Myoko Ski Out Onsen Lodge: A Traditional Ryokan with Redevelopment Potential

Hakuba Real Estate presents Akakura So, a traditional Japanese ryokan (inn) located in the scenic Akakura Onsen area of Myoko. The property is situated on a generously sized block with a gentle slope from the front to the back, offering views of the ski slopes beyond. A small town road must be crossed to access the ski lift. This property has not been operated for a few years and is ideally suited for refurbishment or redevelopment, with its location described as top-notch.

The ryokan offers a mix of traditional Japanese-style rooms, featuring tatami mat flooring, futon bedding, and shoji paper screens. Some rooms come with private bathrooms, while others have access to shared bathrooms and onsen facilities. A central feature is its own onsen baths, allowing guests to enjoy natural hot spring waters, with baths divided into male and female sections. It is noted that an onsen pipe currently runs to the property, but new owners would need to join the onsen association to provide supply. The atmosphere is designed to provide a true cultural experience with an emphasis on traditional Japanese hospitality.
