I've been looking at the trip planner for biking from Harper's Ferry to Georgetown. The listing shows lodging in Leesburg at about 30 miles-perfect! Except, when I called the hotel said that the ferry is now closed so the Leesburg hotel is on Virginia side of river & I'll be on Maryland side. Any suggestion for lodging about 1/2 way between Harper's Ferry & Georgetown on the Maryland side? Also, food would be good too.

The guide page needs to be updated!
Thanks!

The only available lodging near the trail closer to Georgetown than Harper’s Ferry is in Brunswick as far as I know and it’s only a few miles on down the trail from Harpers Ferry. While the hotels in Leesburg were off the trail, the shutdown of Whites Ferry has virtually made the inaccessible for bikers. Ugh!
