Nice ammentities and seclusion. We were able to take a quick paddleboard trip around the surronding canals and lakes. We had a nice evening in Mount Dora which is only about 20 miles away.
Enjoyed our 3 week stay. It was peaceful, quiet and safe. Mike and Bernie were great and available for whatever was needed. Enjoyed the natural beauty of the area.
Would definitely return.

Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
Not worth it
The property is rundown, the interior is full of dust and spiderwebs, and the stove is in very bad shape, not to mention that the propane tank was empty when I checked in. Those wall air conditioning units cannot keep up with Florida heat. The pictures in this ad are deceiving, and the amenities mentioned in the ad are far from the truth. The areas around the trailer are filthy, and the kayaks or the paddle boats are dirty and filled with water. The fire pit is used for debris disposal and the "lake" is so dirty that isn't even enjoyable to the eyes. During my entire stay, I wondered who wrote those wonderful reviews because none of them were true. Never again will I listen to other people's reviews.
