Kokumin Shukusha Enasansou

The location is quiet and easily accessible, offering a chance to experience being one with nature. The hotel is clean, tidy, and comfortable. Lake Hoko is within walking distance during the day, where various activities can be enjoyed. It's a great place to connect with nature. The breakfast was also quite good.

I followed the navigation system's instructions from Magome to Ena Sanso. It was fine until I got to Chukyo Gakuin University, but after that, the mountain road became winding and dark, making for a worrying journey. Finally, I came to a section of the mountain road that was overgrown with trees and only wide enough for one car to pass, where a roadblock was posted. The road might have collapsed. I had no choice but to call Ena Sanso, and they said they would come down the other way to pick me up. I was worried they were taking so long to come, but they finally did. "Are those snow tires?" I asked, and I thought, "What?!" It took more than 20 minutes, with the lodge's car leading the way, but I finally arrived at Ena Sanso. The road was narrow and covered in snow, so I had to drive slowly around the curves for safety. The altitude is 900 meters. I was grateful that they took the time to pick me up and treated me so well, even though I was the only guest.
