The Stanley Home Museum and Education Center

Welcome to the Stanley Home, an early 1900's Colonial Revival historic home in Estes Park, Colorado. Built in 1904, this roomy "cottage" was the private summer residence of F. O. and Flora Stanley until his death in 1940. Our mission is to showcase the lives and enduring impact of Freelan and Flora Stanley by hosting interpretive experiences at the Stanley home. We plan to open for tours to the general public in the spring of 2021. In the meantime, please explore our website to learn more about how you can help to restore this beautiful historic home.
