Property overview

Overview

Furuya says all its large public baths use spring water drawn directly from the source, with an indoor and outdoor bath in each of its two bathing areas. Day visitors have a short afternoon window, and ordinary day-use bathing is unavailable in winter. A ¥500 campaign ran only from May 10 to July 31, 2026, and has ended.

Bathing indications

The inn and local association list general bathing information for the spring type. This is not a treatment or beauty-effect guarantee.

Regular day use is 15:00–18:00, last admission 17:00, and is unavailable in winter. The ¥500 campaign ended July 31, 2026. On September 7 the inn was closed for maintenance, and additional September closure dates were published. The current standard day-use price was not clearly confirmed on the main official page; call before visiting. The two bathing areas alternate between men and women, and a single 15:00–18:00 visit does not guarantee access to both.
