13 years after the railroad was torn out, the August 1954 edition of Narrow Gauge News noted "C&S ex-Idaho Springs depot is now a gift shop."
About 9 years later, 1963, she looked like the photo below. A fence has been added. Also the door between the two end windows has been converted to another window. The utility pole near the corner is now gone. The raised freight platform appears to still be intact. The brick building (a hotel I believe) is still standing on the other end.

At some point, the depot was moved and converted to a private residence. According to this site, it is "located 3 miles up highway 103 from Idaho Springs." It is on the road to Mt. Evans. The photo below is from February 2002.
