Located at the entrance to the hot spring town of Gake Onsenthe public bathhouse "Gake no Yu"has a reception area (or counter) that has a Showa-era feel right at the entrance.
It looks a little old and cluttered, butit's cleanand has a nice feel to it. The bathhouse is down the stairs ahead.

The trail goes down quite a distance. The discoloration on the floor tells us that many people have visited
On this particular day, we were able to have the place all to ourselves for filming, but of course, on normal days, youhave to be considerate and avoid taking too many photos.

You can use coin lockers to store your valuables, or leave them at the reception desk. Leaving your belongings with the reception desk staff is a touching example of Showa-era charm
It's really nice that every corner is thoroughly cleaned
The bathtub is on the smaller side, but the slightlycloudy water sparkles with mineral deposits andis a free-flowing, overflowing type.
It was a little hot, but the receptionist said, "If it's too hot, turn on the water while you bathe," so I went ahead and turned on the water while I bathed.The window was also open, so a pleasant breeze blew through, and I was able to enjoy the bath without getting too hot
Although the facilities are a little old, they have showers and sell towels and shampoo sets at the reception, sorecommend for a casual visit.
By the way, after bathing, my skin didn't feel tight at all! It was so refreshing that I didn't feel the need to moisturize, and it was definitely a hot spring I'd like to visit again
a great place for therapeutic hot spring treatments, offering both room-only staysand long-term accommodations, soa good option for a workcation!

I'm originally from Tokyo, but I've lived in Yamagata Prefecture for over 30 years now. I've become completely accustomed to the local dialect and feel like a local myself. I occasionally
visit neighboring Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures two or three days a month, supposedly to gather material for my blog.
I belong to the middle-aged group that absolutely loves cats, local sake, and local snacks. (My icon is my beloved cat.)
