[1 group per day] Starlit Sauna Hidden Private Lodging/20-minute drive from Morioka Station/Private Retreat Twinkle Stars

A short drive from the city of Morioka. Twinkle Stars, a lone rental inn standing on a mountain. There, away from everyday life, a special time just for them passes slowly. Outside the inn, there is a spacious, large wooden deck of approximately 350 m². This place has the unique sense of openness of the mountains, with the sky stretching wide. At night, you can slowly enjoy the endless night sky and the stars filling the sky. The city lights receding into the distance make the twinkling stars seem even more beautiful, which is one of the unique charms of this inn. At night, the area around the deck is softly illuminated, creating a special, almost magical atmosphere in contrast to the pitch-black darkness that envelops the surroundings. In spring, the cherry blossoms bloom, and the time spent admiring the scenery is exceptional. Surrounded by the sound of a campfire, the clear air, and the soft lighting, you can spend a moment forgetting about everyday life. In addition, we offer an outdoor barrel sauna that you can enjoy under the starry sky. The time spent "rejuvenating" in nature makes your stay even more special. Time just for us, without any interruptions. Spend a special night at Twinkle Stars, surrounded by the vast sky and a sky full of stars.

A 10-minute walk from central Morioka  On the banks of the Nakatsugawa River… An inn brimming with Morioka charm, available to one group per day “Oyakuen-mae”

Enjoy a timeless experience at this inn surrounded by the garden of the Nanbu family, the lords of the Morioka domain (now the Morioka Chuo Community Center Garden), and the Nakatsugawa River, which has flowed through the center of the castle town since the Edo period and is a symbol of Morioka. The strolling garden across the street, which can be reached in one minute on foot, is said to have been called the "Oyaku-en" because it was used to cultivate medicinal herbs for Morioka Castle. This house, located just in front of it, has a sign that reads "Oyakuenmae" and started offering private lodging in April 2026. We are renovating the 50-year-old building into a space that honors the past while weaving a new future. We will do our utmost to ensure that your stay is a relaxing one, with the concept of an accommodation that feels like a home away from home, where you can enjoy Iwate as if you lived here and want to return again and again.

A quiet, private rental accommodation surrounded by rice fields, where you can live in harmony with nature. It is a 15-minute walk from Shinkansen's Shin-Hanamaki Station and an 8-minute ride on the Airport Liner.

Discover Hanaikada, a peaceful retreat in Hanamaki, Iwate—a hidden hot spring town. Japan has many beautiful countryside spots, and I don’t claim mine is the only one. But here, you’ll find more than a traditional Japanese house—there’s the view beyond the door, rice paddies from the bedroom or porch, and the sounds of birds, frogs, and insects. The peaceful atmosphere and changing scenery are unique to this place. Even overseas guests may feel a nostalgic warmth.
