If the timing is right, Yuki obasama will put some yuzu (citrus fruit) in your bath for a healthy and refreshing yuzu-yu (citrus bath). Amenities for bathing and for getting ready in the morning include a toothbrush, shampoo, body-wash, cleansing foam, and hair dryer.
About the meals

Depending on the season, enjoy sansai cuisine made with freshly picked wild mountain vegetables or authentic stone-baked pizza, or a barbecue at the lodge. The different ways of enjoying each season with a particular cuisine are the appeal of Yuki chan.
