CannaCamp couldn't cultivate kush resort after national derision becomes a real downer

A planned pot-friendly ranch resort in southwest Colorado has been snuffed before it opened. The 170-acre CannaCamp resort touted weed-friendly activities such as hiking and fishing.

But a deal with the landowner fell through, and the marijuana-tourism company promoting CannaCamp announced Thursday that the resort won’t open after all.

The MaryJane Group, which runs marijuana-friendly inns in Denver and Silverthorne, announced that it hopes to find a new home for CannaCamp by 2016. Guests who already booked stays starting at $395 per person per night are being offered stays in the bed-and-breakfasts instead.

CannaCamp had a tentative agreement to operate on an existing ranch just outside Durango. But the deal fell through after the CannaCamp announcement last month made international headlines and became the butt of jokes on late-night TV.

#4 Actually an excellent assessment. I'd add a full time grateful dead wannbe band playing on the grounds nightly with light shows and a skinny dipping hot springs.

And $395 a night? Allow me to share the proper concept for one of their new "budget" rooms:

[right way right]

Any empty nesters in Colorado can open a “Mom and Dads basement getaway” all they need is a basement, weed, a bong a couch a TV and a game console. Weed just stimulates the brain in a way simular to doing fun activitys while actually doing nothing. That is what it does. Don’t forget the pizza.

People DO want to hike and fish stoned. And they DO all the time.

Fishing is a time-honored rationalization for knocking back a few cold ones ... or whatever.

It just feels like we’re heading down a path towards Sodom and Gangamorrah.

If legal alcohol hasn't gotten us there, legal pot won't either.
