What an absolute gem of a place. This is! Absolutely loved our stay. The hosts are absolutely kind, friendly, and available to help in any way. It was an absolute surprise and a blessing that they had a basket of little goodies for things we might have left at home or were feeling snackish at night. Great proximity to the downtown. 10 out of 10. Highly recommend and plan to stay again.

Sherre and Ron do an absolutely fabulous job as hosts to Le Petit Suite Cottage. The whole process from booking to check in ran very smooth and Sherry was available if needed. The cottage is so sweet and they have taken the time to think of everything you may need which was totally unexpected and appreciated! Mount Dora is a quaint town with lot’s to do and have many events. I will be going back and will certainly look forward to seeing Sherre and Ron as they felt like family…don’t hesitate!!

The hosts could not be better. The cottage was beautifully decorated for Christmas and was immaculate inside. The rate was very reasonable and appreciated that there were no pet fees or cleaning fees. I have already recommended this cottage. They had 3 bottles of wine for us, the kitchen was totally stocked with milk, orange juice, different types of coffees, teas, cereals, etc. I have never seen a place like this!!! Ann Finley

Thank you for writing a review. I’m confused though🥴. It sounds like a great review but you only gave us one star😔. Was something wrong? If so, please let me know so we can fix it! You and one other guest are the only ones to not give us 5 stars😢. He was upset with the WiFi which was out of our control.

About the host

Hosted by Ron and Sherre Baker

Host profile image
Ron and I are semi-retired and moved here to Mt. Dora from Miami in 2014 and just love it! We had been in Miami since the 1970's and were ready to slow down , a little! Our daughter discovered Mt. Dora and chose it as the location to open her dream custom cake shop and we followed her here! Greatest decision ever!!!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property at first sight because of the location and the beautiful grounds. It has only improved with time with beautiful greenery and flowers throughout the property.
