The Story of The Historic Stanley Home Foundation

Converting Flora and F.O. Stanley’s 1904 Colonial Revival mansion for public use by a non-profit organization has been a topic of discussion in town for some time. After all, it was from this magnificent home that the Stanleys worked so diligently on the development of Estes Park and its infrastructure in the early 20th century.

In the fall of 2016, a Board of Directors was formed, to found The Historic Stanley Home Foundation, which is a Colorado non-profit corporation and a 501 (c) (3), tax exempt organization.

The Stanley House, like the nearby Stanley Hotel, which it preceded by some four years, stands as an enduring monument to a visionary individual who through ingenuity, courage, and persistence found ways to harness the emerging technological forces of the twentieth century to make those dreams a reality. “The Grand Old Man of Estes Park” they called him, and rightfully so. From his time until our own, the influence of F.O. Stanley continues to be felt throughout the Estes Valley.
