8. What to decide before you go
First, whether to bring a towel. Yunosaka Kurume Onsen does not rent towels and only sells them, Yamatsubasa has no towels provided and rents bath towels, and Yushin-no-Yu rents them for a fee. If you bring your own, you save a few hundred yen per person.
Next, whether you want a family bath. Minou Sanso, Yamatsubasa, Sakurakan and Yunosaka Kurume Onsen have family baths, and Yamatsubasa’s are by reservation. Otogi-no-Mori has none. If you want to book a private bath with small children, check in advance whether you can reserve.
Last, closing days and the reception deadline. Bokusen-no-Sato is open only on weekends, Himiko Roman-no-Yu is closed on Mondays, Minou Sanso on Thursdays and the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays, and Yamatsubasa on the 3rd Wednesday. At every facility reception ends before closing time, so if you go in the evening, check the last reception time before you leave.
