Take a local bus and you are about 10 minutes or so from the lodgings. Can also schedule a pickup and drop off ahead of time, but it only happens at certain intervals. The living room space does get cold in the evening and nights for fall and winter. The food provided for cooking were good cuts of meat and nicely prepared for you to grill and cook. Place was clean and spacious, lovely view of Mt. Fuji, and staff was friendly and helpful.
