More than staying, playing. Spend 2 days and 1 night at Geospot Motohakone.

What kind of place do you imagine when you hear of renting a whole house? GEOSPOT MOTOHAKONE in Moto Hakone (hereinafter referred to as “Geospot”) offers hot springs, private saunas, gibier BBQ, and even activities with a local guide the next morning. It feels more like “coming to play” than "coming to stay. The three people who gathered here this time were nature lovers Makoto Tanida, Takumi Takahashi, and Kaito Harada. This is a report of their experiences during the two days and one night they spent together.

DAY2 7:30 I wake up slowly in the morning.

When I woke up the next morning, the sky outside my window was clear and cloudless. The fog from last night is gone and only the silence of the mountains remains. As the aroma of coffee begins to waft through the living room, I wake Mr. Harada, who is still lying down on the small floor. Good morning," he says. I ended up sleeping here instead of going to bed. When I came to, it was morning (laughs). (Laughs)" His favorite place, it sure looks cozy.

Breakfast is served on the comfortable deck. The three of us enjoyed the morning air with hot dogs in our hands, which Mr. Yada prepared quickly and efficiently. Breakfast in the sun is just too good. I'm completely sober now from yesterday's alcohol," says Takahashi.

The time is almost 8:30. I start getting ready to check out for the trekking I've been looking forward to. I was looking forward to the trekking. "If you come from Yamanashi or Nagano, the expressway on the way back will definitely be crowded," I said. But here, it's only an hour and a half from Tokyo. I think the charm of Geospot is that you can relax as much as you want without stressing about the travel time," said Yada, looking back on his time here so far. So, pack your bags and let's go trekking!
