I am a NOBO section hiker looking to cross the Smokies this Spring. I want to leave my car on the East end by 1-40 and get a shuttle down to Fontana.

Any suggestions on an appropriate place to stash my car for 5 days (preferably at a motel if possible)?

Also, any suggestions on a shuttle from the East side of the Park where the AT crosses I-40 down to Fontana Dam?
