Let us go stay at a rental cottage! Choosing your favorite one is fun too.
Takasu-cho in the northern part of Gujo is called “Karuizawa in Gifu” because of its climate. It is a summer resort with a refreshing highland breeze in summer and turns into a snow resort with abundant snowfall in winter. It is also a popular villa area where you can enjoy the beautiful natural scenery and extraordinary life throughout the four seasons with many kinds of rental villas.
Each owner of these villas created their own characteristics for each building. Various designs and concepts are depending on the cottages, and no one is the same.
From compact cottages for up to 3 people per building to cottages that can accommodate up to 30 people, it is one of the pleasures to choose a cottage to stay in according to the number of people in your group and your preference.
