Great Stay!

The check in process was extremely user friendly, the house itself had all the accommodations you would need for a weekend stay. We actually were here for a family wedding and had some family members at the house for a group dinner, this property was able to easily accommodate them and offer enough room to comfortably sit and enjoy a relaxing dinner. We would certainly book again and look forward to going back again someday.

This property was as advertised. We loved the location. It's an easy walk to downtown. We recommend PizzAmoré across the street.We found the house to be charming and spacious for our needs. I also enjoyed the backyard outdoor ambiance in the evening. Relaxing area.

Thank you so much, Jill. I love spending time in the backyard, near the fireplace with a scotch and a cigar and chatting with friends and family. Pizza Amoré is one of my wifes favorites as well. Either way, i am very glad you enjoyed your stay. Next time you're headed Mt. Dora, look us up again. Until then, happy travels!!

Weekend Getaway in Historic Mt Dora

Perfect for a weekend getaway. The house was spacious, clean and decorated for the holiday season. It was stocked with coffee, hot chocolate and some snacks. We enjoyed the short walk to the downtown area. We met friends for the Wine Walk, a lot of fun. In addition the host was very responsive.

This home is great for a group. There are 2 living areas, so if you were to have children, they could be watching TV in one of them and the adults could be in the other. Practically two full kitchens as well. The location is great for walking to the downtown area of Mt. Dora. The yard is large with plenty of seating. Host was super easy to reach if you needed him, and very accommodating. We were a group of 5 girls and had a blast there.

Dora's Dream is a delightful place to stay with a fabulous location close to historic Mount Dora. Everything is truly within walking distance. Doris's dream is set up, wonderfully for large groups or families. We were in town for my daughter's wedding. Staying at Dora's dream was myself, my two younger adult children with their spouses and two infants and a family friend. Having 4 nice size bedrooms was a dream. Plenty of room in the bedrooms for the babies portacribs. The house was stocked with plenty of coffee, and tea for morning relaxation. I could go on and on about Dora's Dream. Rest assured we would love to come back and have already encouraged family to check it out.

Best Doras Dream experience

Absolutely loved our stay at Dora's Dream! This place is a gem. The house itself is very spacious, clean, and beautifully furnished. It has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The beds are super comfy, the kitchen is well-equipped, and both living rooms are very cozy. The location is also perfect. It's just a short walk to the town, and there are plenty of local restaurants and shops nearby. This time we couldn't explore much of the surrounding area because it was raining and very cold, but looking forward to return and explore more of this beautiful town. I would highly recommend Dora's Dream to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay in Mount Dora. We will definitely be back again!

Great house

The house is spacious and clean. Well stocked. Great location. I would definitely rent it again. It would be helpful to have directions on how to operate air conditioner. Also, there are plenty of tvs but we couldn’t figure out what is available—cable? Netflix? I logged into my Hulu so we could watch tv. Everything else was great!

Hello Deborah, Thank you for the great review. I'm sorry you couldn't figure out the TVs. I always leave Netflix signed in so anyone could use it. Most of the TVs are Vizios with lots of free local channels and movies. Next time shoot me a message and Ill walk you through it. Thanks again, Ed & Barbara
