Birthday getaway
Just stayed over to enjoy a dinner in the area for a birthday dinner. It was a quick trip. We did not have a pet. The property to me is best suited for someone traveling with pets.

Great cottage and right in town
We loved our 2 nights in Mount Dora and this small house made our mini vacation even better. Everything was provided, Maria was a friendly, responsive host, and the shops and restaurants were a 5 minute walk away.

Easy stroll to downtown Mount Dora
Very clean, safe feeling neighborhood and quiet. Easy walk to downtown. Had everything we needed for our one night stay. The unit is downstairs so it’s convenient for easy access. This is very old home so it has that bungalow feel to it. Owner. Dry responsive and easy to work with.
