Perfect Cayuna getaway with friends
A very cute little house with all the amenities you might need for a biking weekend getaway with friends. Great location right off the bike path and within walking distance of the main street area. Thanks for a fun stay!

The house was great and we would definitely stay there again. While slightly farther off the main drag than others, the trade-off for quiet was worth it. The dedicated space to store our bikes was a great touch as well.

Even cuter than the pics!
This property is in the perfect location. You are SO close to the trails and the town but it's private and quiet. The house has so many cute little details (like bike racks inside, coffee, conditioner - most places forget this! - and a cool swing and fire pit).

Cozy Spot in the Heart of Crosby
We had an awesome stay here!! Very convenient location, comfy beds, an entryway with room to store bikes, and complimentary ground coffee from Caribou waiting for us when we got there. What more could you need?

Good location, easy stay, house could use some love.
We were able to book the property and get in for a last minute weekend of biking in Cuyuna. Plus sides: you can tell the owners have done a light renovation to get the house livable. It has most of the amenities needed for a stay in Crosby and provided a warm place to cook and stay for the weekend. The location is great to get to town and the trails. Three queen beds will allow for plenty of sleeping space. Indoor bike storage is nice for security. Smart TV for evening shows. Plenty of extra linens and blankets for big groups. Minutia: There is still some work to be done. The property leaves a bit to be desired when pulling up (rough outside, garage falling down with broken windows). The stove is missing a burner, the living room lights don't work, many dishes had dried food and needed to be re-washed, 1/8 of a roll of toilet paper was left with no spares, the body soap container was empty, and the furnishings were basic (plastic totes for dressers in the rooms).

We'll be back!
As we knew from staying last year, this is a lovely little remodeled home off the beaten path, but only a few blocks from everything in town. We plan to make this an annual event to race at the boat race and MTB the amazing trails. Thank you for helping us have a GREAT weekend.

Wonderfully Surprised
This newly renovated older home was a very pleasant surprise. It was very clean, organized, and well done for its small size. We had a fantastic weekend and I would definitely recommend this location away from the main street. Large yard and outdoor seating and fire pit is very inviting.

4th of July in Crosby
This house was perfect for us and our stay for a family wedding over the 4th of July. The AC was great to have as it was very hot the whole time we stayed. The outdoor fire pit and lights are a cute touch for the evenings. The decor is great.. really modern and nice. A few things to work on would be the beds are just ok as far as comfort, hot water was scarce after the first shower and a full size fridge and freezer would be nice too. Again, these are not dealbreakers as we loved the place and would stay again. The host was wonderful with quick and friendly communication!
