Cookie Lady's Bike Hostel

The Cookie Lady's Bike Hostel is a veritable museum to the Trans America route. June Curry has been hosting cyclists here since the inception of the BikeCentennial route in 1976. Over 10,000 cyclists have called this wonderful place "home" for a night or more. This is one hostel where you will definitely want to stay overnight.

June has a "bike house" as well as her private residence. The bike house is the lower building. Her house is the upper building (a garage is in between). She may be in the hostel or in her home when you arrive. Check the hostel first. There is a doorbell on the back door of her house if she's not in the hostel.

Hostel accomodations include a well-stocked kitchen with food, cold water shower, lots of floor space, great hospitality, and more postcards and letters than you could ever read in a lifetime.

Eastbound Trans America Route - Look for the hostel on the right side of the road after you pass the intersection in Afton where the post office is. You'll be happy to find it after one of the steepest climbs on the entire 4000+ mile route. It's on CR 750.

Westbound Trans America Route - Look for the hostel on the left side of the road as you descend the hill. Don't pass it up on this very steep road or you'll be disappointed to have to climb back up the road. Remember Vesuvius? It's on CR 750.
