We offer five distinct, handcrafted wooden cabins designed to blend rustic charm with comfort, each highlighting a unique experience that connects you to the land and its traditions. The Experience – Nature, Comfort & Authenticity Here, every detail whispers “relaxation and reconnection.” The cabins are built from local timber and set on gently sloping terrain, offering breathtaking views over Balșa Valley and the dramatic Măzii Gorges. Inside, you’re welcomed into cozy, well-equipped spaces featuring plush beds, soft linens, private bathrooms, and panoramic windows. Outside, shuttling between hammocks, firelight, and starry skies becomes second nature. Why choose us? Escape the noise and crowds—only birdsong, rustling leaves, and fresh mountain air. Breathtaking, unspoiled landscapes perfect for reflection and exploration. A harmonious mix of rustic ambiance and modern comfort. The Cabins – Warm, Characterful & Thoughtfully Appointed Each of our five cabins offers: Private bathroom with shower, sink, toilet, and soft towels. A comfortable double bed and space for an extra single mattress if needed. Ambient lighting and electrical outlets for convenience. Heating in cooler months to ensure cozy nights. Thoughtful finishing touches: bedside mats, local artwork, and essential toiletries. Views that invite you to linger—sip your morning coffee as the sun rises over the valley. The cabin interiors balance genuine traditional design with clean comfort, creating a calm haven to recharge after your adventures. Shared Spaces & Dining – Gather, Cook, Celebrate Central to our experience is the 72 sqm shared dining hall—a welcoming space for communal meals, small events, or quiet lone breakfasts. It’s fully equipped with: Dining tables and chairs for up to 60 guests Full kitchen corner: fridge, induction hob, sink, cookware, and utensils Bright windows and inspiring views Wall boards with information about local activities and trails Bring ingredients, or source fresh local products directly—milk, cheese, eggs, meat, and seasonal produce—sourced from nearby farms. Enjoy together or create your own retreat: from cozy breakfasts in bed to shared dinners with friends, or a low-key birthday celebration with fairy lights and homemade food. Outdoor Amenities – Relax & Rejuvenate Grill & firepit area: perfect for evening gatherings, storytelling, and s'mores under the stars. Hammocks & benches: set among trees and gardens—ideal for reading, napping, or simply being present. Playground for the little ones, tucked within safe eye-watching distance. Hot tub (ciubăr): a wood-fired wooden tub tucked on the hillside—relaxing soaks with views. Available per request, for a fee. Camping zone: tent-friendly space with stunning star views. Activities & Experiences – Slow Adventure Awaits Close by or easily arranged through us: Hiking in Cheile Măzii, Cheile Cibului, Cheile Glodului—wild, rugged and inspiring. Horseback & carriage rides: meander through forests and fields. ATV or Enduro tours on marked trails—choose between serene loops or adrenaline routes. Guided photo walks, birdwatching, plant walks—season dependent. Winter fun: sledging or tobogganing with snowfall (seasonal). Local Highlights & Cultural Gems Cheile Măzii: limestone gorges carved through millennia—easy to reach, unforgettable scenery. Cheile Cibului & Glodului: pristine and uncommercialized, ideal for wanderers. Dacian Fortress of Ardeu: perched historic ruins a short trek away—great for kids and history buffs. Nearby treasures: Geoagiu spas, Roșia Montană’s heritage, medieval Hunedoara Castle—all within day-trip distance.
