e absolutely loved our two-night stay over the Fourth of July weekend! Watching the fireworks from the front porch was such a special experience, and we also had a wonderful time exploring Mount Dora. The house is beautiful—a charming older home full of character and warmth. It was cozy, welcoming, and made our trip even more memorable. We would definitely love to come back. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
