This is the best AT hostel I’ve stayed at. The accommodations were great, our cabin was warm and clean. Jim, Lucky Moon, and Grumpy were great hosts. Highly recommend Boots Off!

Super nice people here! One of the best hostels have stayed at on the Appalachian Trail. They accept work for stays, and the work is fair and not exploitive in the least bit. There is a beach 15-minutes down the road too.
