Great house and location
This is my second time staying here and it was great, once again. The location is super convenient and the homeowner is very responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay close to downtown, yet still in a quiet location.

Very comfortable, just 2 blocks from downtown, there was 3 of us so we had plenty of room. The weather was beautiful and we love to set outside to drink coffee and visit so we were disappointed that the front and back porches were dirty.

Mount Dora Storytellers
Its a little startling to walk in the front door and be greeted by a bathroom, but once we were used to that, the property worked well. Communication with the host went smoothly and concerns were quickly resolved. The house is in an ideal location, being close to downtown and the Lakeside Inn where the storytelling festival was held. I would, however, hesitate to try and sleep 8 there.

Great location to downtown and you have the ability to park your car and walk where you need to go. House was just as described. Property owners were accessible when needed. We would recommend people to stay there.
