Probably the newest/cleanest of the free onsens in town. Onsen temp was more bearable/less scalding hot than others so that was a big plus for me. Going late is even better since you (mostly) get the place to yourself. (stayed there past 'closing time' and there were people coming in)

My favourite Onsen in the Village, after trying most. Free, clean and not too busy. A nice cooler one on the left and a hotter bath on the right. Next to the nice hotel Kayamotoya, where we stayed in the family suite, which has a beautiful garden out front (image below).

Hot bath, but bearable

This onsen town is good for hot spring and snowboarding facilities. There are a number of public hot springs in town and this one is one of the most famous hot springs.

Great hot onsen! Sometimes the snow can come in which makes it amazing!

Recommend time 9pm

Very clean, two different baths of different temperatures for those who don't like it too hot!

Free onsen, probably the least scalding hot in the area hahaha. I went around 8pm and there were maybe 6 people there?

Both hot and very hot pools which is handy

There was a little girl in the Onsen for men...
