Yoshiko-san is an amazing host! My husband and I loved our stay at the Nikko Cottage. Yoshiko-san was so kind to pick us up at the Tobu Nikko station. She's a local, so she knew all the great spots and would even give us tips about the weather (some days the winds get big and scary) and how to plan our sight seeing in Nikko. Location wise, this location is about five minutes away from Kanmangafuchi Abyss. It is about a ten minute walk to the Tobu bus line which can take you to Kegon Falls. You can also walk to the Shinkyo Bridge and the It takes about 17 minutes but it is such a beautiful walk and totally worth it. We also were able to go to a nearby onsen called Nikko Wanoshiro by walking 10 minutes to the bus, taking the bus, and walking another 12 minutes to the onsen.
