Comments

Country Joe is a comfortable mountain lodge with a cozy atmosphere.

It is located right by the slopes of Tsugaike Kogen resort and you can ski down to the base to get the gondola... the gondola is literally 10 seconds away on skis or board! You can also enjoy commanding views of the Northern Alps from the lodge.

The lodge is small and the rooms do not have televisions, but many of guests come back here because of the convenient location, our delicious meals and our friendly services.

We hope to welcome you this season.
