SCOUT REVIEW
Not far from the Furano Ski Resort ski slopes is a collection of two and three bedroom relatively new houses called Momiji.
There are three, 2-bedroom houses that sleep five people comfortably and two 3-bedroom houses that sleep six. Master bedrooms have a double bed with en-suite while second and third bedrooms have a single and bunk beds.
Managed by Focus Furano (which is based at Phytoncide Morinokaori pension up the road) the staff speak various amount of English but usually enough to get by.
Each house has free wifi, TV (Japanese), washers/dryers and fully equipped kitchens so are perfect for a self-catering stay in Furano.
One of the best things about the Momiji houses is their location. They are a short walk up the hill to Furano Ski Resort and close to all of Kitanomine’s restaurants and bars.
Who should stay here
Momiji houses are perfect for families or groups of friends that want good value self-contained accommodation close to the slopes of Furano Ski Resort.
Location
Momiji houses are situated in Kitanomine village, about a 5-minute walk from the ski slopes of Furano. They are just down the hill from the Naturwald Hotel, where the shuttle bus from the airport arrives. Management can help organize a shuttle for arrival and departure.

About Furano
Furano is up there with the best when it comes to ski resorts in Japan. Offering a wide variety of terrain, lots of powder, a good selection of accommodation and a relatively authentic village and nearby town, it has something for everyone and will suit a range of tastes and budgets. Furano is a good mix of Western influences and comforts, and Japanese culture. The ski resort itself caters to all ability levels and skiing preferences, from advanced off-piste and amazing sidecountry (easily accessed) to long leg-burning groomed runs. Receiving abundant snowfall each season (up to 9 metres), Furano is a perfect spot to experience true Hokkaido powder.
