Murasugi Onsen, Agano, Niigata
Chouseikan (Day Use)
A large garden bath with both heated and source-temperature pools
Property overview
Overview
Chouseikan's garden baths pair a heated pool at about 40°C with a low-temperature pool that the inn identifies as 100% source water at roughly 25°C. The layout is unusually varied for a day-use visit, and private outdoor baths can be booked separately. The inn can turn away day visitors when closed or busy.

How ryokan meal plans workLocation & access
Check the last leg of the journey.
About 10 minutes by car from Yasuda IC. Without a car, take an Agano City bus from Suibara Station; the journey is about 27 minutes, but check the service calendar and return timetable. The inn's free shuttle from Niigata Station is an overnight-stay option, not standard day-use transport.
