May 3, 1912
THE ASPEN DEMOCRAT TIMES announced
“Osgood to reopen Redstone Inn for summer tourists.”
 “The inn is known far and wide as one of the coziest nooks in the Rocky Mountains “
 “The automobile boulevard from Carbondale to Redstone, built by Osgood,
is one of the finest pieces of roadways in the state”
Notably – the Redstone Inn is one of only three properties in the Greater Roaring Fork Valley to have served guests since 1902.  When the mines and coke ovens closed in 1909, Redstone may have become yet another Colorado ghost town were it not for the the grand buildings.
 
Thru Thick and Thin, Day in and Day Out,
Redstone Inn has welcomed first coke oven workers, then guests for 121 years.
