About this property
3BR MTB Themed Loft/Main Street Crosby with Indoor Bike Storage
A little bit bike museum, little bit historic, a little bit chic Euro-modern + we're smack dab downtown Crosby close to everything + short bike ride to Cuyuna trails. Our guests tell us they love The Bike Vault bike-themed atmosphere & touches, convenience and accessibility to restaurants/shops (like right across the street!). If you're looking for a distinctly different VRBO, book your stay now. BONUS: store your bikes in the original 1930s bank vault (oh, so, very secure).
The Bike Vault - Truly Unique
Why do we stand out in a crowd? 1) We are DOWNTOWN (not just close) right in the heart of the Crosby. We're across the street from Rafferty's Pizza and a few steps away from most of the delish restaurants & shops (e.g. Victual). Plus just park your car and walk/bike to trails & downtown amenities.
2)We are probably the coolest MTB-themed VRBO you'll ever stay in. Period. A local craftsman made so many bike-themed pieces that it's almost hard to list them all—a bike gear table, hooks and hangers, artwork, etc. Look around and find your favorite piece.
3) You have access to the entire 2nd floor lofted 3BR apartment that includes modern amenities (glass door fridge, 75" TV, etc.) plus all the wonderful historical elements like high ceilings and 1910 original wood trim, doors, crown molding & transom windows. Our place features a large kitchen/hangout area w/custom live-edge maple plank table, bike library w/sectional seating (+ a pullout queen bed), bikes & books, a large hallway connects the bedrooms offer additional bench seating & storage, full bath w/shower and private half-bath. Stay foot-loose and fancy-free by leaving your bikes & gear (e.g. helmet, shoes, jerseys) locked safely in the main level 1930s original Vault (hence, our name).

About the host
Hosted by Debrah Gunderson
We love mountain biking (MTBing) and finally rode the Cuyuna trails in 2017 and we were smitten. The 70+ miles of trail were calling our names, so we decided to make our mark and invest in Crosby. We first looked at houses, but ultimately the historic building of 101 West Main (former First National Bank of Crosby) caught our attention. We liked having professional spaces on the main level and saw the cobbled together apartment with all the original woodwork and high ceilings as potential for short-term rental. It happened that the renters moved out sooner than expected, so we started to design & renovate the 2nd Floor space to become a 3BR MTB-themed beauty. While we live 6+ hours away, one of the attractions was that our moms were located along our route, so we could stop & see them everytime we went to Crosby to work on The Bike Vault. We've enjoyed fine-tuning our place for guests and turning them onto everything Crosby offers - excellent MTBing + the mine lakes are AMAZING and provide wonderful opportunities for Kayakers/Stand-Up Paddleboarders/Canoers.
Why they chose this property
Crosby offers travelers a little bit of everything - access to International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA) silver-level ride center Mountain Bike Trails, pristine clear mine lakes, wonderful restaurants and shops - all in a small town setting. Park your car and bike/walk everywhere. Crosby is truly a gem in the upper Midwest.
What makes this property unique
Location, location, location + MTB-themed 3BR loft apartment. We're the only 3BR loft right downtown Crosby - steps away from restaurants, shops and only a few blocks from the Cuyuna Mountain Bike (MTB) trail system. We also offer safe (pun intended) secure storage in our 1930s original mail-level Vault for bikes/gear.
