This place opened just a year ago. Not so crowded and it's a place where you can seat and have a cup of coffee. There is a cafe inside the place.

Visited on June 17 2019. Free parking lot available. Although the entrance ticket cost 500 yen. It worth totally!! The 2nd and 3rd most famously ice desert were excellent. Small pizza rolls were great. The Mt. Fuji view was wonderful even the head was covered by cloud. Especially the hammock outside, it’s really enjoyable and comfortable, we could even fall asleep right after we lay in it. This observation deck for viewing Mt. Fuji is top 3 around Kawaguchiko Lake imo.
