We are a Japanese and Kiwi family who have worked in many different winter season jobs and are now opening our own lodge since the winter of 2018. We love snow mountains and snowboarding.

We stayed at the lodge for 7 days, we loved it! Hayden & Saki were wonderful hosts and we didn't want to leave. The food was fabulous and company entertaining!! Highly recommend staying at White Tree Lodge.

We loved everything about this home away from home! Our lodge was clean, well equipped and warm with plenty of space for us all to spread out. Haydn and Saki were amazing hosts, and looked after us so well with wonderful food, advice and transfers. Recommend you stay here!

We came to White Tree Lodge for dinner with a large group. Saki, Hayden, and their team were wonderful hosts and the food was spectacular! We were served rice, miso soup, pickles, assortment of shareable plates including katsu, agedashi tofu, pork, and chicken. Complete with brownie and ice cream for dessert. This is a lodge with a warm and bright atmosphere :) thank you!

What a wonderful way to spend Christmas week 2021! Hayden and Saki are fantastic hosts who made us feel right at home. We traveled with our four children (16, 15, 7, & 5). The lodge is right next to Tangram and Hayden was able to help us with ski lessons for our 7 y/o and lift tickets. The meals were 10 stars, kid friendly, and multiple options. We are so thankful we stumbled upon such amazing hosts. Our kids were upset about leaving (and so we’re the adults ;-) ) if you are planning to enjoy the snow in Nagano look no further than White Tree Lodge!
