They had decent service and good, filling meals along with a salsa bar. (See my review). I recommend the food there. The main house was very nice and decorated for Halloween. My buddy and I got a room in the bunkhouse. It seemed like hotel room prices for a couple of old beds in an aged, makeshift room in a barn. The bathroom was upstairs. It was a bit small but workable. We paid extra for the breakfast. There was a lot of variety and I ate my fill but the food seemed bland tasting. Also, the person who rang us up at the bunkhouse kept pressuring us to stay another night. We hiked that area and moved on.

I can believe it when some say this is "the best breakfast on the AT". It was outstanding! David…read moreand Shannon are fantastic hosts. Also stayed a night at the hostel which was great. Nice to get a good burger and beer before spending the night inside. Kudos to Trail Mix for her help and kindness at the hostel.

She was very open to help me whenever I needed it, from a little guidance around town to washing my clothes so I had fresh ones. The campground was clean and the cabin was roomy. I was a little worried by the pictures it was small but when I arrived I was proving wrong. There is so much supplies in the kitchen and I never had problems with someone taking my food from the fridge.

He and his…read morewife moved to Hampton TN, way up in the mountains, built a home with a connecting hostel just a short walk from the Appalachian Trail, with the intent to host AT hikers, and volunteer to maintain what was at the time a very poorly maintained section of the Appalachian Trail. It's a special place place rooted deep within the long distance hiking community. The hostels amenities are very simple. Bunks, wood stove, showers, laundry, free shuttle, kitchen. It's perfect for hikers. And anyone who meets Bob will tell you he is the salt of the earth.

Kincora is a hostel for AT hikers that only asks for a $5 donation if you're short on cash, however…read morewe loved the generosity from Bob Peoples and his helpers so much that we donated $20/person, especially when we herd that some hikers had been stealing money from his donation box, how disappointing and what a shame! Bob Peoples has got to be one of the friendliest members of the AT society I have met yet. He was extremely cheerful and loves to laugh and joke with everyone. At his hostel you can bunk, or if you're a couple and there aren't many hikers staying the night you arrive, he will let you stay in one of his private cabins (one is a tree house). You are also able to shower and do laundry during your stay, and they will also shuttle the group into town. We had a medical problem, so Bob made a special trip into town just for us. It is not the cleanest, newest hostel we've been to, however none thus far have been. It was the atmosphere that made it incredible. I just hope hikers don't take advantage of this gem and they give back to his cause. We had such an amazing experience at this hostel!

Showers were super clean and well stocked with shampoo, conditioner etc. Motorcycle garage themed. There is a small resupply with common foods like ramen, candy bars, poptarts and tuna pouches to name a few.

There are frozen foods available to buy like pizza, burritos, chinese food to name a view. Appliances available in common area are air fryers, oven, microwave and keurig coffee pot. We enjoyed relaxing on the leather couches in the dining area while we watched Guardians of the Galaxy before be shuttled to Sams Gap. Definitely one of my favorite places on the AT.

This time, we had a room off the kitchen. Even given the fairly central location in the house, our stay was quiet and comfortable; It was in the middle of summer, so air conditioning units may have blocked out some potential noise, but overall there was no kitchen-noise to deal with that we noticed. Again, the hostel was clean, felt safe, and was overall a great place to stay. This is an awesome location near to lots of restaurants and bars, and lends to easily walking anywhere in downtown Asheville within 15-20 minutes max.
