    Default Hampton, Tennessee - drop box

    Is there a good place in Hampton (Tennessee) to leave a box of stuff for a few days? We're doing a hike up from Erwin to Damascus and want to leave food and a few supplies. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Left stuff at Black Bear Resort. Very hiker-friendly place, close to where the AT crosses Dennis Cove Road, good for basic resupply, kitchen, campsites, hostel, cabins. New management, lots of work being done. We'll be there Wednesday p.m. Kincora was closed when I went by a few days ago.

    I agree with old hiker the Braemar Castle Hostel is your best option for leaving a "Stash box" i stayed there on my Thru this year Mr. Brown was a very nice person.

    LW says it's closed. Best bet the grocery store a block or so away?
