Tazawako Onsen Coliving is looking for enthusiastic volunteers for the 2027 winter season!
❄️ Location & Highlights
Located in the Tohoku region of Japan, famous for its world-class powder snow:
Only a 5-minute drive to the ski resort! Enjoy diverse courses suitable for beginners to advanced skiers and snowboarders, all while taking in breathtaking views of Lake Tazawa, Japan's deepest lake.
Plus, there are 4 additional ski resorts within a 1.5-hour drive, making it a paradise for winter sports lovers.
Experience magical snow-covered forests, relaxing hot springs, and the most stunning winter scenery of the year.
🪵 Cozy Mountain Living
Our coliving is situated high up in the mountains, so winters here are cold and snowy. But to keep things warm and cozy, we have a wood-burning stove where everyone gathers inside. While winter brings hard work like shoveling snow, it also brings a special closeness, long cozy evenings indoors, and unmatched natural beauty. Come experience it with us!
