As you emerge from a lane lined with Japanese larch trees, the two-story hotel with a white-and-brown exterior and a 30,000 garden comes into view. Bask in the tranquil scenery of frolicking wild birds and squirrels and the gentle breeze of Karuizawa as you enjoy a fulfilling day of tennis or cycling or perhaps a round of golf at the adjacent golf club. Traditional Karuizawa lives on at Kajima no mori.
