This was one of my FAVORITE places to stay. The host was AMAZING and made us feel at home during our stay. This place is a GEM! Spotless, great location and access with room to easily park our two truck's. The bed is VERY COMFORTABLE and we rested better there than our own home!! We will DEFINITELY be booking this again when we return to the area. I highly recommended The Side Gate
The Side Gate is just the cutest little place and absolutely perfect for our girls weekend getaway. Grace has thought of every amenity you could possibly need. The location is close to all the activites in Mt Dora. We loved it so much we are planning on coming back with our husbands! Thank you Grace for the welcome note and wine! Its the little touches that made this a fantastic weekend!!
