Vine Cottage Inn of Hot Springs, Virginia recently announced their participation in B&B’s for Vets, a national program offering complimentary overnight stays for veterans and active military. The B&B’s for Vets program, hosted by the Association of Lodging Professionals, is designed to thank our nation’s veterans and active military for their service by providing them with the unique experience of staying at independent lodging properties like Bed and Breakfasts.
The B&B’s for Vets program was started by Kathleen Panek, a West Virginia innkeeper, in 2008 and thousands of veterans and active military have been hosted over the years. “This is our second year participating in this program. Last year we had two wonderful veterans stay with us and we are looking forward to hosting two more this year. Both of our fathers served in the military and we are honored to have the opportunity to give back to those that currently serve or have served in the past.” said Tammy and Dave Hahn, Innkeepers of Vine Cottage Inn.
“There’s really no way to convey the challenges that active duty separations bring to marriages and taking the time to reconnect can be difficult when you finally get back home,” said Fiona, a former B&B’s for Vets guest. “The benefit to our relationship is still being felt and the fantastic memories are a great motivation to be sure we take time with each other after every separation.”
Complimentary overnight stays are available at volunteer host Bed & Breakfast across the USA. Offer details are listed by region on BandBsforVets.org.
