Best Host and House

Let me start with the hostess with the most-est, Liz. She communicated with me regularly and gave a recommendation for the best restaurant I have visited in a very long time. The house was amazing and everywhere we looked there was another piece of art. She supplied everything you need for the most enjoyable stay. I would highly recommend this house and thank you Liz for everything.

A Mount Dora escape

We had the pleasure of spending a week in Liz’s wonderful Tree House. It’s a beautiful property, very peaceful, very well equipped, and immaculately clean. It’s within easy walking distance of the restaurants and shops of Mount Dora, but also only 40 minutes away from Universal etc. Liz was a great host. She had everything ready for our late arrival and quickly responded to any questions we had. We’ll definitely stay there again if we can.

Experiential Art Opportunity

This place is phenomenal! Truly an opportunity to exist within art. If you're old.enough to remember panoramas, well this is the ultimate one. Since it's a remodeled post office it even has a shoe box shape. Perfect! When you enter by the side door, head straight up to the top of this "treehouse" or continue on what feels like a path in the woods, complete with artwork of forest bugs. This leads you to a huge, open floor plan living space (clearing) that dwarfs you by trees visible thru high windows and a 10' dandelion by the front door. You actually feel minituarized and dropped into this Modern Tree House panorama! Climb the staircase to delight with a raven themed, humongous suite...it's the entire 2nd floor! What till you luxuriate in that whirlpool bath. Spa Heaven!!! There's even a balcony enabling you to relax in the treetops. One with nature. Each bedroom is a beautifully decorated, dream to sleep in. They're perfectly done. The forest theme resonates throughout but is truly immersive in these bedrooms. The main area is so spacious. A great place to cook and hang out. It's ultra modern looking and every detail is forest themed down to the silverware! Each area experienced separately has a museum quality. Wait till you see the details! These hosts provide a top of the line experience on every level. ALWAYS. They absolutely captured nature with a modern flair. Staying here is much more than a place to sleep. It's an opportunity to exist within art. Take it!!!

About the host

Hosted by Liz & Lee

I was born in Pennsylvania but grew up on St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands and moved to Florida at 11. I met Lee at Daytona International Speedway during Bike Week in 1990. He is a four-time national champion roadracer and I was on crutches after crashing my pink Honda "Hurricane"! We got married a year later and have been best friends for 32 years! We live happily in a small 572 sq.ft. one-room cabin on 35 acres surrounded by nature & amazing wildlife!
