Rosa Muerta, California
Try a spot of very unusual 'glamping' in the form of this unique open-air dwelling in the desert near Joshua Tree
The brainchild of Robert Stone, a former punk rocker turned architect, Rosa Muerta is a unique open-air dwelling offering you the chance to re-frame and re-create your own world, if only for a weekend.
This minimalist structure is made from concrete blocks and has four rooms: a spacious outdoor living room with spa, fire pit and barbecue; a bedroom; a bathroom; and a small but well equipped kitchen.
Located just 10 minutes from the National Park the house is tucked against a rock outcropping just outside the edge of the city of Joshua Tree.
The property is at the end of a dirt road with no other houses on it. There are few other houses in the area with the nearest one 600 feet away, so there is a lot of privacy and open desert around.
You can bring some friends and crank up your amp or just listen to the silence.
