This turned out to be a pleasant surprise. We arrived at midnight, and it was so dark we couldn't see the tiny 'P' sign for the campsite. We ended up parking at the bank's lot just ahead and dragging our luggage over, and my hands were freezing. Later, I realized the camp hotel had sent me a map with the location and room code – all that suffering for nothing! Luckily, the room was exceptionally clean, with a gas stove, microwave, and BBQ grill all fully equipped and neatly organized, ready for us to use. What was truly a special surprise was that the host had even pre-filled the bathtub with water for our arrival. The next morning, when I stepped outside for a walk, I discovered Mount Fuji right behind us – it was absolutely amazing! Many thanks to the host for providing us with such a wonderful experience. Driving to Oshino Hakkai the next day only took about fifteen minutes.

A bit far from the city center, but it's very peaceful and quiet, plus there's a large public bath for soaking. The environment is also extremely clean, and both the host and hostess are very hospitable. It's also very close to Shiratori Beach. Just remember to buy water or food at a convenience store before you arrive, otherwise the nearest one is about 1.5 kilometers away. The room itself is very traditional Japanese style and kept exceptionally clean.

劈柴Since all other room types were unavailable, we stayed in a 6-person room. It was incredibly spacious, and pretty much every room offered an unobstructed view of Mount Fuji (weather permitting). The bathroom was huge and even had a private onsen and a sauna. Each room type came with dinner (BBQ) and breakfast for two. The portions were decent, though don't expect too much from the breakfast. The location is great, very close to Lake Yamanaka's attractions, only about a 10-minute drive away. There's also a fairly large supermarket right next door, just a minute's drive, which was super convenient for restocking. However, due to the glamping site's location, you can't see the sunrise with Mount Fuji in the same frame. I had planned to wake up early to catch the sunrise, but it turns out the sun rises on the opposite side. Overall, aside from being a bit pricey, everything else was perfect. The staff were very nice, and their English communication was excellent.

Hotel Room: Features a built-in sauna, and offers stunning views of Mount Fuji directly from the room. Fuji appears incredibly large and close to the naked eye. The room decor is very tasteful.
Hotel Location: Situated on the lower-left side of Lake Yamanakako on the map. There's a bus stop right outside (though buses are infrequent). Within a 2-minute walk, there's a delicious hamburg steak restaurant. A 7-Eleven is about 5-10 minutes away, and you can rent bicycles near the 7-Eleven (the hotel also offers bike rentals, but they are mountain bikes, not electric, costing 2000 yen per hour or 4000 yen per day). If you walk another 10-15 minutes, you can feed swans in a designated area managed by locals (a family of three needs to buy one portion of swan food for 200 yen).
Cycling: From the hotel, it takes about 30-50 minutes to cycle to Hirano no Hama (there are many great photo spots along the way, so you don't necessarily have to go all the way to Hirano no Hama, where the wind is incredibly strong). I recommend cycling clockwise on the map and then returning the same way.

This was my first time visiting Mount Fuji, and I decided to experience a traditional guesthouse. I chose one closer to Fuji, in Lake Yamanaka.
Transportation: Very convenient, whether by bus or train. On the way there, I took the Fujikaiyu from Shinjuku, spent some time in Kawaguchiko, then checked the schedule and took either the A1 or F1 bus to the entrance of Hana no Miyako Park, a 3-minute walk away. For the return trip, I took the highway bus from Yamanakako Station (I bought tickets in advance, choosing the Japanese option to get this stop).
Environment: Lake Yamanaka is incredibly peaceful, with very few tourists. We stayed in room 202, which offered a view of Mount Fuji. Although the room didn't have a private bathroom, the shared onsen (hot spring) and shower facilities felt much more authentic! They were very clean, and the hot spring was wonderfully relaxing! Just note that the onsen closes at 10 PM.
Food: Supermarkets, convenience stores, and 100-yen shops are all within a 10-minute walk.
Scenery: The guesthouse offered electric-assist bicycles for rent. I don't quite remember the price, but the bikes were easy to ride and saved a lot of effort. I highly recommend cycling around the lake!
Minor drawback: The soundproofing wasn't great; I could hear the alarm from the next room at 4:30 AM.

The location is perfect, right by Lake Yamanaka with Mount Fuji in full view. Waking up, I could see Mount Fuji from inside the house, and the evenings were wonderfully peaceful and comfortable. It has a jacuzzi, two toilets and two showers which was great, and the kitchen facilities were incredibly well-equipped. Plus, there's a private parking space. I'd definitely come back again if I get the chance.

Jav CMy stay at the Fuji Marriott Hotel Lake Yamanaka was absolutely rejuvenating. The hotel perfectly captures the serene beauty of the Fuji Five Lakes area, offering a tranquil environment that feels incredibly spacious and well-integrated with the surrounding nature.

This place is very close to Lake Yamanaka, and its off-street location makes it very quiet. If you're driving, you'll need to set your GPS to Yamanakako Post Office. The staff, especially the younger woman, was very polite and could communicate in both English and Mandarin. The whole place is a traditional Japanese ryokan with a bit of history. Don't expect it to be brand new, but it's clean and tidy, making for a comfortable stay. We booked room 102 with a garden, and we were so lucky to see a clear view of Mount Fuji on our first day! It was truly amazing to see it from our room. The only minor inconvenience was that you have to reserve a time slot for bathing. There are two private onsen rooms outside the guest rooms. When you reserve a slot, it becomes your private bath, complete with a shower area and a small indoor tub. They also provide a full range of amenities, including cleansing oil and facial wash. Overall, it's still a great choice! Highly recommended.

From the room, you can see Mount Fuji. It is very fast to go to the shore of Hirano. If you want to see the morning sunshine in Jinshan, you can open the curtains to see the clarity of Mount Fuji today and then decide whether to go downstairs. There is a private bathroom in the room. The room is large and the hotel is not new overall. You have to carry your luggage upstairs without elevator. It takes7-8 minutes to drag your luggage from Hirano bus station to the hotel.
