[Shut Down] Kumane-so

Kumane-so (熊嶺荘) is a small-sized long-established onsen ryokan founded in 1966. Most anglers and hikers use it. An entrance fee to the bath facility is JPY 500. A staying is possible, too, and meals using mountain vegetables and game meats have a good reputation. Unfortunately, they closed down in November 2015. This article before closing is as follows.

There are 1 outdoor bath and 1 indoor bath at a public bathhouse. The old bathhouse is not large but cozy. The bathhouse for women is smaller than the bathhouse for men. Because there is not an outdoor bath for women, the women can go in or go out freely through a silver door. Men is prohibited to go in or go out.

The indoor bath surrounded by rocks is the size that about 6 people can take a bath, and uses 100% free flowing hot springs. Because the fresh hot springs always flow from the bath to a water outlet, the hot spring ingredients are precipitating on the surface of the bath and the bath floor, and those looks like small Pamukkale. The hot spring ingredients is too rich, and a hose for the hot springs turn into stone. Because I sae a touch of sands when I touched the bath, I admired a blessing of the earth was great. The indoor bath has a faucet for cold water, so it is allowed to add the water for lowering the water temperature.

The outdoor bath surrounded by rocks is the size that about 3 people can take a bath, and uses 100% free flowing hot springs. It is colder than the indoor bath, so the bathers may feel cold in a winter. Because there is not the outdoor bath at the bathhouse for women, they can take a bath at the outdoor bath for men. A gazebo is built on the outdoor bath, so a sense of openness can not be felt, but a view is very good. Bathers can enjoy a scenery facing the Nodaoi River and Goryo Bridge. Cherry blossoms can be enjoyed in a spring, fresh green can be enjoyed in a summer, fall foliage can be enjoyed in an autumn and snow can be enjoyed in the winter.

The hot springs are sodium chloride spring, and are slightly opaque and light yellow and have a little salty taste and metallic taste smell. The sum total of the hot spring ingredients are 4.067 g/kg. Shampoos and body soaps are provided at the bathhouse. Because there is not a restroom at a drresing room, you should have a wash beforehand. A free hair dryer is provided at the dressing room.
