodging with good amenities, including a V60 for coffee. Accessible to Niigata landmarks, like the Dragondola and the Veranda. definitely worth revisiting in ski season!

We had a very stylish and pleasant time.I would like to stay there again. Thank you very much.

A great place to come together with friends

It was easy to come and go by shuttle bus from the slopes, so the room was very beautiful because it was newly built.The owner contacted us very quickly, friendly, and easy to understand.

We had a very pleasant and comfortable stay without any inconvenience. Thank you so much!

Everything was as pictured, and the host responded quickly and had a great stay.The room was warm and we had a comfortable stay.Thank you very much!I was concerned that the bath was very cold, the water pressure in the shower was weak, and the smell of sewage was slightly up.We decided to go to the hot springs, so there was no problem, but please refer to those who stay in the future.(There is floor heating in the dressing room, but it was too cold in the winter.I don't think it's a problem in the summer!)

Access to the western Kawahara of Kusatsu Onsen was very close, and it was also within walking distance from the inn to Yubatake.The bath at the inn was also very good in the hot springs.Very well cleaned, full amenities, and the beds are great.It was usually just futons and sheets, but I was happy that there was a blanket.The kitchen was also beautiful.We had a great time!Thank you! I'm sure I'll be here again

Beautiful house, we felt right at home. The house was far from neighbors and have plenty of privacy and space. Fireplace was magical and kitchen was both clean and functional. The host is always responsive and ensure are stay during winter was warm and comfortable. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

This place was above and beyond what we were hoping for!! The staff was amazing from our driver who picked us up from the station to Estelle who greeted us and showed us around plus the whole team who were great communicators through Airbnb. The house was so cozy and clean with all the amenities we needed plus the welcome gifts and treats were great. The house was close to the Gondola and we had all the links to purchase everything we needed from lift tickets, rentals, food, shuttle service and train tickets. The town is adorable and fun to walk around and the snow was amazing. We loved the view from our house and had the best time at Nozawaonsen!! We would 100% come back and stay with you guys again :))

Very nice home, konbini and grocery store right next to the unit. Host had very clear instructions and unit was easy to find.

Our stay in this beautifully designed Airbnb was fantastic. The attention to detail, especially the stunning doors, made the space feel warm and welcoming. The house was easy to heat, though the kerosene smell took a bit of getting used to. A car is definitely recommended. While centrally located, it’s about a 3 km walk to the Akakura restaurant area. Driving made accessing the slopes and dining spots much easier. The beds were extremely comfortable and warm, ensuring great sleep. The small kitchen was well-equipped—we made noodle stir-frys, salmon poke bowls, pancakes, and scrambled eggs with ease. Overall, this was a super comfortable stay, and we’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Myoko Kogen. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay again!

First time staying in this kind of cabin, the location was slightly further away, but a great place to spend a holiday

It was nice that the room was clean.It was very good with a Nintendo Switch and a large monitor.

Super fun and unique experience. Hosts were extremely responsive and helpful!!

From the moment I arrived, everything was smooth and easy. The place was sparkling clean, beautifully decorated, and had all the amenities I could ask for. The kitchen/ living space was fantastic!! Also the bath! Overall, this was one of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve had, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, hassle-free stay.

Lovely home and decor, we really enjoyed our stay. Two things I wished it had: 1. proper gaurds along staircase and second floor corridor as the wide gaps on the railing means a baby / small child could easily fall through, so we had to keep a close eye on our baby at all times; and 2. a dishwasher would have been very much appreciated!

I enjoyed it very much.Great! Thank you so much.

My family and I had a wonderful time at Tani House. The host welcomed us personally and gave us lots of tips for restaurants and things to do in the area. She was always available if we had additional questions or requests. As for the house, although it is an old traditional house, the beautiful renovation makes it so it is very comfortable and offers any facility you may need. It was a joy to spend time in the house and its design. A plus was the river that was perfect for swimming and only a 3 minute walk. It is perfect for exploring both the Yuzawa and the Tokamachi area. Highly recommend staying here.

I almost don’t want to publish this review for the fear that this place will not be available if the word gets out. This place is perfect. Host was very polite and professional. House was immaculate. Host had the heat turned prior to our arrival. Everything was in perfect condition. We didn’t walk around but it’s in a good location. 4 minutes from Ski resort. I have no negatives to say about this stay.
