Riding Fool is a hidden gem. Located on the main street in Cumberland, there are great restaurants, a brewery, a bakery and a great bar located all within a block or two. The trails are a short ride down the street. Rooms are very clean, bathrooms are clean and located close to the rooms. A great stay.

We enjoy.d the old building which is clean and comfortable. However, we had a double bed up against the wall which made it difficult to get up in the night. We would like to book a queen bed if that is possible as my husband is a big man, another time. Thanks Althea

Awesome locale for a Bike vacation. Showed up and parked across the street and didn't have to move the car all weekend. Bike room and storage on the first level, large rooms upstairs. Staff was very friendly and had great riding recommendations. Common area was better stocked with amenities than I thought (full kitchen and large fridge) as well as pool table, couches, darts. No freezer than I could see (so don't bring anything that needs that). Location is 2 blocks from the trails, less than 3-4 minutes to the bottom of the climb trail. 5 blocks to the jump park, easy walk to restaurants. Highly recommend, will definitely be back!
