Beautiful property and convenient to everything in Mount Dora parking is a little challenging. Make sure to park on the side street with the pink and white garage doors. Host was very helpful and location and could not have been better.

Best Place Ever!

Absolutely loved staying at this house! Jan and Suzanne were the best host and hostess! Everything about our stay was excellent. The house is tastefully decorated, extremely clean, and loaded with amenities. We didn't lack anything the week that we stayed! Can't imagine a better location...walking distance to downtown, Lake Dora, and trails. Don't hesitate to book this house! You won't be disappointed!

Sweet (almost) downtown Mount Dora Suite

From the moment Suzanne greeted us until our checkout we felt taken care of. It was so well decorated and clean, so clean. My husband liked sitting at the front desk and watching all the people walking by. We walked almost everywhere, which on a busy holiday weekend was great, no parking hassles. There was even a washer/dryer to use and off street parking. We’ll be back.

Ideal House and Location

Truly one of the best rental experiences we have had. The house was spotless, showroom decorated, and every small detail was thought of to make a renters experience perfect. The location was ideal. We had never been to Mount Dora and didn't know what to expect. The town has a lot to offer and everthing is in walking distance from the house. The town is busy and if we would have had to drive to downtown it would not have been the great experience we had. I can't recommend this house enough.

About the host

Hosted by Suzanne Scheck

Host profile image
My Husband and I grew up in Fort Lauderdale, Fl. We then raised our family in the historic Village of Garden City on Long Island, NY. When looking to move back to Florida; we knew we didn’t want the hustle and bustle of South Florida.

We had family in the central Florida area. While spending time here at vacation rentals, we fell in love with the quaintness, friendliness and beauty of Mount Dora! Because we spent a year living in vacation rentals we are tuned into what works and what doesn’t when hosting guests.

We hope you come and enjoy the embrace of what old Florida is all about and the comfort of a beautifully decorated space to call home.
