Does Kussharoko Sauna Club allow tattoos? In a private bath
A cedar sauna, a spring called the Woodpecker’s Bath and a 170 cm miso barrel of Mashu groundwater stand together in the forest above Kussharo, and the operator only ever sells them to one party at a time.
There is no tattoo rule here because there is nobody to meet. The operator sells the building one party at a time: the sauna and the baths go out in two-hour day slots at 19,800 yen for up to six people, and overnight guests get the whole place from 16:00 to 09:00 the next morning, with all three bedrooms priced as a single unit whether one person comes or nine. The bathing set is an indoor hot-spring bath, an outdoor hot-spring bath, a wood-fired sauna with spring water poured on the stones, and a 170 cm miso barrel of Mashu groundwater as the cold tub.
