Needed Relaxation

Loved the peace and quiet of the neighborhood. We were able to walk and enjoy the Mt Dora area and did not have to use our vehicle once during our stay. The carport area was perfect for shade and a nice breeze was always present. The house was as described and beds were very comfortable. We will definitely be staying again.

Mt Dora stay

Check in was easy. Loved the key pad entrance not having to share a key Could not figure out the Netfix on any of the TVS but we did not go there to watch TV so no big deal. Close to the downtown area and shopping. It was a short stay but if it was a longer stay the kitchen was not perfectIn

Quiet and convenient location

This comfortable cottage was very cozy and relaxing. The neighborhood is quiet and the location was very convenient. We were able to walk to dinner, shopping and to play pickleball. The bikes were a great addition and we enjoyed the bike path.

Cozy Bungalow

The Cozy Bungalow lived up to its name and the property owner was very accommodating. We were evacuating from Hurricane Milton so under a lot of stress. The helpfulness from the property owner made things just a little easier at a time when we were already dealing with a lot.

Great Mt. Dora Bungalow

Everything was clean and what one would expect in a nicely renovated bungalow cottage. Wi-fi worked well. Kitchen appliances worked fine. Somewhat unusual to have a full-sized dishwasher in a cozy-type home, but this one does. Happy to stay there again, next time I'm in town.

Walking distance to town

Nice place and 13 blocks to town. This was our second time to stay in this unit but we ate out on our first trip. Eating out has become very expensive so I dicided to cook a meal. The Kitchen wasn't set up for cooking. There are no potholders or colander for draining pasta. I would stay there again.

Cozy is….a stretch. I would say bare minimum. Bare minimum kitchen necessities, bare minimum bath linens and bare minimum bed linens, the pillows are about as flat as pancakes. Is it worth the money if all you’re looking for is a clean safe place to rest your head for a night or two? Absolutely but, do not at all expect any type of luxury, even electrical outlets are limited.

The moment we entered the property we were charmed of how cute it was. Inside so cozy and a lot of natural lighting and very clean. The place was perfect and the home displays a lot of character. The beds were super comfy and I loved that it had two full bathrooms. Best, so close to Downtown Mount Dora just a few blocks away!

What a great little spot to stay! Cozy, homey, and welcoming! We hardly had to drive anywhere, except to the next town over to a restaurant we wanted to go to. Checking in was super easy! Downtown is maybe a 10 minute walk, and you get to see so much of the whimiscal charm of Mt. Dora on the way! We (and our pups) had such a great time and cannot wait to go back! Thank you so much!

Beautiful Historic Cozy Bungalow

We had a great stay at the Cozy Bungalow! It is a beautiful place and just as the pictures and description. It is a short walk to downtown Mt.Dora and in a beautiful neighborhood. Steve is a great host and we would definitely stay there again!

Fell short of expectations

It was a fine place to stay if you have activities outside the house. It seemed odd that there were exactly 4 shabby bath towels and wash cloths for 4 people, and exactly 4 rolls of toilet paper. Also, the tap water smells/tastes strongly of sulphur....be sure to bring your own drinking water.

Halloween weekend

We had a fantastic stay in Mount Dora and this sweet little bungalow was perfect! You can definitely walk downtown if you want to, everything is so close. We loved having the backyard for the pups. They did seem interested in the chickens next door but the neighbor was very sweet and we worked out a schedule between the dogs. The inside of the house is simple and modern, and the bedrooms are decent, we had 2 kids and 2 adults. We would definitely consider renting this again. Halloween weekend was awesome, they had so much going on all over town. Thanks for a great weekend!
