William Allen White Cabins, Historic cabins in Rocky Mountain National Park, United States.
The William Allen White Cabins are a group of buildings constructed in different phases in the mountains near Estes Park. The property includes a main residence, artist studio, two guest houses, and other structures built in traditional mountain architectural style.
A newspaper editor purchased an existing 1887 cabin in 1912 and expanded the property over several years with additional structures. The property later became part of Rocky Mountain National Park and received heritage protection status.
The cabins served as a gathering place for intellectuals and artists who visited and spent time in the mountain setting. These guests shaped the character of the location as a space for exchange and creative thinking.
The site is located in a mountain area with limited access that is primarily regulated by the park authority. It is advisable to check current access rules and visiting conditions in advance, as the buildings are part of a preservation program.
The property was the first site in Rocky Mountain National Park to be listed in the National Register of Historic Places. This recognition highlights its importance as one of the earliest protected properties within the park.
