    This was a cool little place to visit and see how the family started their business and left it I guess to the county who now runs it. It was free to go in.  more »

    What a beautiful mansion, with lots of easy-walking paths. The view is spectacular, of course! The rangers are very knowledgable about the family, the house, the time when they lived, along with their...  more »

    Unique historical mansion built for an industrialist specifically for the funeral of Buffalo Bill. Immaculately kept up at the top of Lookout Mountain, it is free to visit and can be rented out for weddings, meetings, and other events. The house retains some of the original custom furnishings as well as architectural plans and the history of the structure. Really great place to drop in if you are in the area.

    Historic, stone mansion tucked in the woods on top of lookout mountain and a perfect place for an event!

    I love the Boettcher Mansion, the staff, and the amazing views, I have nothing but great memories at this wonderful place. When I lived in Colorado, I would make it a point to bring my friends and family to visit the Boettcher Mansion, and experience what the views of the Rocky Mountains are like from above the clouds, the wild life, and the home of The Colorado Arts & Crafts Society. Learn about Colorado’s history, and Charles Boettcher's family and social legacy. Make sure to visit the Lookout Mountain Nature Center at the other end of the parking lot, kids love it. P.S. The Wedding Shows (held several times throughout the year) are the best time to add yummy sample treats to your visit, I recommend it :=)
