About this property

Modern & cozy - sleeps 12! Right at Trailhead

  • Join us at Red Dirt Retreat for an up north escape. Enjoy fat tire biking, ice fishing on the surrounding lakes or mine pits, cross country skiing on the well-groomed trails. Your large group will be right at home in this casual, but elegant 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom that comfortably sleeps 12. Beds are super comfy. Linens are top of the line. Kitchen is fully stocked for cooks. Garage is heated and has a foosball table and ping pong table.

    2 blocks to bike trail access and then less than 5 minutes by bike or walk to the Portsmouth Mine Pit Lake and connections to all the trails.

    Home has an open concept main floor with comfortable living room and 65 inch smart TV with all your favorite apps, large dining room that comfortably seats 12 and a chef’s kitchen packed with appliances and tools.

    One main floor bedroom (king) with a connected full bath). Main floor large hall space with full size bike trail maps, indoor and outdoor games, puzzles, books and more to enjoy. Door leads to a partially covered outdoor deck and yard. Updated fire pit coming!

    There are two separate second level living spaces! One in the front of the house with three bedrooms and a full bath (1 king, 1 queen, 2 fulls). One in the rear of the house with a bunk room (4 twins) and a 3/4 bath (shower, no tub).

    Basement laundry room stocked and available for guest use.

    Whole house is accessible to guests, including garage

    On site hosts, Ryan and Sara, are available throughout your stay and easily reached via text or phone.

    This great home is just 10 blocks off Highway 6 (main road through town). The neighborhood is quiet and the house sits on the corner between two dead-end streets, so car traffic and noise is minimal.

    There IS a nice stream of bike traffic, though! This home is 2 blocks from the bike trailhead that leads to Portsmouth Mine Pit Lake and it’s associated trails.

    So close to everything Crosby has to offer!

Overall the house was clean and delightful. There was one garbage can that hadn't been emptied, and a plastic bottle left under one bed. Little nits: The living room could use another table lamp. The main floor bedroom has room for, and could use, a chair -- I kept sliding off the the bed when sitting on it to dress. Other than that - the house is delightful, and close to where we needed to be, and restaurants.

Crosby Adventure

The house was very well equipped with everything we might need. Loved having the solo stove to use & having the space in the garage to store our bikes (even a bike rack) made it easy & safe when we were not using them. Easy walk to town. Loved Crosby! Very friendly town folks. Everything about it was great!

Let's Meet in the Middle for Family Fun!

From Green Bay and Oklahoma City...met in the middle in Crosby. Had a fabulous time. Room for everyone, and space for all. Garage has a great set up for bike storage and added games and beach toys. House was perfect for everyone, from the 2 year old to the grandparents. Biking, hiking, scootering, Serpent Lake beach, park, playground, Clear Kayaking at the Rally Center, the railroad museum, walks downtown, the miners memorial walk... Had a great stay and would certainly do it again.

Can't say enough good things about the host!

This home is configured very nicely for a group of 12 that came to this location to bike Cuyuna. The home is cozy and super clean. We loved the kitchen and large gathering area for games and conversation. The garage was perfect for securely storing our bikes. Unfortunately after we settled in there was an unforeseen water problem due to the harsh freezing weather. There was a quick response from the owner who immediately came onsite and tried to correct the problem. After it was discovered that the problem could not be fixed immediately the host offered up a similar property in the neighborhood and they promptly compensated us for the inconvenience. I cannot say enough how professional and caring the host handled the situation. Even with the unfortunate issues with the water, our group hopes to return and patron this host in the future!

beautiful quiet retreat.

My husband, my daughter n her hubby and 12 yr old stayed there ! Since we were the overflow of lake cabin .. we mostly used it to just sleep n breakfast. Three things objectionable were: faucet Towel hanger in the downstairs bathroom : my husband hit that ... we did not cook there but prefer stainless steel cookware and garage needed airing out ( I m sure of all the rains we got ...] plus we did not spend much time here as we were at the lake most of the time. we enjoyed our time there at night. street was very quite. decor is great... The host very prompt in all the things we asked for...etc... Super one grocery store is near by. we had to run to E.R. in Brainard ... and that place too was amazingly friendly . So all in all we had a fantastic time there. Our 12 yr old loved the place... WE would use it again if we ever come back there and if it is available. All in All it is gem in that little town! great job. We loved it.

This property satisfied all our needs. We had five adults and four kids. The amount of space was even more than we needed. It was so nice to have linens, paper towels, and detergents available for use. We plan to use this property again in the future for visiting family in the area. Ryan was extremely responsive and provided all necessary information for a wonderful stay! Thank you!
