Secluded backcountry cabin on private road away from the hustle and bustle.
Kuroten
A perfect base for those wanting something away from the hustle and bustle of Grande Hirafu.

The Niseko area receives huge snowfalls each year in winter. While staying at this lodge, guests will need to do some snow clearing, including stairs and entrance ways. You must also snow clear the driveway yourself at least daily and on 30cm + days often twice.
We will clear the rest of the house approximately once per week (depending on snowfall) but you must maintain the driveway. There are snow shovels supplied to do this and it is a great warm up before you go skiing ;)

“Kuroten is situated in the Yunosato area known for onsens and just 10 minutes from the ski resort. The self check-in was easy and the entire cabin was warm & spotless clean. Although no snow for this trip, we enjoyed the morning run in the neighborhood and family game night next to cozy stove. Thank you Elsie and Chris for hosting, look forward to the ski season.”
