Seventeen Mile House, Historic house in Centennial, US.

The Seventeen Mile House features a square log construction covered with clapboard siding, situated on a 33-acre property along South Parker Road.

Built during the Colorado Gold Rush period, this structure served as a critical way station for travelers along the Smoky Hill Trail between Denver and mining camps.

The building stands as one of only two remaining trail houses from the Smoky Hill Trail period, representing early Colorado settlement patterns.

Monthly guided tours through the house and grounds are conducted by the Cherry Creek Valley Historical Society, allowing visitors to explore the preserved interiors.

The distance of seventeen miles from downtown Denver determined the name of this former stagecoach stop, which later transformed into a working farm.
