With so many homestays in Beijing, how did this one become the hottest in Huairou District?

The term "homestay" originates from Japan and refers to small lodging facilities that utilize local idle resources, with the host participating in the reception to provide tourists with an experience of the area's nature, culture, and way of life. Unlike traditional hotels, homestays allow consumers to more intimately experience the local customs and culture. This emotionally resonant type of accommodation meets consumers' desires for "simplicity, nature, individuality, seclusion, leisure, and life experiences," becoming a new highlight and business model in the tourism economy of various regions.

As the capital, Beijing has seen rapid growth in its homestay industry in recent years. One notable flagship project in Huairou District is Baishanshui Fu. With its professional service attitude, superior location, unique decor style, and local specialty dishes, it quickly became the most popular vacation destination in Huairou District in 2019.

Superior location, away from the hustle and bustle of the city

Baishanshui Fu is situated in the most prominent location in Shuangwenpu Village, Liuli Temple Town, Huairou District, Beijing. Right at its doorstep is the famous Baihe Bay, surrounded by mountains and water, with lush greenery all around. It is within a 40-minute drive from attractions such as Yanqi Lake, Hongluo Temple, Qinglong Gorge, and Yougu Shen Tan. The mountain roads are all one-way lanes, ensuring safe driving while allowing you to enjoy the diverse scenery along the way. Its location advantage is one of the key factors contributing to Baishanshui Fu’s success.

Innovative design style, crafting exquisite guest rooms

The homestay operates 10 exquisitely designed guest rooms, divided into four types, with decor styles that blend the noble elegance of the East with the modern fashion of the West to meet the diverse aesthetic and accommodation needs of guests.

The stylish rooms that combine Chinese and Western elements feature Western macaron color schemes paired with Chinese-style wallpaper. The combination is harmonious without being jarring. On quiet nights, the soft glow of yellow lighting helps you unwind. The bright and cozy loft rooms are dominated by green tones, accented with touches of pink, offering both warmth and vibrancy. Open the window, and you’re greeted by rolling mountain views, allowing you to enjoy the fresh and elegant atmosphere of the forest. The softly colored modern-style rooms showcase a lively charm, giving you a sense of openness the moment you step inside. The simple and elegant Japanese-style rooms feature tatami mats, soaking tubs, paper sliding doors, and a unique tea room, reflecting the minimalist Japanese aesthetic. With minimal furniture, the space doesn’t feel empty. Sit quietly, sip tea, read a book, and feel completely removed from the noise of the outside world.

Unique specialty dishes, serving authentic cuisine

Staying at an inn isn’t complete without tasting local delicacies, and what makes this place special is that it not only offers genuine farmhouse dishes but also refined Beijing cuisine, Hunan cuisine, and Northwest Chinese dishes. Guests can also pre-order cold meals, afternoon tea, BBQ, whole roasted lamb, and healthy hot pot. Whether you’re here for a vacation, gathering, team-building, or a conference, you’ll find suitable dining options. During special holidays, Baishanshui Fu prepares seasonal dishes for guests free of charge—such as freshly made zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival and handcrafted flower cakes during the peach blossom season—ensuring every visitor enjoys a unique experience. These offerings satisfy your taste buds while also giving travelers the chance to enjoy planting and harvesting.

With the rise of more and more distinctive homestays, competition has become increasingly fierce. To stand out in the vast homestay industry, strategic planning by operators is essential. As the hottest homestay in Beijing’s Huairou District, Baishanshui Fu, under its professional management model, not only incorporates local customs and blends the charm of old Beijing into every detail, but also established its own supply farmland to ensure that every dish uses green, organic ingredients. It also provides guests with a place to plant and harvest, forming a complete service chain that integrates travel, leisure, and vacation. While authentically recreating the charm of rural life, it also allows you to enjoy a comfortable pastoral lifestyle.
