Very cute, clean cottage in a gorgeous neighborhood near Lake Gertrude. The host had snacks and cold beverages waiting for us on arrival...very nice touch. Mattress was not the most comfortable for us, but overall, a great value. Very convenient to downtown Mt. Dora.

Barbra & Mace were very accommodating to all our needs. The kitchen is well stocked for a lengthy stay and cooking in. The bedroom is cozy and comfortable.The location is perfect for a walk along lake Gertrude. A longer walk or very short drive to reach all the action in downtown Mount Dora is also convenient.This was our second stay and will definitely be going back.
