Lagodekhi Treehouses - Duende
Backcountry adventures in Georgia
Off-grid stilted tree cottages surrounded by forested hills, rivers, and mountains
If you find yourself in this remote corner of Georgia, you'll be thrilled to discover Duende Hotel. Although not high-end luxury, Duende’s treehouses are utterly charming and a perfect base camp for exploring the area. Each rustic-chic treehouse cottage feels authentic, with cozy wooden beds that look out over tiny decks perched above fire pits and hammocks.
Surrounded by century-old trees and lush vegetation, this nature-inspired off-grid getaway in the Lagodekhi National Park is the perfect place to relax and press pause.
As of 11/3/2023, the hotel is temporarily closed.
