A restaurant or dining room open to visitors, not only meals for overnight guests
Google's editorial summary calls it 'a simple restaurant', but the official site's 2024/09/30 notice announced the end of lunch dining service for day-trippers, and a Sept 2024 reviewer also found the dining hall closed that day. Kept NO per the official notice (outranks Google's editorial blurb); in-house meals may still be served to overnight guests once the lodge reopens.

About
Daisetsu Kogen Sanso (大雪高原山荘) is a mountain lodge deep in Daisetsuzan National Park, sitting at around 1,260 meters and reached by a 10km unpaved forest road. The lodge has both indoor and open-air baths; the rotenburo looks out over the surrounding peaks, and the spring water flows fresh without recirculation. Its origins go back to a 1954 typhoon that felled much of the surrounding forest. Workers clearing the blowdown found the spring and built a simple shelter there, which grew over the decades into the current lodge. Emperor Showa stopped in during a 1968 visit to Hokkaido. The lodge has been closed since the end of the 2024 season.
