It was a pleasure to stay in this cottage! Debbie was a wonderful and accommodating hostess. It is so accessible to the Historic district, ( that is absolutely amazing to experience), and is within walking distance from the cottage. We will return if it is available for our dates.

Within easy walking distance of shops if you are in good shape. Because of our age we elected to drive, less than 3 minutes from food or shopping. The Host was responsive to our texts and left us water, coffee pods and treats.

Great stay in Mount Dora! The description was accurate and the place was comfy, cozy and safe. The host was excellent in communication when we had questions. Response time was less than a minute. This is idea for Mount Dora as parking in downtown is limited. Short walk was easily accomplished and allowed to leave our car parked safely on the street across from the unit. We have stayed in the area over many years and this stay was hands down, the easiest and most enjoyable one! I highly recommend to anyone.
