About the host
Hosted by Wendy Appleby
Although we use to live in Orlando, we always wanted to move to Mt. Dora. With the purchase of a vacation home in 2011 and visiting the town on the weekends we soon decided to move to this delightful little town in 2012.
Although Mt Dora has a small town feel, that has been frozen in time, within 2 miles from the heart of town are all the modern restaurants, grocery stores and shops. We love to visit the light house for Sunset and it’s always so nice to be able to walk into town and not have to worry about parking.
We now live in the first home we purchased, which is in the historic downtown district and are available for any assistance you may need.
We love to shop and dine in downtown Mt Dora and it wouldn’t be unusual to run into us if your there. Don’t hesitate to contact us for the best kept secrets of town.
