Komatsu-no-yu - Higashine

It was hot when I entered after a long time. I wonder if it was so hot. Higashine Onsen where the hot water is just dark yellow. I like this hot water!

Yamagata Prefecture has hot springs like Kirasei. Komatsu-no-yu at Higashine Onsen in Higashine. Komatsu-no-yu is a hot spring that is located next to Komatsu, an inn business. Facilities such as sauna, indoor bath, and open-air bath are fully equipped, and maintenance is good and clean. Maybe it has a lot of iron, it is a thin sepia-colored hot water, and it is a hot and smooth hot water. It comes with shampoo and body soap, and I put it in with a towel for about 400 yen. I put it in comfortably.

It is a light-colored, smooth hot water. The indoor bath is slightly hot and just right, and the open-air bath is hot, so I think it's good. Valuables lockers are free and don't require coins.

On Wednesday, October 13, 2021, I went to Higashine Onsen "Komatsu no Yu" in Higashine City, Yamagata Prefecture ♨️ The color of the hot water was a little brown. (I went to another hot spring around here, but it was the same) There were two indoor baths, one open-air bath, and a sauna ♨️ The impression is neither good nor bad and is normal! The temperature is a little hot! The amount is 400 yen ?

[Caution! A public bath where regulars who don't need rules go crazy] Visited on March 12, 2022 with opening hours. I come at a pace of about once every one or two weeks. If you come early, is it an egg shop? Put something that looks like a hot spring egg on the left side of the entrance (see photo). 【business hours】 It is open at 6:00, but at this time it opened around 5:55. It's still chilly, so I'm grateful to put it in as soon as possible. 【Amount of money】 The bathing amount is "400 yen per adult" and "250 yen per child". There is also a coupon ticket. 【hot spring】 There are three types of hot springs: "two types of indoor baths," "open-air baths," and "saunas." The sauna is available from 15:00 to 21:00 on weekdays and from 11:00 to 21:00 on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays (from the official website). In the bathroom, detailed rules such as "silent bath" and "wash your body with body soap before bathing" are written. [Customer service] Especially normal. In the morning, I was handled by myself. It seemed to be relatively busy. [Food and drinks] It seems that you can eat ice cream and light meals in the store. It wasn't open in the morning. There is also a vending machine so you can rehydrate after taking a bath. 【others】 There is also a massage chair and a relaxing function. [Regulars who enter without washing their bodies] This is the event that triggered this review. It is the case of "wash your body with body soap and then take a bath" mentioned above. ... because I witnessed a situation where people who seemed to be regulars took a bath without washing their bodies after undressing. "Do I have to wash my body?" "It's written on the poster, right?" I heard that "I'm a regular, so it's okay!" "I come every day, so I rarely see it. I don't want to be told by you." "Poster? I haven't seen that. I don't know!" "Where are you local?" "I'm coming in the morning and evening, so it's okay!" ... and a splendid reverse guile. I only said the same thing if I couldn't understand Japanese. I pointed out that it is bad to say that it is bad, but this is the situation. By the way, there were several people not only this time but also when I came last time. I wonder if there are many people who enter without washing their bodies. Isn't that the tendency as regulars? When I asked the clerk, he answered, "Why are you a regular customer?" I think it's a difficult problem, but I wanted it to be solid. "A bathtub where Jijii who hasn't washed his body in the morning and evening enters ... paying for it ..." How about this? "If you're a regular, you have to follow the rules even more, right?" Am I the only one who thinks? (The regular was a light tiger grandpa) [Overview] "A public bath with more regular morals than a shop" "Local hot spring facilities, good or bad" That is the final impression. You can relax more than a certain hot spring facility in Tendo, which is lively with many people ...

There are many Google reviews and reviews, but is it actually normal? Visited at 15:00 on Saturday. It seems to be popular and crowded. It only overlapped with the peak, but the dressing area is small and there are four shelves vertically, so if one person is in front of the shelf, three people can not use it and wait ... There are two dryers after the bath without cold air. If there are many people going up, this will also be awaited. You can use the sauna, but you cannot use it unless you bring a bath towel. Shower compatible without a water bath. The hot water is yellowish and transparent. My personal favorite hot water that keeps warmth. There are two indoors, one is slimy and the other is hot, and children can enter for a long time. There is also an open-air bath, and the temperature is about the same as the inside gathering. There is a built-in body soap and rinse-in shampoo.

I used it on a holiday afternoon. The hot springs have a refreshing feel that makes your skin feel tight (I don't hate it). If the open-air bath is hotter and you want to take it longer, maybe it's an indoor bath. There is a bath set storage area in the washing area. There is a rinse-in shampoo and body soap. There are 3 hair dryers in the dressing room. When I got up, there were about 4 people waiting for the hair dryer who had already changed their clothes. Those who are using it should give it up next if there is a little leftover, but it didn't seem to bother me so much. I don't want to get frustrated or dense, so I got wet hair, but I wanted to dry it with a towel in the car. It may be different on weekdays, but ... I wanted to increase the number of baskets in the dressing room a little more, or make them coin-operated and limit those who use them for a long time.

Thank you for the reasonable price. The provided rinse-in shampoo has a squeaky hair, but I am grateful that it is provided at this price. Of course, there is also body soap. There is a sauna but no water bath. Everyone responds with a shower in the washroom. There are two indoor baths, the larger one is wider and there are two jets that hit the back. Is the narrow one a little lukewarm? I feel that the water temperature is hot in both cases. There is also an open-air bath, but the open-air bath is even hotter. The hot water has a color between Gyokuro tea and Hojicha, and you can smell a faint sulfur. It wasn't particularly slimy or slippery, but it was always warm with hot water that was hard to cool. As of 2021, the water dispenser at the dressing room is stopped, probably to prevent infectious diseases, so you should bring your own drinks. Soft serve ice cream is also available for ¥ 300 at the hot spring corner.
