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.
(Call first, reservation required) We are in Google & Apple Maps. We are approx 5 miles SE of Main St. Cortez. Although we look right up at Mesa Verde Nat'l Park, we are 23 min to the Park entrance gate. We send you some directions details also when you book.
We stayed at The Sunrise camping spot, and we got all the morning sun😀which was excellent for waking up earlier from the morning sun, and it gets noon and afternoon shade if you camping with a tent. Our host Robin was great! This location has clean toilets and simple showers with hot water(on demand heater). Super pet friendly property! Great location if you are visiting Mesa Verde! Nights are very, very quiet, unless derby or rodeo is going on. And vies of night sky is amazing! 10 stars!
We've stayed in the Hogan at Bright Star a few times, and will keep coming back! While rustic, the campground covers all our needs. The hosts are super helpful and welcoming, and the overall atmosphere is extremely quiet and relaxing. Amazing views in all directions, with spectacular sunsets and stargazing.
This was such a good place to stay! First of all, manager John really saved the day when we needed to borrow a tent. He was very kind and helpful and made sure our trip continued without a hitch. The amenities are clean and convenient and we really enjoyed the shared kitchen! Perfect if you don’t want to bring kitchen supplies because it is very well stocked! Highly recommend!
Located close to Mesa Verde National Park this camp shouldn’t be skipped! We stayed here for the Ring of Fire annular solar eclipse and we are so happy we did! The camp manager and host were amazing. They were so helpful, kind and answered all my questions before going. The shared kitchen area had fridges you could use, all the pots, pans and utensils, coffee pots, a grill and more. We had an amazing time and they even had a solar eclipse party that night with a live band. Would definitely recommend and go back if we’re in the area.
