Perfect Cuyuna Cottage
Ride to the trails right from the house! It’s literally around the corner from the park entrance. In addition, the house is super clean, well stocked, and all of the amenities are fully functional. Dining and groceries are anywhere from a block away to a mile away. Lindsay, the host, is friendly and communicative. Would absolutely stay here again.

Fantastic weekend!
We had an amazing weekend at this property! Our family of 5+my brother+2 dogs enjoyed playing bags, fires in the backyard, movies, comfy beds, delicious food, and time on the Cuyuna bike trails. It was the perfect mix of activity and downtime and was so nice to have the space to spread out. We were also thankful for the great communication from our host! We would love to do this trip again!
