A bed and breakfast in an attractive historic building owned by an international family who understand English and can arrange tours with local artisans if you inquire when booking. They have discount coupons for Awakura Onsen and offer bike rentals for staying guests.

A ryokan with Japanese tatami rooms. Visitors can also enjoy access to their onsen. Day visitors to the onsen are also welcome.

A guesthouse with private Japanese-style rooms, as well as cheaper communal rooms. Both males and females share the communal room, but each sleeping area has a privacy curtain. The name "Motoyu" (元湯) literally means "origin of the hot water", which is apt as this is where the water for Awakura Onsen was first drawn. Guests can enjoy relaxing in Motoyu's onsen with pieces of local Nishiawakura wood pieces. Day visitors can come just for the onsen, and there is also a restaurant with a chalk board wall that kids enjoy (but anyone can draw on).

Located in the same area as the Ski Resort, from around Golden Week (late April) to fall, the area serves as a camp ground. You must reserve your spot by calling Awakura Green Resort.

Awakurando (a combination of Awakura and Land) is a rest stop where you can buy local souvenirs, such as products made from Awakura's Japanese cypress, Hinoki Beer, and foodstuffs. They also sell souvenirs from Tottori. There is a restaurant inside, as well, serving curries, donburi (meat over rice), tenpura, and other dishes. Many of their meals feature Daisen chicken from Daisen.

A schoolhouse-turned-multipurpose building, it houses Hat Shop UKIYO (帽子屋UKIYO), selling trendy and cute locally-made hats, Sake Urara (酒うらら) selling local nihonshu, and the Fureru Shokudo restaurant (see "Eat"), which also sells souvenirs, such as local wood products and the local Someya Suzuki organic cotton bags, as well as goods from Tottori and Shimane.
