Marukoma Onsen Co., Ltd., which operates the 'Hidden Hot Spring of Okusapporo, Lakeside Inn Lake Shikotsu Marukoma Onsen Ryokan,' has opened a new activity area this summer called 'Lake Shikotsu Beach by Marukoma Onsen,' exclusively for overnight guests. Located on the shores of Lake Shikotsu, known for its world-class water clarity, this private beach space offers a new value for stays by blending the lake's natural experiences with the inn's unique hot spring culture. In recent years, global warming has led to rising temperatures around Lake Shikotsu. We want to pass on the comfort of this 'coolness' to the next generation. Rather than just being consumed as a tourist destination, we want guests to feel the overwhelming grandeur of Lake Shikotsu and work together to protect this irreplaceable nature. This strong desire led to the creation of 'Lake Shikotsu Beach by Marukoma Onsen.' Key contents include water play experiences, caldera lake hot spring digging, and a limited-edition 'Superb View Chairing & Beer' plan. Marukoma Onsen Ryokan continues to provide extraordinary stays with its rare 'foot-source' natural open-air baths and rooms overlooking the lake. Celebrating its 110th anniversary, the inn continues to challenge itself to create new experiential values.
