15 minutes from Aso-Kumamoto Airport / Mountain hideaway / Entire building for rent / Over 120 m², 3 bedrooms, 1 dining room, 1 kitchen / Functional layout

MACOMO is named after "Makomo (true bamboo)". It is a plant of the Poaceae family that grows in colonies along the water's edge and is also called "Makomodake". Because it has a purifying effect on soil and water, it has been called "the grass where the gods dwell" and "the grass of fate" since ancient times, and is considered a sacred plant. It is used as a mat (mushiro) and a tool for purification in Shinto rituals such as at Izumo Taisha Shrine. We hope you have a pleasant trip to this inn. When you pass through the tunnel of autumn leaves (maple), the inn surrounded by trees appears, and the surroundings are very quiet. It is an area where birds (woodpeckers, cuckoos, thrushes, etc.) and animals (flying foxes, foxes, deer, hares, etc.) coexist and thrive. Please forget your daily worries and relax so that the birds are not startled. The tap water at Macomo comes from the beautiful water source of Shioi Shrine. The water is so popular that locals come to draw it, and you can use it safely for cooking and bathing, as well as drinking. Feel the abundance of nature! Once you arrive, refresh yourself with a walk in the woods or dinner using water from Shioi Shrine. Have a nice stay!
