    Default Shuttle recommendation - Franklin NC

    I have looked up on this incredibly impressive interweb tool for shuttle services in or near Franklin for a June hike I am planning. So far I am batting 0 for 2 in getting my phone calls returned. I need the name of someone reliable/reputable/ and willing to return phone calls. Recommendations?

    Call Ron Haven at Baltimore Jack's Place Hostel. He provides free shuttle from Winding Stair and Rock Gap to Franklin. Also if Staying in Franklin don't forget about the free pancake breakfast at the First Baptist Church.

    4shot, did you find a shuttle in the franklin nc area. My wife and I shuttle in ga and nc, more in ga. We often recommend mike newton for nc trailheads. His number is 8283718275. My number (Mike) is 3523220822. I also have other contacts if you need them. Feel free to call me. Mike
