Travelers looking for a glamping experience will be able to stay in custom Airstream trailers at new sites located near national parks or mountains in the US.

AutoCamp, an "outdoor hotel brand", plans to open a new location near Joshua Tree National Park in California this fall, as well as locations near the Catskills Mountains in New York State and Zion National Park in Utah in 2022. The brand already has campsites near Yosemite National Park, Russian River and Cape Cod.

AutoCamp Joshua Tree will be located in the town of Joshua Tree, nine minutes from the national park. Guests will stay in 31-foot Airstreams, which sleep three adults or two adults and two children. They each have a queen-sized bed and a sofa that converts into a second bed, a flat-screen television with cable, a kitchenette, bathroom and private firepit with dining area. The Airstreams are also equipped with air-conditioning and wi-fi. Guests can chill out at the Clubhouse, which has an indoor fire pit, a shaded patio and outdoor bar.

There are also hanging sofas, heated concrete furniture and places to lounge and relax, and the hybrid plunge pool and spa serves as a cool place to take a dip in the summer and a cozy hot tub in the winter. For those who wish to be active, there are complimentary bikes that can be borrowed. Weekly activities onsite include yoga classes, live music, s’mores bars, wine tastings with local wine purveyors and fireside chats.
