Yumenoki: A Lodge with Teppanyaki & Wine

We stayed here as a couple.We made a Reservation because we were looking for an Accommodation where we could relax around Lake Yamanaka, and it turned out to be even better than we expected.What we loved- The grilled rainbow trout at dinner was excellent. We don’t often get the chance to eat it, and it was especially memorable among all the dishes.- The wine-fed beef tenderloin was very tender and cooked perfectly. The garlic grilled rice ball we ordered as an extra was also a great choice.- Breakfast was just as enjoyable, with freshly made hot sandwiches and handmade soba. The soba had a wonderful aroma that really stood out.- The Room and bath were spotless and comfortable. Even details like the placement of outlets were convenient, and we could feel the thoughtful care throughout.- We were happy to have a view of Mt. Fuji from our Room.- Above all, the owner and his wife were truly lovely people. They welcomed us warmly and also told us about Myojinyama Panorama Terrace (mentioned below).The next morning, we visited Myojinyama Panorama Terrace as recommended, and enjoyed an amazing view overlooking both Mt. Fuji and Lake Yamanaka—one of the highlights of our trip. We suggest going a bit early, ideally by around 9:00 a.m., since parking is limited and it gets crowded.Everything—from the food to the scenery to the hospitality—was highly satisfying, and on our way home we kept saying how glad we were that we chose this place.We highly recommend this Accommodation for anyone who wants to spend a relaxing time in Lake Yamanaka. We’d love to visit again in another season.

Since it was a weekday Thursday stay, we were the only two guests and enjoyed a quiet stay. The meals, including appetizers, rainbow trout, and wine beef, were all exceptionally delicious and paired perfectly with the red wine we ordered by the bottle. Breakfast featured delicious sandwiches served on a single plate; although it seemed like a large portion at first, we managed to finish everything. In the morning, the weather was excellent, allowing us to enjoy a close-up view of snow-capped Mount Fuji for a truly pleasant stay. Thank you very much!
