Estelene Bunkhouse and Historic Sites

Visit the site of the former community center of Estelene, named after Estelene Collins who taught at the schoolhouse and ran the local post office on the Collins Ranch. Down the road view the foundations and cistern of the early 20th-century Estelene schoolhouse. Visitors can experience the history of the area by staying in the charming locally quarried limestone bunkhouse, which was once Estelene's post office. An earlier post office building overlooks the site from the hill near the ranch house. Established in 1910 Estelene served as a community center and post office for the rural people of southwest Baca County until 1927.
