If you want to "escape" the hustle... get away from it all... this is the gift you've been waiting for :)

The Neighborhood:
We are located on the very heart of downtown Mount Dora, only minutes from delicious boutique restaurants, fine dining, and charming local shops. This is a truly unique place. 38 minutes from downtown Orlando.

Getting Around:
Uber and Lyft are available on-demand, and of course the area is very walkable as well with many shoppes and tasty tidbits within walking distance :)

Other Things to Note:
"Can you give me a discount?"

I'm happy to offer a 10% discount for weekly stays and 20% discount for monthly stays.

"Do you have reliable Internet & WiFi?"

Yes, we have lightning-fast fiber optic internet and WiFi, in fact, we're known for some of the fastest internet in the U.S., which we're very proud of :)

"What's the monthly rate? Can I lease month to month?"

If there's a full month available with no existing bookings, you're welcome to select the dates and the app will show you the pricing breakdown for your date range. We've had many guests book 30+ nights and we do offer a large 20% discount for monthly bookings. Also, for your safety and convenience, we only book through this app (no traditional leases or "under the table" agreements). If the dates are available, you're welcome to book multiple months and the app will charge you once a month (the same rhythm as a traditional lease).

"What kind of coffee maker do you have?"

We have a drip coffee machine, it can brew a steaming hot cup with single-serving or an entire pot of fresh coffee, per your preference. I’m also happy to provide coffee and filters, on the house :) If you have a specific brand of coffee that you enjoy, you're welcome to bring that, too.

I look forward to welcoming you to The Retreat!

Weekend trip
Property manager was very responsive and made sure to check up on us during our stay. House was perfect and clean and we were able to walk to downtown fairly quickly and easily. Would definitely recommend to others.

Very Cozy Cottage
We enjoyed our stay The Retreat! Perfect for 2 couples. Unfortunately we had to drive downtown because the walk was farther than we realized. I have stayed in several rentals in Mt Dora and I would not consider this location to be in the heart of Mt Dora. The beds were super comfy and the decor was perfect for the cottage. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need, however I wish there were a couple non-stick fry pans to use when cooking breakfast. We used the stainless pans and everything stuck, not what we are used to cooking with. Overall we had a fantastic time and Mt Dora never disappoints, especially during Christmas The host was very responsive to our needs.

Walking distance to restaurants and shops
This property was cozy and perfect for our group of 4. We were able to walk to restaurants and shopping, enjoying the beauty of many of the sights of Mount Dora. We will definitely look to book it again on a return trip.

Nice Place
We stayed for a month awaiting closing on our new home. While it’s on a busy street it’s very quiet in the house. Host was very responsive. Wifi worked great. Really no issues. Would definitely stay here again.
