Beautiful cottage

Great location. Our host was so helpful making us feel welcomed. We arrived to find our private driveway surrounded by beautiful gardens leading up to the cutest cottage .Inside very comfortable furnishings and every possible amenity. Our Hostess checked on us daily to ask if there was anything we needed and to make sure everything was going okay. She provided information on some of the places to go and eat and every suggestion was just the best possible. Transportation from La Petite Suites was easy via golf cart service if you need . Our place was in walking distance to restaurants and just down the street from the downtown. We were excited to find this wonderful spot and without hesitation will look forward to booking again in the future to stay at this incredible Cottage.

In spite of cold and rain, our stay in this charming little cottage was wonderful! The hosts have thought of EVERYTHING to make the cottage delightful and fully stocked, yet uncluttered. They are available 24/7 and respond immediately to text messages. I couldn’t recommend this cottage more highly!

Heaven on earth

Our visit at La Petit Cottage hosted by Sherree and Ron leaves me at a loss for words. Not only was it the cleanest “home away from home” that we have ever stayed in but it was fully furnished with everything you could possibly imagine to make your stay perfect in every way. Everything from dental floss to cereal and wine to water. Sa More supplies, too! ! A “library” full of great books. Counting the days for when we get to come back! Thanks for a visit to “shangrila”’

DUE TO ISSUES BEYOND MY CONTROL THERE WAS A MAJOR FIRE ALONG MY ROUTE OUT OF THE FL. KEYS AND I THEREFORE HAD TO CANCEL MY TRIP. THE OWNER WAS KIND ENOUGH TO REFUND THE COST EXCEPT THE VRBO FEE AND TAXES. I SHOULD NOT BE REQUIRED TO PAY THE TAXES SINCE I DID NOT GO.

Exceeded expectations

This was such a great experience. As stated in many other reviews, Le Petit Suite was immaculately clean, very tastefully decorated and centrally located to Mount Dora. We literally came back from the Highland Street cafe in 3 minutes and Donnelly Street in 5.Ron and Sherre were fantastic hosts: there for any needs you might have but respectful of privacy. They treated us like family, including our dog (who enjoyed the peace and quiet as much as us).The property had everything you could ask for (and more!). All kinds of snacks and drinks on the house and every utensil you could hope for. Just bring your clothes ( though I’m sure they would help you there too if they were asked)In short, this was a fantastic experience and a much needed restful and comfortable stay. Would book again in a heartbeat! Thanks Ron and Sherre!

The absolute best VRBO we have ever stayed with our dogs..

This is our 2nd. stay with our 2 rescue dogs (Shih-Tzu) ages 11 & 12. The owners live next door so we never have to worry about their safety. It is a very quiet & safe area just near the town of Mt. Dora. It is within walking distance if you can walk, which we cannot (ages 72 & 74). So many fine places to eat, also with take out. You cannot ask for any VRBO that is so well stocked when you arrive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

About the host

Hosted by Ron and Sherre Baker

Host profile image
Ron and I are semi-retired and moved here to Mt. Dora from Miami in 2014 and just love it! We had been in Miami since the 1970's and were ready to slow down , a little! Our daughter discovered Mt. Dora and chose it as the location to open her dream custom cake shop and we followed her here! Greatest decision ever!!!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property at first sight because of the location and the beautiful grounds. It has only improved with time with beautiful greenery and flowers throughout the property.
