The wide court that becomes a snow play area in winter
In winter the wide court turns into a snow play area, full of things to do - snowmen, snowball fights, sledding and building a kamakura snow hut - and you can keep an eye on the children from your room window. The ski resort right in front also has ski and snowboard rentals.

The bath, a man-made hot spring using bakuhanseki stone, can be booked for private-hire use, so families and friends can bathe without feeling self-conscious. Even with a small child along, you can take your time without worrying about other guests.
- •The bath can be used as a private-hire bath (it is a man-made hot spring using bakuhanseki stone, not a natural onsen).
- •Please confirm with the pension whether children who are not yet out of diapers may bathe; since it is private-hire, you can use it just with your family.

Overview
Oze Pension Tentoumushi stands at the foot of the Hotaka Highlands, close to a trailhead into Oze National Park. It has a reputation for handmade cooking: homegrown pesticide-free vegetables raised on a highland plateau at 1,000 meters, mushroom hot pot, and beef fillet steak. The bath, a man-made hot spring using bakuhanseki stone, can be booked for private-hire use so the family can take their time. In winter the wide court becomes a snow play area, and ski rentals are available at the ski resort right in front. With shuttle service and luggage storage for families with children, this is a welcoming place to stay.
This pension stands in Hanasaku, Katashina-mura, Gunma, at the foot of the Hotaka Highlands close to a trailhead into Oze National Park, about two and a half hours from central Tokyo. It is a highland lodge to enjoy in every season - trekking in Oze, climbing Mount Shibutsu, Mount Hiuchigatake, Mount Hotaka and other peaks, summer tennis camps and winter skiing - and its warm hospitality toward families is part of the appeal.
Dining
From spring through autumn there is an abundance of homegrown, pesticide-free vegetables raised on the highland plateau at 1,000 meters. They have a reputation for being sweet and delicious, and you can happily eat plate after plate of them raw. From autumn into winter, the house mushroom hot pot, packed with local maitake, shimeji and shiitake, is the favorite. At dinner, the beef fillet steak from specially sourced meat and the salt-grilled char are popular as well. It is a warming hot pot to gather around as a family.
Bath
The bath, a man-made hot spring using bakuhanseki stone, can be booked for private-hire use, so families and friends can bathe without feeling self-conscious. Even with a small child along, you can take your time without worrying about other guests - a real plus.
Rooms and Facilities
There are 10 rooms in all: 6 Western-style rooms, 2 of them with a bath, and 2 Japanese-style tatami rooms. Because there are tatami rooms as well, families with a baby at the crawling stage can settle in on the tatami with peace of mind. The whole building is non-smoking, and there are ski and snowboard rentals, sleds and a ski drying room. Shuttle service is available using the 14-seat Hiace van or the 23-seat microbus.
Snow Play and Skiing
In winter the wide court turns into a snow play area, full of things to do: snowmen, snowball fights, sledding and building a kamakura snow hut. You can keep an eye on the children from your room window. The ski resort right in front has ski and snowboard rentals, and discount tickets to the Oguna Hotaka Ski Resort are available for staying guests. During the snow season there are also changing facilities, luggage storage and shuttle service. It makes an ideal base for a child's skiing debut.
Oze, Mountain Climbing and Tennis
For hiking in Ozegahara, the pension provides a shuttle to Hatomachi Pass, and its shuttle plans for Oze and the 100 Famous Japanese Mountains - Mount Hotaka, Mount Nikko-Shirane, Mount Shibutsu and Mount Akagi - are well received. In the green season you can also hold a tennis camp on 4 well-maintained private clay tennis courts.
