Host profile image
Hi, we’re Kevin and Dana, a husband-and-wife team, currently living in Haymarket, Virginia. Both of us are proud military veterans who now enjoy the simple pleasures of family, friends, good food, and the great outdoors. We fell in love with Tarpon Springs and decided to purchase this cottage to be closer to our family who live nearby. While we still call Virginia home most of the year, we’re thrilled to share our cozy getaway with guests like you when we’re away. We hope you enjoy your time here as much as we do and discover all the charm this wonderful town has to offer.
