Bathing & Water

Natural onsen water

Uses natural hot spring water

Outdoor BathNo

Open-air outdoor bath

Corroborated by a 2024 Kyodo News feature (「お風呂は、男女別内湯のみ」, no outdoor bath mentioned) and by two independent Google reviews explicitly noting the absence of a rotenburo (「露天がないのと」).

Indoor BathYes

Enclosed indoor bathing area

SaunaNo

Sauna room of any kind

Same 'two baths total, indoor only' description implies no separate sauna. yadococo.net and nifty.com generic aggregator listings mention サウナ, but as with KASHIKIRI these pages show boilerplate contradicted by the more specific Rakuten/Kyodo sources, so discounted.

Bathing Arrangements

Private BathNo

Private bath available for day-use visitors or hotel guests to reserve

Rakuten and Kyodo both describe exactly two baths total (men's and women's), with no third/private bath mentioned. This conflicts with a generic nifty.com onsen-directory listing that checks 貸切風呂 — but that same nifty listing also contradicts Rakuten/Kyodo/Google-reviews on 露天風呂 (outdoor bath) and 食事 (meals currently suspended), and reads like unfiltered regional boilerplate rather than facility-specific data, so it was discounted. Treat with some residual uncertainty (see gaps).

Mixed BathingNo

Shared bathing area for all genders

Policies & Services

DiningNo

Restaurant or dining open to visitors (not just hotel meal plans)

No dining open to visitors/day-use guests exists (day-use isn't offered at all). Even in-room meal service for lodging guests is currently suspended; stays are room-only (素泊まり) for the time being.

ParkingYes

On-site or nearby parking available

About

Takamine-so (高嶺荘) is a small minshuku in Norikura Kogen, fed by the milky sulfur water of Norikura Kogen Onsen. The bathhouse has just two tubs, one for men and one for women, both indoor, with no rotenburo or sauna, and the water is kept kakenagashi, running straight from the source with nothing added or recirculated.
