About

Bright Star Campground (formerly known as Camp Kush 4 Corners) boasts years of 5-star reviews on Google, Airbnb & Hipcamp! It is a favorite for its location, value, amenities and vibe. Free Wifi. We are a pet-friendly and a Cannabis friendly campground near Cortez, CO looking up at Mesa Verde Nat'l Park. This fun campground is not cramped and has amenities, cabins, tent, RV and Tipi sites. We also have two very affordable bunkhouses all with a buffer of land totaling hundreds of acres and big views. We also have a 2bdr/2bath "Starhouse" on the property. A central campground kitchen is stocked with everything you need to cook, even spices. Coffee, and often fresh eggs are included. There are hot showers, toilets, a dining and socializing pavilion. We have Ice for your cups or fill an ice chest for $3 - $4, complimentary filtered drinking water, and often snacks to purchase. It is a surprising value! You can reserve directly by calling us, or on AIRBNB & HIPCAMP. Some sites are only available by direct booking. PETS must be on leash or supervised. Fire Bans are often in effect due to dry or windy conditions.
