Beautiful Home, Fantastic Location!

Lovely rental so close to all the shops, parks, restaurants, night spots, and nearby parks in beautiful Mt. Dora. Located In a very walkable neighborhood, and just one block from a nice city-maintained bike path. The home was extremely clean, and very well appointed with comfortable bed and furnishings. Owner was an absolute joy to work with, and I would both stay again, and highly recommend this property.

Perfect getaway!

Couldn’t recommend this home more! From the moment you pull up, the house is charming and clean. The inside was so spacious and they even had a bottle of wine waiting for us. Little did they know it was our wedding weekend which was such a fitting surprise. The porch was an amazing addition to the home as well. Everything was clean and felt so homey! Will definitely stay here again.
