House was very clean and well appointed but the master bedroom was a bit small. Laundry was in the garage and not accessible from the house. Walking distance to downtown was very nice. Overall, we enjoyed our stay! Very good value.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Mar 2026
Thank You for choosing to stay with us and sharing your feedback. As you could imagine when the cottage was built 100 years ago, there was neither running water or electricity. So to modernize the home, adding a bathroom to the master bedroom (an already tiny room) took more square footage from the room space. In addition, washer and dryer were not part of the original design. We decided to add these amenities for our guests and the garage was the only option.

Great Mt Dora location

Owner was very quick to respond, location is within walking distance of cute restaurants, quiet neighborhood, linens were nice, place was clean. If I had to say one thing that would’ve been a more convenient stay would be to have a coded door lock instead of having to keep up with keys. Would definitely recommend staying here!

We love to travel and have stayed in so many wonderful places. We hope to be able to offer a cozy place for our guests to feel safe, relaxed, and in a terrific location to see and do all the things in the surrounding area. We have tried to take all the best touches from places we have stayed in the past and tried to offer what we think is the most important for a comfortable stay.

Why they chose this property

We LOVE the location!! Neighborhood is so nice and quiet. We have truly enjoyed getting to know the neighbors and taking walks, and learning all the history of the local area.

What makes this property unique

SUPER location to head into downtown Mount Dora for dining, shopping, walking to Gilbert Park for Sunset by the lighthouse or making a quick drive to Rennigers for antiquing and the Farmers Market. Very central and easy access to everything from fishing, boating, the theater, and the festivals.
