The best glasshouse Airbnbs in the U.S. for uninterrupted views

Sleeping under the stars doesn’t get more literal than this. Only here’s the catch: instead of appreciating nature while dealing with a rock or two digging into your collar bone as you lie your sleeping bag down, this unforgettable glasshouse allows you to lose yourself in the spectacle of the night’s sky while cozying up in a rather lovely double bed. Wheel it out onto the patio for the full en plein air experience, or sleep behind the only type of closed door that will still allow you to see the landscape from the comfort of your own pillow.

The views just don't look real, do they? This incredible glasshouse Airbnb in Utah offers breathtaking views of the Zion Mountains and really makes you feel disconnected from the world as we know it. The A-Frame cabin has glass walls to allow uninterrupted views, and a retractable door (think: garage vibes) so you can stay in bed and look straight out into the landscape. You'll have your own private bathroom and a mini-fridge in the studio cabin, plus an outdoor kitchen with propane grill, and basic cooking equipment and ingredients (salt, pepper, oil). A unique take on glamping. It will be hard to leave that view. 

This Luxe Airbnb in Colorado is one of the most majestic glasshouses we've ever seen. Considered a mid-century masterpiece by its loyal owners – complete with panoramic views of its own pond and beyond – this gorgeous home can accommodate up to 14 guests across six luxury bedrooms and 8.5 bathrooms – yep, the kids could even take the tub for the night in their new fort. For the main event, this glasshouse features wraparound floor-to-ceiling windows, a fully equipped kitchen with a breakfast bar, wine fridges, wet bars, home theatres, game rooms... You name it, it's got it. What are you waiting for?

This popular rental house is 100 percent off the grid. That means it's powered by solar panels for energy and hot water and there isn't a TV or fast WiFi. Trust us, you won't miss either of those once you see the view. The Airbnb sleeps four people in two bedrooms, so it's a great place for you and your pals to digital-detox and get to know each other better. Or, if you dare, bring your family and see if you can last at least one night without a fight. Stylish and sleek, you'll feel a million bucks staying here.

There's also a wood-burning Swedish hot tub. 

At more than $1,000-per-night, this Joshua Tree getaway is out of most people's price range, but that doesn't mean we can't admire the view from here.

No drywall between you and Mother Nature here. In addition to the views, this glass cabin offers two acres of land to roam including a nearby river with a gorgeous fire pit and seating area next to it. A fancy outdoor shower means you're never without a view, just beware of peeping toms. But, you're more likely to see an animal stroll by than a nosey neighbor.
