Seidayama Campground is managed by NPO GGG.
The site includes an administration building with a store, showers, and coin-operated laundry, a sanitary building with sinks and toilets, a separate toilet building, two cooking facilities, and a gazebo with magnificent views.
Of course, a full range of camping equipment is available for rent.
Free Wi-Fi is also available.

There is also a women-only shower building that women and small children can use with peace of mind, and there is a powder corner.

The campground is also attractive for its excellent views from the sites.
The terraced rice paddies of the Seidayama village below and the Shinano River and its tributaries that form what is said to be the largest river terrace in Japan are a sight to behold.
Beyond that, visitors can enjoy views of the mountains bordering Niigata and Nagano prefectures, Mount Yone and Mount Kurohime overlooking the Sea of Japan, and, weather permitting, Mount Myoko and Mount Hiuchi.

The surrounding environment also allows visitors to experience the beauty of each season as only a campground rich in nature can, with double cherry blossoms in spring, fresh greenery in summer, and autumn leaves in fall.
The surrounding area is unobstructed, so the star-filled night sky is also a highlight.

Here, visitors can enjoy a variety of hands-on activities by making reservations in advance, such as chopping wood, skewering and salting landlocked salmon, wood crafts, and rafting on the Shinano River.
