Nestled deep in the tranquil embrace of China’s Snow Valley, the inn is located in Dongsheng Forest Farm of Shanhetun Forestry Bureau, Wuchang City. It stands across Yangcao Mountain from Snow Town, making it an ideal haven for travelers hiking through this icy wonderland. Unspoiled by excessive commercialization, it preserves the most authentic simplicity of Northeast China’s snow country. In winter, Longzhao Gou is draped in a silver blanket, with snow-covered forests stretching into a serene scroll under the clear sky. Throw open the window, and you’ll be greeted by the crisp snow breeze, while the soft rustle of snow falling from pine branches fills your ears—every view feels like a scene from a winter poem, brimming with the purity and poetry of an untouched snowy landscape.
The inn’s 15 guest rooms exude the genuine warmth of Northeast China. Characteristic heated kang beds chase away the winter chill, with cozy private two-person rooms and lively four-person rooms catering to different travel needs. The on-site restaurant is filled with the rich aroma of Northeast Chinese home-style cooking—crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside sweet and sour pork (guobaorou) and authentic farm-style dishes let you savor the full flavor of the region in every bite. For winter fun, you can immerse yourself in the vibrancy of the season: race across the snow on a snowmobile, enjoy a leisurely ride on a horse-drawn sleigh, or laugh through the excitement of snow tubing.
Nearby attractions are easily accessible. Shuangyan Ski Resort, just over 500 meters away, lets you experience the thrill of gliding across the snow. Changqing Forest Farm and the Snow Valley Changqing Station of Mangniu River Rafting are also close by, allowing you to easily explore the diverse charms of Snow Valley.
What truly touches the heart is the inn’s warm, family-like service. The 24-hour front desk is always ready to assist, offering free snow clamps and snow gaiters to help you enjoy your time in the snow. The innkeepers will light a bonfire to brighten the cold night and join you for a sing-along. Even if there’s a language barrier, they’ll patiently bridge the gap—and will even drive to help retrieve lost items. This thoughtfulness and sincerity let every traveler in the bitter cold find the ultimate warmth, turning their Snow Valley journey into an experience filled with the comfort of home.
"We stayed at Kuolanting Inn for two nights and had a truly memorable experience. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by three friendly women. Although language was sometimes a barrier, we always felt well taken care of. The hosts patiently used a translator whenever we needed anything, which made communication smooth and reassuring.
Mr. Gang was exceptional. Even before our arrival, he provided us with all the information we needed. He managed all our transportation—from Harbin to Snow Village and back to Harbin—and even arranged our transfers between Snow Village and Snow Town seamlessly. During our stay, he joined us in activities and recorded our moments using his 360° camera, which was such a thoughtful and special touch.
The lady who cooked for us was lovely, and every meal she prepared was absolutely delicious. We felt full, comfortable, and genuinely cared for throughout our stay.
Would I recommend this place?
Certainly,yes!"
