Fantastic location

Very well maintained and clean property. Very nice. Excellent location. Less than a 5 minute walk to the main area. The host was easy to communicate with and check in/out was simple. My boyfriend and I stayed here for two days and loved it. It was the perfect getaway.

Amazing location and unit

We had a wonderful stay. The unit is close to everything you want to see and do in town, without being too close that you have noise. The host was very accommodating and easy to work with. Highly recommend.

Perfect getaway!

Couldn’t recommend this home more! From the moment you pull up, the house is charming and clean. The inside was so spacious and they even had a bottle of wine waiting for us. Little did they know it was our wedding weekend which was such a fitting surprise. The porch was an amazing addition to the home as well. Everything was clean and felt so homey! Will definitely stay here again.

Seeing in the new years

The property is in excellent condition and location is very walkable. We planned on eating out but for those wanting to eat at home there is little locally for groceries and would need to plan to stop ahead or bring along.With it being a duplex expected some noise. Unfortunately a poor dog was left alone for long periods and cried some of the time

PERFECT WEEKEND

Adorable and quaint, perfectly designed, immaculately clean, 1-bedroom spacious townhouse in downtown Mt Dora. They paid attention to every detail on everything you need for your home away from home. Even your car will be happy in the garage. Literally bring your suitcase that’s all you need. Less than two minutes from everything in Mt. Dora. Our weekend at the craft show couldn’t be better knowing we were minutes away to relaxation. We will be back!
