The cabins were super clean and cozy, completely surrounded by trees and tons of sun. I thought it was really cool that they run fully on solar power but still have electricity and wifi so you really do get the best of both worlds. The hosts were so kind and they even left snacks in the cabin, which was so sweet. Bathrooms and showers were impressively spotless and fully functional too. The entrance road is a little rough, but once you’re in, it’s so pretty, peaceful and serene, you won’t even mind the ride up.
P.S. I had no clue what a “Ganjier” was when I booked, did a quick Google later and was a little surprised, given I had my younger sister with me lol.

This is a little piece of paradise tucked away between gorgeous tress and mountains. Amazing view from the deck, and the pond is perfect for swimming. The cabin was neat and clean when we arrived. The kitchen is well equipped, and you can enjoy your meals with a view. The property is huge, and every corner is worth exploring. Overall we had a really great time here, and drive from 101 was quite enjoyable and well worth it.
