Impeccably updated and maintained home in a quiet walkable district of historic Tarpon Springs. Home and amenities were A, so many nice touches and elements to make you feel welcome. Beds and rooms were very comfortable, and everything seems brand new. Loved enjoying the morning with a coffee on the front porch. Easy stroll to the heart of town and the sponge docks. Great communication with the owner who was super helpful. Highly recommend and will book an extended stay soon.

Everything needed plus. Kitchen was supplied with everything. Dishes, towels, Insta pot, tea, pot, coffee machine. Also, they surprised us with some treats that were local from Tarpon Springs. Extra toilet paper, PT and trash liners. All the towels were brand new. Everything was impeccable. Dana and Kevin went above and beyond with 222 Hope St.,Tarpon Springs.

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.
