- The Future of Angel’s Rest Hiker Haven
Opening a hostel is no small undertaking. Doc Peppa soon discovered that, since she was going to allow tent camping, the City of Pearisburg required her to comply with 16 pages of state regulations governing campgrounds. This included the building of a bath house, with three separate showers, commodes, and vanity sinks, and that it would not only h...
Not ones to sit and dwell on negatives, Doc Peppa and Bam-Bam got busy on moving forward with all the actions necessary to transform their property. They first got the trailer ready for hikers, while getting a contractor busy on the design and build of the bath house. The bath house, being built on a hill, meant that there would have to be a baseme...
Right from the start, Doc Peppa and Bam-Bam recognized the wealth of talent in the hikers, wisely placing their trust in their judgement. This has paid off, for in a mere 10 months, the combined special talents of the hikers has transformed the property into a vibrant, well-run hostel that efficiently caters to the unique needs of hikers.
With the hostel up and running, and hikers limping in with all kinds of ailments, Doc Peppa saw the need to start a healing clinic in her basement of their home, since it would be too expensive to treat them at her downtown clinic. She converted the basement of their home into a hiker clinic, complete with all the equipment needed to provide chirop...

One way they are doing that is by providing a bus each spring to transport hikers on a 90 minute shuttle down to Damascus for trail days on Friday, returning them back on Sunday–all for free! Not only is the city doing something special for the hikers; so is a lo...
After sitting on their porch on my last afternoon with Doc Peppa, Bam-Bam, and their son, Merlin, I learned about the philosophical underpinnings of their hostel concept. Their goal for their hostel is to be a peaceful place of rest, relaxation and healing. Doc Peppa has even made up an adjective to describe it: ‘Zerolicious.’ She’s even applied fo...
With the purchase of several family-sized tents, Doc and Bam hope to encourage hikers to get their families, spouses, girlfriends/boyfriends, to come out and join them for a few days of R&R, while visiting local places of interest, such as: 1. Mountain Lake Resort: the location of the movie Dirty Dancing 2. Kayaking and tubing on the New River 3. H...
