Attracting both locals and vacationers from across the state and country, the Inn provided a mountain getaway for individuals, families, and parties. Since its opening in 1919 and through the height of its popularity in the 1940s and 1950s, the Brook Forest Inn played a vital role in resort tourism along the Front Range and specifically in Evergreen. With the exception of brief periods, the Brook Forest Inn has continuously operated as an Inn and restaurant since 1919. The inn closed in recent times, and is listed for sale as of summer 2018.
