Firelight, natural spring water, and old Karuizawa woodland meet in every room at FUFU Kyu-Karuizawa Restful Forest. Each guest room has a fireplace and private hot-spring bath, while subdued interiors echo the trees around nearby Kumoba Pond. Restaurant Karuizawa Shion works with Shinshu ingredients and offers griddle cooking, keeping the evening rooted in Nagano after a day among the forest paths.
