Decorator's Delight!

Paula is an amazing host and her communication is outstanding. We have stayed at many VRBOs and the decor/design are just amazing. From the Tiffany lamps to the various window treatments to the floor inlays to crown molding and ceiling design to wall paintings to the vintage furniture to multiple fireplaces, this "Whimsical Retreat" was stunning. Everywhere you looked there was something else that would get your attention. The backyard seating area is peaceful and quiet. The kitchen is well stocked, beds are comfy, and it's exceptionally clean. The property is ideally located to walking to the downtown area with plenty of shops and restaurants and the beautiful Lake Dora, and the neighborhood is very quiet. Will definitely stay here again!!!
