If there’s one thing to remember about the late Flagstaff House owner Don Monette it’s that he would do anything to make sure his customers had a special experience at his restaurant. He died on Feb. 14 at the age of 85.
On Mother’s Day weekend in 1971, not long after he bought the restaurant, rain washed away part of the old gravel road leading up to the top of Flagstaff Mountain, where Flagstaff House has sat since the 1920s, overlooking Boulder below. So Don and his sons, Scott and Mark, flagged down cars on their way up from the bottom and shuttled guests part way up in a van.
Flagstaff House, founded by Don Monette, is famed for many things, including its sweeping views of Boulder Valley. Monette died Tuesday, at 85. . “At the time it was a huge investment and a huge risk,” Adam said. In addition to the single dirt road, “it was on well water and you had propane tanks. It just wasn’t fit to be a restaurant.”
When they would take a rare vacation, Don made sure to take his family to the nicest wineries and restaurants so that he could get a taste of their food and wine and learn new techniques to bring back to Flagstaff House.
