SnowDog Village summer activities and events

Updated: Aug 25, 2021

It's a dogs life at SnowDog Village in Niseko - Dine at Upashi Seta and then SUP along the Shiribetsu River and then a stay at Snowdog Village Niseko with Vacation Niseko followed up with home dining by Niseko Gourmet in your beautiful self-contained apartment that is dog-friendly 🤤!

These are just some of the ways we have been attracting the local domestic market to stay with us by differentiating ourselves from the rest of the hotel market in Niseko. Although it has been tough with managing this through covid we have seen a continued rise of guests staying at SnowDog Village and we are slowly getting a great reputation for domestic summer residences to add to the five star ratings we received from our international winter guests as well. Below are some of the initiatives we have implemented for this summer and autumn.
