About the Dunraven Inn

Dunraven Inn History
Old Dunraven Inn Sign There has been a structure of some type on this location since 1907. The original entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park was right behind us. The Holland Inn was the original name of this building and restaurant, which opened in the early 1930's. After a succession of owners, Neil Quirk purchased the building in 1970. He did an extensive renovation, and renamed the restaurant the Dunraven Inn. Julius Schneidkraut and family purchased the restaurant in 1979. The Schneidkrauts offered good Italian cuisine and operated the restaurant until 1994.

The Dollar Bills
You can't help but noticed all the dollars hanging in the entryway and bar area. We estimate that there are approximately $16,000 in the building. Hanging a bill is supposed to bring luck to the person donating the dollar. From time to time we remove torn, faded and worn dollars and donate them to the local charities. Markers and staple gun are available at the host stand if you want to leave a dollar!
