Perfect Cottage
Everything was very clean. Very easy to find. It was enough space for 2 couples for a weekend. The whole property is picture perfect. It was our 1st time in Mt. Dora and we will definitely come back!

Delightful cottage!
This cottage was perfect for three adults who came for a girls weekend. We used the pull out which was comfortable. The unit is nicely appointed with everything we needed (we did not cook) and the location is a one mile walk to town.

The cottage (actually an apartment to the rear of the main house) was clean, uniquely decorated and comfortable. It worked out great for two couples. It was really nice to have the kitchenette. We had questions a couple times and Frank responded quickly. The only thing that is a tad misleading is the price per night. Definitely check the figure that includes the fees (housekeeping and booking) which in our case doubled the amount. That being said, it was still a good value. We would stay here again.

Nice little cottage
Wonderful location, just a few minutes walk to center of Mount Dora. Quiet neighborhood. The kitchenette was adorable and had everything you could need. Very clean. Secure entry. Beds were comfortable though small, but my husband and I didnt mind not sharing for the week. Easy drive to Disney. Mount Dora is a lovely town.

Great Weekend Getaway
Cottage is within walking distance of downtown and restaurants. Between the main house and cottage there is a breezeway that is very nice to sit in. Too cold out to take advantage of patio and firepit. We stayed at this property for two weeks. Not a full kitchen, so making meals was challenging. House decor was nice. Bedrooms had lots closet space. Beds were not as comfortable as we would have liked. Plenty of towels/linens. Overall our stay was enjoyable. We would recommend for a great weekend getaway. Location and neighborhood very nice

I must say Frank was a very nice man. We had our dog with us and found out that there was a wedding party reception happening the weekend my wife and I were staying there. He understood my concerns about the noise and aske the other party to have respect for us staying in the adjacent cottage. I will say that my wife and I frequently visit the Mt.Dora area and we would definitely will stay there again. Thank you Frank.

Great little escape in Mt. Dora
Cottage was a great place to re-energize after watching beach volleyball in Tavares for a weekend. Four adults slept comfortably, with the bonus of 2 full baths, and an efficiency kitchen. It was a quiet getaway to return to each night. We didn't have the opportunity to explore downtown Mt. Dora, but would definitely return to take advantage of the property's proximity to that quaint shopping and dinning area.

My lawn bowls partner and I stayed at this property for a lawn bowls tournament. We choose the cottage because it had two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The cottage was clean and very quiet. We felt safe and secure while there and would return again.

Enjoyed quaint cottage
We stayed a week here and enjoyed the Mount Dora art festival. It was very clean, cozy, and convenient. Only a short walk to a couple of local restaurants, 15 minutes to town. A very quiet and safe neighborhood, with plenty of parking on the property. We enjoyed the backyard and common areas, which we shared with other renters while we were there. The kitchen is well set up for enjoying breakfast and warming up leftovers. There is a cooktop, toaster, microwave, coffee maker,and mini fridge. Had a fun and relaxing stay.

Great cottage and location
We had a wonderful stay at this cottage, which is exactly as pictured. Downtown Mt. Dora (with pickleball courts) is less than a mile, and we brought bikes to quickly ride around. We loved having a locked Breezeway to the cottage where we could easily store our bikes. Property manager was very responsive to any questions. Would stay here again.
