Alan, the Owner, is most accommodating and is willing to shuttle for resupply (as well as pick up and deliver to the trailhead).

Hearing from other Hikers that the motels of Pearisburg are less than what was expected, another Shuttle Driver spoke quite highly of MACARTHUR INN OF NARROWS, VIRGINIA… so we (and friends who have driven in from Tennessee to hike and camp with us for a few days) have booked a room here for a NERO.
