Outdoor, adventures, steps away

Step outside your cabin or bungalow and directly onto Cuyuna’s iconic red dirt trails. With immediate access to 70+ miles of singletrack, the scenic Cuyuna paved trail, crystal-clear mine lakes, and historic Main Street Crosby, Cuyuna Cove makes it easy to move between adventure and downtime — with immediate access to trails, lakes and Main Street Crosby via nearby paths and a short ride or walk.

Every season brings something different, whether you’re riding, walking, paddling, fat tire biking, HOK skiing or simply wandering into town for a meal after a day outside.

Plan Your Experience

A place to slow down.

After a day on the trails or exploring Crosby, the sauna offers a simple way to wind down. Our custom redwood sauna is shared, thoughtfully designed, and included with your stay — a place to warm up, sit quietly, and let the day settle.

Paired with time outdoors, the sauna becomes part of the rhythm here: move during the day, rest in the evening, and head back to your cabin or bungalow feeling grounded and refreshed.
