Kibōbetsu Misono Campground: A High-Spec Camping Facility in Hokkaido
This property presents the Kibōbetsu Misono Campground, a high-specification, clean, and well-equipped camping facility located in the town of Kibōbetsu, Hokkaido. The site is a conversion of a former elementary school, offering a unique and substantial base for outdoor recreation. The land area is a generous 9,488 square meters (approximately 2,870 tsubo), providing ample space for development and activities.
The main building is a two-story wooden structure with a galvanized steel sheet roof, featuring a total floor area of 769.47 square meters (232.76 tsubo). According to the agent's notes, the equipment and facilities are all complete, including running water, a water station, a bath, a washbasin area, and bedrooms. A portion of the first floor has been demolished (242.35 sqm), though the registered floor area remains unchanged. An additional separate residential building is included, a single-story wooden structure with the same roofing, covering 49.11 square meters (14.8 tsubo). The property is located outside of an urban planning area with no use district designation, offering flexibility.
The area is part of the scenic Shiribeshi region in Hokkaido, known for its natural beauty and outdoor pursuits. An interesting local fact is that the nearby town of Kutchan receives some of the heaviest snowfall in Japan, making it a premier destination for winter sports. The closest major landmark is the world-renowned Niseko United ski resort area, approximately an hour's drive away, famous for its consistent powder snow and international appeal.
