The cottage was exactly as depicted cosy and very clean. The kitchen had everything you needed and the amenities are top notch! Wonderful hostess and a very nice place to stay. The best stay we have had and we highly recommend it.
This is the second time we have stayed at Blue Oak Cottage and just like the first time this experience was just as fabulous. The hosts are wonderful and very accommodating. The cottage is so quaint with a truly homey feel. I would recommend this listing to anyone visiting Mt Dora.
This was an amazing property. Comfortable, inviting and no detail missed. Todd and Teresa are wonderful host and we will definitely be back. Don't miss out on this wonderful cottage.
This is the second time we have stayed in this lovely cottage. The cottage is well equipped, clean & beautifully furnished. It is in a great location & easily walkable to the town centre. The owners ensure all your needs are catered for and we highly recommend staying in this cottage.
Great location, easy to get downtown and to the lake. Owners were fantastic, we were able to check in early and check out late. Everything in the cottage was fantastic and thoughtfully planned out. Will always recommend and stay on any other trip to Mt Dora
The Blue Oak cottage was adorable, clean, cozy and very well stocked. The hosts put a lot of love and care into the place, and we had everything we needed for a perfect visit. I enjoyed my morning coffee on the screened porch - just lovely!
Exceptional VRBO. It had everything you might need for a week stay. Close to virtually everything, one or two miles. Very quiet and clean with super air conditioning. Theresa and Todd are great hosts.
Todd and Theresa have tastefully decorated the cottage. The cottage is very clean, comfortable and convenient to restaurants and downtown. Todd and Theresa are the perfect hosts.

This cottage was awesome and even better than the high reviews that it already has. We had a wonderful time and the location is perfect. An easy walk to town for shopping and dining. I highly recommend this cottage and can't wait to return.

Thank you for bringing your dogs with you - we enjoyed meeting them as well as you both! And thank you for the review - please try us again in the future!
My husband and I both grew up in Florida; however, life moved us around the United States as we finished school, my husband served in the military, and we followed our careers as a pilot and nurse. Now back in Florida, we fell in love with the small-town charm of Mount Dora, with the amenities of Orlando not too far away.
Why they chose this property
Also known as "The Festival City", Mount Dora is a historic central Florida town located on the shores of Lake Dora -- and is home to antique stores, boutiques, art galleries, restaurants, and some of the oldest and largest festivals in Florida every year. From Renningers Antique Center and Flea Market down to the small bakeries and coffee shops of downtown, my husband and I are in love with the Mount Dora!
