Veteran Fishing Group

We had an absolute amazing time at the End of the Road Ranch! The pictures don't do it justice. It's absolutely beautiful and offered an excellent retreat for our group of veterans for our fishing trip. John Kelly was great from beginning to end to work with and offered an experience that our group was grateful for and will never forget.

Amazing and Magical Stay

End of the Road Ranch was the perfect venue for our family gathering to celebrate a graduation, a birthday, a wedding anniversary and even a wedding proposal. We loved Kelly, his dog, his property and his stories. We especially enjoyed our meals and evenings at the firepit, the long hikes into the canyon, the cool plunge/sauna cabin and the waterhouse shower!! Thank you for an amazing trip - we will never forget it!

Pure serenity!

This place is full of rustic charm, beautiful scenery, cozy nooks and stories - whether told by Kelly himself, through his vast library of books or the gallery of photographs taken by Kelly in each cabin. Our family of 10 had the most amazing stay. Highlights for us included the sauna cabin located right on the creek, cold plunge pond, the spa-like Waterhouse cabin and walking the trails through the canyon and along the creek. Kelly was the best host who became a fast family friend. His passion, work ethic and vision left us all inspired. Thank you for the memories!

A picturesque Colorado Mountain retreat

The End of Road Ranch gave my mom the most magical birthday she could dream of. My 2 year old was in absolute heaven between the hiking, the horses, s’mores by the campfire and the river to throw rocks into. We all got the chance to slow down, connect and have a beautiful mountain retreat that we will never forget. Thank you to John Kelly for building this amazing place and opening it up for us to stay. We all left completely inspired!

Memorable times

Two families and an intimate wedding in idyllic surroundings. End of the Road and John Kelly provided a pastoral backdrop with open fields, rumbling creek, Mountain Views, magic light, access to trails, stunning individual cabins. We brought good food, drink, music and caring open minds . It is work to create our own wedding venue but for us that was part of the fun. The result exceeded all expectations and etched forever memories laced with laughter and comraderie and many many wondrous moments including the plunge pool. We’ll be talking about the experience forever more….

Great private ranch property

We stayed at the ranch to celebrate a family wedding, and the setting could not have been more perfect. John welcomed us and showed us around, and then we had the place to ourselves. Nobody wanted to leave! This is a gorgeous place to unwind and reconnect. We especially enjoyed the sauna cabin and the plunge pond!

This was an amazing place to unwind after the holidays. You can’t help but feel at peace in this serene environment. The time, love and energy that John Kelly has put into his home does not go unnoticed. Everyone in our group was blown away by the beauty of the surrounding area and the craftsmanship of the entire property. His home is truly a gem and I feel lucky that we got to experience it for a few days. Thank you for a lovely stay! We could not have asked for a better place and our expectations were far exceeded.

Loved everything about our visit out to the End of the Road Ranch!!!!

This property is magical, everywhere you look the attention to detail is beyond words. Our time at the ranch was peaceful and relaxing and there was no reason for us to leave once we arrived. There is beauty at every turn and we found ourselves in awe of it all. We hiked the property and played in the creek, cooked over open fire (Thanks to owner Kelly) and in the well equipped kitchen, relaxed in the Waterhouse spa cabin, enjoyed the beautiful horses, and of course the owners dogs too. Kelly, the owner shared so many fascinating stories and his love of the ranch, life and people and we feel grateful for the opportunity to have stayed in such a magical place. I know we will back as this place truly is paradise. Thank you Kelly for everything and for creating and sharing this magical ranch!!!

A Magical Place

End of the Road Ranch is a magical place, made more magical by the owner John Kelly. The sprawling property nestled into the mountains is perfect for getting away from it all, whether with a few people or for a family gathering - like mine was. There's several outdoor activities to do on the ranch so you never have to leave. You can also relax in one of the several cabins, all of which have their own unique character. You'll reluctantly leave feeling recharged, refreshed, and ready to plan your return trip back to the ranch. John Kelly was extremely accommodating and enjoyable during our stay and during my family's shenanigans. His knowledge of and passion for the property and the world in general is an extra gem that you'll get to enjoy while staying on his ranch. End of the Roach Ranch is a very special place that my family and I are looking forward to returning to. Thank you for sharing your place with us, John Kelly!

End of the Road Ranch beauty!

End of the Road Ranch provided the escape that replenished the soul. We had 8 adults 3 toddlers. Each cabin provided a retreat. The family enjoyed the beauty of the ranch with no desire to return to town. We spent the days hiking, playing games and having fun. Lt John Kelly made us feel at home. He is an excellent host. The years of improvements of the ranch showed the love put into the property. Thank you for a wonderful time. We would be renting this again.

This is our second visit to the Ranch and enjoy every minute of it. Time flies doing nothing or doing everything! The sounds of the river are relaxing and soothing. The property is beautiful and fun to explore or just a joy to view. Its always a pleasure to chat with the owner, Kelly, who makes you feel right at home. Our dog loves visiting the horses but I can't say the horses feel the same!

What an amazing experience!

This was absolutely the best family vacation my family and I have ever been on. Actually, I think it's the best vacation I have EVER been on! The property is unbelievably perfect in every way. The river, the cabins, the open spaces, I can't believe that we got the chance to stay here for five nights. Kelly was also the most gracious host. He spent time showing and telling us all sorts of things cabin, art, photography and sports related. He also made several regional destination recommendations that all turned out to be top notch. I would 100% recommend this property to anyone who wants to get away from it all. Even if you never leave the property, which I highly recommend, you will leave feeling refreshed and soothed from the ranch, the air and mr. Kelly himself. The Allreds

Paradise on Earth

Pictures do not do this place justice. I didn't think places like this existed. You know you found a great place when your Colorado Born and Bred relatives are blown away by the place picked out by their Illinois flatland relatives. This place should be on everyones Bucket List. A true experience like no other. All the great stuff other reviewers have posted is spot on, if not an understatement. We shall return someday. This is a perfect place to bring a group of friends or families where you can all hang yet still have private time and your own space. Now if only I can win the Powerball and then convince Kelly to let me buy the place someday from him! It's unreal what he has created here.

Lieutenant Kelly went above and beyond to make our Wedding magical!

Words can not even begin to describe how HIGHLY we recommend End of The Road Ranch! This is our second review and second stay at End of the Road Ranch and as with our first stay, was beyond our wildest imagination. But this visit was particularity special as we got to share the ranch with 24 of our closest friends and family for our Wedding! Per usual the property owner, Lieutenant Kelly, went above and beyond to make our big day magical. He spent countless hours preparing the property for our Wedding, grooming the ranch to make it picture perfect, provided catering recommendations, and even connected us with the photographer we ended up using, Charles Engelbert (who we also highly recommend.) Kelly even let us coordinate a pre-trip to plan the big day with our vendors ahead of time. The property itself is exquisite and Kelly has poured his heart and soul into End of The Road Ranch; and you can tell in the details of this one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Whether you're looking for a couple's retreat or your next event, End of The Road Ranch is sure to satisfy and exceed your dreamiest expectations to the full extent of the phrase. Much love to Kelly and Toni! - Caleb and Alex

We stayed at the ranch at the end of August and had an amazing time. Kelly was the perfect host - we loved chatting with him about the story of the ranch, his art, books, photography, and music.
