We had a wonderful stay in this charming, clean historic home, perfectly located within walking distance of shops and restaurants. It was incredibly comfortable, and we loved being able to explore everything on foot. The host was flexible, responsive, and easy to communicate with, which made the experience even better. A perfect spot for a girls’ trip!

Excellent stay. The house is great full kitchen, linens, one master bed 2 nd floor, two on fist floor, plenty of parking, maybe half mile walk to town or less (easy walk). Download Freebee shuttle which is enclosed golf cart service. They work on tips Tim and Dale who picked us up were great. Never a wait. Highly recommend this place located near everything.

This is a great house! It has been completely renovated so while keeping the aesthetic appeal of its 1887 age, it feels like you are in a modern house with very comfortable amenities. The host greeted us upon arrival and made us feel welcome. Beds are comfy and the location is ideal. You could walk to downtown Mt Dora from this location. Front bedroom is a little noisy, so bring ear plugs and you’ll sleep fine. We enjoyed our stay at 1887 Royellou House!
