Kelly's property is a slice of Colorado heaven. We found what we were looking for: a clean, safe, quiet place of beauty to relax and be inspired. The property contains many hidden treasures and your host makes you feel welcomed and secure. The trail along the stream is a revelation and the sauna and "water house" are gifts to all who value rejuvenation as part of a vacation. New Castle has good groceries and several decent restaurants so consider keeping your driving to a minimum in order to take in the full experience of the mountains and the sanctuary that Kelly's lovingly created here. One caveat about staying in the bunkhouse would be to make sure your party can navigate steep steps as there were three of them that connected the main entry-level sleeping area to the kitchen and bathroom and we were thinking that it was good to have reliable knees and hips among us for the 3 days we stayed. If you're fit enough to hike, you'll be just fine. We've visited the area many times due to having family here and can say this is a singular spot that we'll make a point to return to regularly. Thanks for everything Kelly!
