Story

The McAllister House was built for Major Henry McAllister and his wife Elizabeth in 1873, when Colorado Springs was a fledgling town known as the Fountain Colony. The McAllisters were influential in the building of Colorado Springs, and their beautiful home remains today to give us a glimpse of intimate family life during the 1870s-1880s.

What an amazing experience! I was so thankful to be able to show up at the right time for a tour before they closed. The your was so informational, deep rooted and eye opening. I am a native to Colorado Springs and to have an eye here in 1870s is completely amazing. Thank you for all of the funds that support this museum, this phenomenal mark in history. I highly recommend this museum interested to deepen their knowledge for the history of Colorado Springs.

Captivating. The tour and tea was lovely and well presented. We have a beautifully preserved historical gem here! Ask for Denny - she was attentive and engaging!

Just a neat little find in the middle of town. Go here, explore. The price is affordable and the tour guide I encountered was friendly and joyful. If/when I return, I hope to have the same experience and learn more about the founders of Colorado Springs. :D
