  Descrição

  Hi everyone,
  my name is Birte, and I run an inn, a small and cozy pet-friendly lodge in Madarao Kogen.
  
  After our very first season (2025–26), we’re excited to grow and improve, and we’re looking for 2–3 motivated team members to join us for the upcoming winter season!
  
  We are a German/Filipino-run lodge and the only pet-friendly accommodation in the area, so animal lovers are very welcome (⚠️ but please note this may not be suitable for people with allergies).
  
  Madarao has a really special vibe—an international ski community where everyone supports each other. It’s one of the reasons we chose to stay here.
  
  Our lodge has:
  
  17 rooms (up to 45 guests)
  A mix of Western beds & traditional tatami rooms (ryokan style)
  A friendly, social atmosphere
  We also have a rescue dog 🐕 named Okuchi (means “big mouth” in Japanese—but she’s actually very sweet).
  
  Location Perks
  
  International ski resort
  Strong local community vibe
  Easy access to Tokyo (about 2 hours)
  
  A Small Note
  We’re still new, and not everything is perfect yet—but we’re putting a lot of heart into this place. We’re looking for people who bring good energy and want to help make the next season even better.
