Situated beside the tranquil Buck Creek and a mere stone’s throw from the famed Appalachian Trail, this charming retreat offers a haven for hikers seeking respite and rejuvenation.
Originally erected in 1904, the hostel exudes a timeless ambiance, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the authentic essence of the Appalachians while enjoying modern comforts. The ten cozy accommodations, each adorned with fresh linens and towels, provide a welcoming sanctuary after a day of exploration on the trail.
For those chilly mountain nights, a wood-burning stove stands ready to offer warmth and comfort, creating an inviting atmosphere for relaxation and camaraderie. The common area below invites guests to gather, cook a hearty meal, or simply unwind, fostering a sense of community among fellow travelers.
Whether you’re seeking solace by the murmuring Buck Creek, reconnecting with nature along the Appalachian Trail, or savoring the simplicity of mountain life, the Mountain Harbour Hostel is a serene retreat offering a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern amenities for travelers on their journey through the breathtaking landscapes of the Appalachians.
“I’ve stayed in their hostel on three separate occassions. This is undoubtedly one of the jewels of the AT. Mary is outgoing and a pleasure to visit. The hostel is great for section hikers such as my group. We plan to return each year for our traditional Roan Mountain hike.”
