Adorable and charming onsen place; a must go if u are in yamagata area. Try to go early in the day and enjoy a stroll in the town and onsen at night. Amazing view when it's covered in snow during winter. We booked a taxi for half a day to take us around to Mogami river and then to train station - highly recommend taking this route. We do not speak japanese but we can communicate easily with google translate. Save us the hassle of managing the luggage and waiting for public transport under heavy snow. Highly recommend esp if you are travelling with elderly and kids.
