Hidden Cottage is our newest cabin, tucked away in a quiet and beautiful birch forest in Balnaca Gros village. It was carefully moved from Alba county and is the smallest cabin we have, but it is full of charm, cozy, and chic. The interior is surrounded by old wood, giving it a warm and welcoming feel. Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen, a unique living room with a large sofa, and a bedroom up on the mezzanine level. The design of Hidden Cottage is perfect for relaxation. It has a mix of bohemian vibes and rustic touches, creating an atmosphere that helps you disconnect from the world and feel at peace.
Outside, there’s a large terrace where you can enjoy a barbecue, relax in the hot tub, or take in the view of the small lake nearby. The lake is perfect for a quiet day of fishing. Hidden Cottage offers a special escape in nature—whether you’re sitting by the lake, relaxing in the hot tub, or unwinding inside its cozy space, this cabin is the perfect spot for your next getaway.
Upstairs, above the kitchen, there is an open sleeping area that can accommodate up to two guests, featuring a queen-size bed. This open space creates a cozy and inviting atmosphere, and depending on your group size, it will be the main sleeping area we prepare for you. Downstairs, the large couch can be used for sleeping or napping and can accommodate up to two guests, offering extra flexibility for your stay.
The surrounding area of Hidden Cottage offers a blend of adventure and relaxation—explore the nearby caves, hike the trails along Crisul Repede River, or simply breathe in the fresh mountain air.
