The Red Feather Lakes and Livermore area in northern Colorado has a rich history shaped by its rugged terrain and natural beauty. Native American tribes, including the Ute and Arapaho, were the region's first inhabitants, utilizing its abundant wildlife and water resources. In the mid-19th century, settlers arrived, drawn by the Homestead Act and opportunities in ranching, logging, and mining. Livermore, established in the 1860s, became a key ranching community and a hub for travelers heading west. The Livermore Hotel, built in 1874, served as a stagecoach stop and community gathering place.

In 1923, the area was officially named Red Feather Lakes, inspired by a Sioux princess known for her vibrant feathered headdress. The development included rustic cabins, trails, and recreational lakes, attracting visitors seeking relaxation and outdoor adventures.
