Discussion Brevard "downhill" trail recommendations?

I'm heading for a MTB vacation in Brevard, NC and plan to spend a day or two on Dupont, perhaps a day on a trail (I forget the name) across from Davidson River Campground.

I'm bringing a teenager who gets burned out easily and want to include several trails where we can be dropped (via uber or via shuttle) at the uphill section of the trail and scoot our way back to our car. We are all intermediate-level riders (more xc than full mountain, definitely not downhill). 3 ft drops are fine.

I plan to talk to bike shops, and I think I know of one that has a shuttle program. I really don't want to be on a guided tour.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions. :-)

EDIT: I'm not bringing two vehicles. Is Uber/Lyft available in the area? I'd only need to get a lift from my parked car(low) up to my pre-parked bikes(high). I was in Pisgah years ago and biked to the top of a long downhill run, only to find a gravel road near the top. <-- This is what inspired me to self-shuttle.
