The house is very close to downtown, easy to walk. Very clean and cute. We had an issue with the A/C and the property manager was there and had it fixed within the hour. Very impressive! We definitely recommend this house, and will stay there again should the need arise.

This house is amazing! It is beautifully decorated, historically preserved, and still modern. We would LOVE to come back again. It is close to downtown, great local food, and you can walk to the coffee shop every morning if you’d like. The hostess was incredibly gracious and friendly.

Wonderful stay

The house was the perfect size for our family. We could have local family visit us on the outdoor deck and indoor space without feeling squeezed. It’s a very comfortable, cozy home. We would come back!

I was traveling with my pups as we searched for a new home in the area. Gabi was a wonderful host and had a perfect set up for guests with pets including clear expectations printed out. The outdoor space was fenced and had an area just for the dogs. The laundry room was a perfect spot for food and water dishes. My girls settled in very quickly and once their beds were laid on the floor they made themselves quite at home. I loved all the decorative details. Even tried the scavenger hunt a previous guest left. I really enjoyed the outdoor spaces in back. We brought scooters and rode downtown so easy. Loved it all. Thank you.

Farewell and thank you for a lovely stay.

Our Christmas getaway

Our experience in this home, with Gabi and in Mt Dora was great. The home was fully stocked with everything we needed. Although we brought our own supplies to cook our Christmas dinner, everything we needed was there. We love historical/ old homes and this house checks all boxes. Creeks in the wooded staircase, wavy/ bubbled glass in the windows, the fireplace lit and living room warm upon our arrival. There are many unique decorations throughout the home including small mushrooms all around. We actually challenged each other to see if we could count/ find them all. Everything was clean. No complaints!!!The walk to Downtown Mt Dora was approximately 8-9 minutes. The Christmas tree and lights were incredible. If you’re looking to stay in an old historic home that’s pet friendly and minutes from downtown, we recommend this home. (This home is in a historic neighborhood so you should understand that other old homes may not be fully restored yet. It just adds to the charm of the area. We say this due to other comments we have read regarding dilapidated properties in the area. It does not take away from the experience and or this home).
