It's been 50 years since my first and only hike on the trail. Did the first 170 miles back in 1966 and always wanted to finish it but just never got the time. Anyway I am retiring March 1st and plan on starting a thru hike shortly after that. I offered my wife the opportunity to join me but she thinks she's too old. She just isn't interested. She did say she would like to come up from time to time and assist with resupply's, rides into town and maybe do some day hikes. I haven't mentioned this to her yet but I have been searching the internet for maybe some places where she might be able to do some extended stays, a few weeks at a time.
I thought maybe monthly cabin rentals would be a little less expensive than motel rooms but all I am finding online are luxury cabins. Since it would only be her or maybe her and her sister she wouldn't need a luxury cabin, just simple accommodations. Does anybody know of any places along the trail that might fit this bill?
