Named facility records for Yugawara Onsen. Figures marked “Not published” are not treated as town-wide averages.
| Facility | Spring | Source data | Supply | Bath type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kogome-no-Yu | Mildly saline spring, according to the facility listing on Yugawara's official tourism site. Source: Yugawara Onsen; the current official page does not name the individual source used by Kogome-no-Yu. | Source temperature: Not published for Kogome-no-Yu. Yugawara's municipal supply-system range of 58.2–61.7°C is not substituted for the facility's own spring. pH: Not published. | A municipal day-use natural-spring facility with large baths and outdoor baths for men and women. The current facility page does not publish water addition, heating, circulation or disinfection conditions for each pool. | Day-use bath. A useful first stop in Yugawara Onsenba if you want a low-cost natural bath, outdoor pool, place to rest and evening discount. |
| Miyakami-no-Yu | Weakly alkaline chloride-sulfate spring, as described by the facility. Source: A spring supplied from Oku-Yugawara; the individual source name is not published in current official information. | Source temperature: Not published. pH: Not published. | The facility explicitly describes the outdoor bath as source-flowing. The indoor carbonated bath, mud-pack steam sauna and cold bath are separate features; the whole facility is not described as source-flowing. | Day-use bath. A grown-up-focused choice if you want an early start, source-flowing outdoor bath, carbonated bath and steam-based facilities together. Families should check the age restriction first. |
| Izumi-no-Yu, New Welcity Yugawara | Sodium-calcium chloride spring (weakly alkaline, low-tonicity, high-temperature spring), as stated by the facility. Source: A blended Yugawara Onsen spring. | Source temperature: Not published. pH: Not published. | The facility operates as a natural hot-spring day bath, and Yugawara's official tourism site identifies the stone bath as source-flowing. This does not establish that all outdoor and indoor baths are source-flowing. | Day-use bath. A practical choice if a station shuttle, sauna, large outdoor bath and longer opening window matter most. It is in Atami City, Shizuoka—not administratively in Yugawara, Kanagawa—and currently uses shortened hours rather than overnight operation. |
