Grand Naturel Asama Heights Resort Condominium
Grand Naturel Asama Heights is a well-established resort condominium complex located in Tsumagoi Village, Gunma Prefecture. Completed in July 1993, this 6-story building (with one basement level) features 254 units and offers a comprehensive range of resort-style amenities. The property is equipped with electricity from Tokyo Electric Power, propane gas, municipal water supply from the town, and drainage is currently under investigation.
The complex is renowned for its extensive onsen facilities, including a large communal hot spring bath with an open-air bath, both of which utilize free-flowing source spring water (with heating, water addition, and circulation filtration). These baths are open 24 hours a day, year-round, with cleaning times from 11:00 to 14:00 daily (except Thursdays, when cleaning is from 9:00 to 17:00). A sauna is also available with separate hours for men and women. Other notable amenities include a year-round indoor heated pool (though note there are periods from September to December and January to April when heating is stopped), a sports gym, a karaoke room (available for a fee), a massage chair lounge, ski lockers with a drying room, a coin laundry, and parcel lockers. The property also offers two owner-only guest rooms available for rent. Parking is ample with 128 free outdoor spaces, and pets are permitted.
Strategically positioned in the Asama Highlands, the property serves as an excellent base for exploring the wider region. The summer retreat of Karuizawa and the famous hot spring resort of Kusatsu are both within approximately a 40-minute drive. The area is also within easy reach of the skiing and onsen destination of Manza, the outdoor sports mecca of Sugadaira, and the natural beauty of Yunomaru and Takanomine Highlands. An interesting local fact is that Tsumagoi Village is one of Japan's leading producers of cabbage, with vast fields surrounding the area. The closest major landmark is the dramatic volcanic landscape of Onioshidashi Park, a mere 10-minute drive away, formed by the historic eruptions of Mount Asama.
As per the agent's special notes, viewings of the large hot spring bath facility are available from 11:00 to 14:00 (on Thursdays only, from 9:00 to 17:00).
