Toshi and Megumi, who run the hostel, both speak English very well and they were extremely helpful with all kinds of useful information about nearby restaurants, directions, bus schedules, and providing for discounts on lift tickets and ski rentals. They helped make our stay a success! A small private room and bathroom in the hostel had everything we needed to be comfortable. Conveniently located to the Goryu 47 ski resort. My son and I enjoyed our skiing at both Goryu 47 and the Happo One ski resorts.

We stayed for a quick ski holiday at K's House. While the facilities are not luxurious, they are clean and comfortable and it is walking distance (1km roughly) from the ski lift and several restaurants. Additionally, the staff is very friendly and helpful.

Would definitely come back!
Ks house is in a great location, only 10 minute walk from the closest train station and also a ten minute walk to the base of Goryu Mountain. They have discounts for gear hire and the ski lift passes. Snacks, toothbrushes and razors are available to buy for 150 yen and the laundry is 300 yen to use for washing machine, dryer and detergent. Toshi and Meg went above and beyond with exceptional service. It feels so welcoming and they even provided a shuttle to the grocery store and a lift to the station upon the end of our trip. The bathroom and kitchen areas are very clean and can accommodate for everything you need. The beds are comfortable with sufficient bedding. There is lots of room to store your ski and snowboard gear. Overall we had such a comfortable stay and felt very at home. We hope to be back one day soon. Thankyou Toshi and Meg!

Fantastic stay.
Fantastic place to stay with very kind and helpful owners. Spotlessly clean,great kitchen and a spacious room. JR Train station is only 10 minutes walk. Great location for hiking,rafting and onsen. There is a convenience store in kamishiro or a larger supermarket in Hakuba. Toshi was very kind to give us a lift into Hakuba and then we caught the train back to kamishiro. We would love to come back in the winter too.

Amazing place highly recommended
The best backpacker I've ever been to. Nice hosts who went out of their way to recommend activities. Gave us rides to town and train station on several occasions and let us use bicycles for free to get around. Extremely clean room. Well kitted out kitchen and lounge area. Stayed in a twin room that had own ensuite. Air conditioning, tv and amenities were provided. I would recommend this place to any person traveling to the Hakuba area.
