We would like to ride our e-bikes from Cumberland , Md to DC but are having a difficult/impossible time securing Hotel/Air B&B lodging in the Poolesville area. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I’m not aware of any lodging options in Poolesville. A few years ago, you could cross the Potomac River via Whites Ferry near Poolesville and ride up to Leesburg where there are several lodging options. However, that ferry no longer operates. To my knowledge, the last lodging before DC is in Brunswick.

Perhaps others can offer options that I am unaware of.

Check on the Canal Trust's Canal Quarters program. There are several lockhouses downstream from Brunswick that you can rent for the night or longer.
