If you want a quirky and fun getaway a trip to Southern Minnesota could be in order. If you are an avid cyclist, this is the perfect time of year to check out the fall colors along the Root River. If that sounds like a good time, why not up your fun and stay at an old gas station?  There's a really fun-looking Airbnb that is two blocks from the bike trail and features old gas pumps, along with fun vintage items inside.

The former gas station sits off County Road 25 in Peterson and was built as a gas filling station in 1925. The pumps still sit outside, with the price of gas frozen at 37 cents. Here's what Superhost Sarah says about her vintage gas station oasis.

Located in a quiet little town in Minnesota, enjoy the unique stay at this old Mobil gas station bulit in 1925. Outside you'll find the original gas pumps (stopped at 37 cents!). Inside the station is quaint space containing full kitchen and bathroom, queen size bed, and living room that will have you taking a step back to your grandparents house. Surrounded by bluffs you will be staying just 2 blocks away from Root River bike trails.

How about a peek inside? The charm and fun hopefully will match your experience biking along the Root River, taking in all the fall colors.
