“Gorgeous small ryokan in a beautiful country setting with delicious and inventive cuisine”
+Mizumari is extraordinary! Superbly comfortable and welcoming, exquisite meals served course by course in our spacious suite (two huge tatami rooms plus dining and bathing areas), beautiful countryside to explore, generous offerings of free drinks and snacks in abundance. We loved sleeping with only the sound of the rushing creek outside our windows. Of many ryokan experiences, this is our favorite. We hope to return soon.

“An experience you need to have :)”
+Mizumari is truly an exceptional experience, and I cannot recommend it enough. This intimate ryokan has just three rooms, each with its own private onsen facing a mountain river , a view that feels like pure magic. The rooms themselves are spacious, beautifully designed, and stocked with everything you could imagine: alcohol, snacks, ice, ice cream, cosmetic sets, and skincare products. Beyond that, there’s also a complimentary snack bar in the hall and even a free vending machine. The staff at Mizumari are some of the kindest and warmest people you’ll ever meet. They created a one-of-a-kind experience for us, from the stunning multi-course dinner and breakfast to their thoughtful guidance through every dish. (Tip: let them know if you’re not very hungry , the dinner was a 12-course feast, and we were absolutely full to the brim!) Not everyone speaks English, but that was never an issue. With a translator, their warmth and hospitality came across effortlessly. The private onsen alone deserves its own mention , the most relaxing, restorative way to melt away stress and recharge. The location is also perfect. The ryokan is easy to reach with a train and quick bus ride (they also prov

“Worth the Splurge!”
+The location of the ryokan is nested the forest next to the Kawazu falls with the sound of the running river in the background, felt like we were part of this nature. We had the larger room with 2 washrooms, 2 outdoor onsen tubs, and one foot bath. Beverages and snacks were included, meals were fantastic. In their survey I gave them 11 out of 10 score. The most incredible experience and I will definitely recommend and return.
−All the meals were fantastic maybe a little less volume as we don't like to waste food, many times we had to forgo dessert. With that being said the last breakfast was western style which was less impressive when compared to the rest of the meals.

“First class experience of ryokan with beautiful private onsens and wonderful staff”
+A beautiful experience from beginning to end. Staff and facilities are absolutely first class. We stayed in room 5 and thoroughly enjoyed the foot bath as well as the separate private onsens. The sounds of the waterfalls and river next to our verandas was relaxing. Rooms are spacious and In room facilities are exceptional with a special mention for the Refa hairdryer. The proximity to Kawazu seven waterfalls was amazing only a short walk or drive to the start of the trail. We highly recommend splurging on this experience.
−There was so much food, especially at breakfast that we couldn’t finish eating it all. Some insects outside but mosquito coils were provided and we didn’t get bitten
