[Yunokawa Onsen in Hakodate] Large Hot-spring Resort That Day Trip Bath and Long History Can Be Enjoyed

Yumoto Isaribikan

Yumoto Isaribikan (湯元漁火館) is a small-sized hot-spring ryokan facing the Pacific Ocean, and was founded in 1993. It is popular for an oceanview from an outdoor bath and delicious dishes using fresh seafood. It takes about 10 - 20 minutes from Yunokawa on foot, and is a little far away. A lot of woods are used for a building, and the warmth of the wood can be felt. A parking lot is in front of the building, and the Pacific Ocean and Mt. Hakodate can be looked over from here. It is so beautiful view. A staying is possible, too.

A public bathroom is small but cozy, and has 1 outdoor bath and 1 indoor bath. The indoor bath is the size that about 4 people can take a bath. Free flowing hot springs overflow from the bathtub made from cypress wood in succession. The bathtub made from cypress wood has a good atmosphere.

The outdoor bath surrounded by rocks is the size that about 4 people can take a bath. A view is very good and is just the oceanview. I talked with South Korean University Student that happened to be at the outdoor bath. He said "In the South Korean, there is almost not the oudoor bath. The oceanview can not be enjoyed. So he searched Isaribikan on the internet, and visited here". My body got hot by the hot springs and went ahead. But he kept seeing the ocaen at the outdoor bath. I think that the South Koreans as well as Japanese like Onsen very much.

The hot springs are sodium chloride spring, and are slightly opaque and light yellow-green and have salty taste and no smell. The sum total of the hot spring ingredients are 8.042 g/kg. The hot springs seem to be drinkable, but there is not a drinking hot spring facility. So I licked the hot springs, and it tasted salty very much. Shampoos and body soaps are provided at the bathroom. There is not a restroom at a dressing room, so you should get a wash beforehand at the restroom around a porch.
