Whether you are seeking a peaceful moment, wishing to strengthen family bonds, or looking to escape into nature, Weekend House Saiko is a secluded sanctuary where time moves slowly, allowing you to create memorable experiences.


Location
Located just about 5 minutes by car from Lake Kawaguchi and a 1–3 minute walk from Lake Saiko, our facility offers breathtaking views of the forest and Mount Fuji with the lakeshore as a backdrop—its greatest feature.
Cabins A to E are situated in the Kuwarubi area, while Cabin F and G are in the Oojihara area. Together, these two sites offer a spacious area of approximately 7,800 square meters, allowing you to enjoy a private vacation rental experience.


A Sanctuary of Calm
Listen closely to the morning hush, where the songs of wild birds rise.
On the terrace, the aroma of coffee deepens your awareness of this present moment.
Lose yourself in the rustling of leaves and the gentle sway of a hammock, a meditation in harmony with nature.
Deep breaths fill your chest, bringing forth an inner stillness.
Lose yourself in a book—liberate your consciousness.
Between the pages, find a gaze turned inward.
A slow stroll leads to brunch by the lakeshore.
Each bite savored becomes a moment of gratitude and awakening.
On the lake, the sound of paddles gliding through water—a dynamic meditation in a kayak.
Let the lake and your breath become one, bringing serenity to the heart.
Unroll your yoga mat on the terrace, greeted by the soft afternoon light.
As you stretch your arms, release tension and attachments.
Gather with family and friends around a fire, sharing warmth and the scent of toasted marshmallows.
A connection deeper than words.
Sync your breath with the rhythm of the wood-burning stove.
Let the flickering flames and the waves of your heart merge in evening meditation.
Look up at the starry night sky, converse with the universe.
Find reverence for both the vast expanse and your own smallness.
Choose to do nothing—embrace the profound mindfulness of simply being.
Savor the luxury of silence, the joy of just being here.


Lake activity
Lake Saiko, with a circumference of about 10 kilometers, is perfect for outdoor activities. On clear days, cycling or jogging along the relatively flat lakeside route is highly recommended, offering fresh air and stunning natural views for both casual participants and those seeking a bit more challenge.The high transparency and serene, mirror-like surface of Lake Saiko on calm days provide an outstanding environment for canoeing and SUP activities.
The lake remains peaceful at all times because there are no motorboats or sightseeing boats allowed, ensuring a quiet environment. Against the striking backdrop of Mt. Fuji and the surrounding Aokigahara forest, fishing is also a highlight at Lake Saiko. In spring and autumn, fishing for kokanee salmon (himemasu) and Japanese smelt (wakasagi) is permitted, while black bass can be caught during other season.


Around the lake
For a different experience, take a leisurely walk through the nearby Aokigahara Forest. Stroll along moss-covered paths at your own pace, surrounded by the soothing sounds of nature. This immersive forest walk provides a tranquil contrast to the lakeside activities and is one of Saiko’s unique highlights.
