I was looking to do a bit of mountain biking on our last trip to Costa Rica but it had to be something my less bike oriented significant other could also enjoy. I contacted Carolle and made the arrangements. Definitely made the best decision, Carolle was an awesome guide and very accommodating as well as fun to talk to, my wife and I had a great time.
Highly recommend including food with your stay, Bike House is a bit remote and it isn't easy to just head out and grab food.

The Bike House Costa Rica, The "BEST"  Carole is a "Rock Star"!  She makes you part of her family and takes care of you like no other.

For the first leg of our Costa Rica visit, we booked a 2 plus day bike, eat, and stay with Carole at The Bike House. Travel from Liberia airport to the La Cruz area was straight forward and simple, minus a small mishap in town with rental car and a motorcycle. After meeting Carole and getting settled in our cabina, she refer us to a local resturant which had delicious fresh red snapper. The bike trails on both days were challenging, fun and beautiful. Carole provided great equipment and also tips for improving my wife's technique while riding. Before and after our rides she made great traditional meals for us to enjoy. More food than we could ever eat!  Also just hanging out at the house was so relaxing and just what we needed after our rides.  On our last morning there she took us on a hike to the new trail she is developing. It is going to be amazing! She has such a passion and a vision of what she is building and wants to provide for her guests. She loves what she does and where she lives. She loves sharing that with others. Carole also provided some ideas for legs 2 and 3 of our adventures after we left The Bike House. We so enjoyed the ideas she gave us.  We would definitely return and spend more than just 2 days here.  Best "All Inclusive" in Costa Rica.  X Stars!

We did the 2 day bike and stay adventure with Carole and had an amazing time. I loved how each mtb tour was paired with a special surprise either getting to visit a traditional Costa Rican homestead or stopping by a waterfall with the opportunity to jump in to cool off. Amazing host and relaxed atmosphere. Great option to stay active when the wind isn't kiteable.

We had a great stay at Carole her Bikehouse. We got a sneak peak in Carole her adventures life at Baya Salinas. It is not only a great area to explore by bike in terms of nature, but Carol also gives you a glimpse in the local life's of the people. We visited a farmer family that has land between the ancient petroglyphs and they invited us for lunch. We got a freshly got fish from a local fisherman in the baya. We felt very welcome in the Bikehouse.

Hi there Jeroen, it was an absolute pleasure to have fun and adventurous bikers like you at the bike house! I am happy you enjoyed the area, the contact to the local people and the biking that much. It brings me great joy to bring travelers and local people together on our rides and to give and insight into the life of local farmers as well as to visit the ancient historical and very special petroglyph site we got here. You will be always very welcome come back for new adventures. Take care, Carole

We had a great stay at the Bike House. Carole makes a great included breakfast and you can purchase dinner if you like, which makes it so convenient. We did a couple excursions with Carole on the mountain bikes and she provides some top of the line La Pierre full suspension bikes and she is a wonderful guide. There is a lot of different location to ride within the area. We plan to return again and again to enjoy the Bahia Salinas area. I am already missing these great Hammocks on the porch !!
