Charming cottage getaway
We stayed a long weekend and had everything we needed at this updated historic cottage just blocks from downtown. We used almost every amenity Steve offers including fire pit, his bikes (since you are only 100’ from the bike trail- just dust off and top off tires.). He provides shampoo, conditioner, soap, basic kitchen necessities (salt, pepper and oil) just bring your favorite coffee and groceries. The king bed was very comfy (we always travel with our own pillows) and we watched the basic TV and Netflix but went up to Jeremiah's to watch the football games. We did a load of laundry before we left and dryer did not get hot but Steve was quick to respond and kept in touch about getting it repaired. We loved the quiet neighborhood, close proximity to downtown, parks and lake. We ate most meals out. Highly recommend this property!

Lovely stay
My best friend had her 40th birthday in beautiful Mt Dora. What a lovely little town. The house was clean and comfy. Kind size bed is very comfortable as well. We didn’t stay in the house besides to sleep, but we had everything we needed! Thank you for making our stay care free.

Great home in Mt. Dora
I stayed in the bungalow for nearly a week while visiting my parents in Mt. Dora. The house is close to their retirement community, in a great neighborhood for morning walks and quiet evenings (except July 4th), and close to the town center. It was perfect and I’ll definitely be returning.

Exactly what we needed
Short stay to visit family. Quaint, cozy, quiet and comfortable. Walk into town was a breeze. Needed long pants for event that I forgot to pack - so utilized the available bikes to ride to Target. Everything we needed was at our fingertips. Would definitely stay again.

Close to town.
We were visiting my Brother who is a resident and he was 11 blocks away on Grandview. Quiet neighborhood, no barking dogs, no neighbors yelling, no baby’s crying. We have to visit him because he can’t breathe in Colorados high altitude. When we do I’ll make sure this little gem is available!

Weekend stay
The property is located in a cute, historic area of Mount Dora. It is in a short distance from the downtown area. The house was clean, organized and had different amenities available. There was also a book with a guide to the down town area.

Cute house
This is a really cute house. Slept very well in the king-sized bed. It is in a very nice neighborhood, loved seeing all of the Christmas lights on the neighboring houses! Bonus that is it within walking distance to all of the shops and restaurants in Mount Dora. We were, however, disappointed in a few things. The listing shows that there is a hot tub, there is no hot tub. The shower curtain in the big bathroom had mold/mildew on it. The toilet in the small bathroom, for some reason, developed a black residue in the bowl during our stay here...very strange! It would be nice if there was more towels/dish cloths and dishes for the kitchen. So all in all, we did enjoy our stay. Might need some tweaking on overall cleanliness and extra household items. Also, wish it had been warmer. But that's the risk you take during the winter time, even in Florida!

Cozy is….a stretch. I would say bare minimum. Bare minimum kitchen necessities, bare minimum bath linens and bare minimum bed linens, the pillows are about as flat as pancakes. Is it worth the money if all you’re looking for is a clean safe place to rest your head for a night or two? Absolutely but, do not at all expect any type of luxury, even electrical outlets are limited.

Great Mt. Dora Bungalow
Everything was clean and what one would expect in a nicely renovated bungalow cottage. Wi-fi worked well. Kitchen appliances worked fine. Somewhat unusual to have a full-sized dishwasher in a cozy-type home, but this one does. Happy to stay there again, next time I'm in town.

Excellent Time at the Bungalow. Highly Recommend.
Selecting this house was rather simple. It is within walking distance from Mont Dora Lake Side downtown area. The moment we arrived we just loved the feel of the neighborhood and of the house. It is truly a bungalow getaway. The property manager/owner was very pleasant on the phone. The house was clean, very comfortable plenty of closet space, and everything worked. The seating area in the car port area was so peaceful you could hear the wind rustle through the trees. I woke up early to be greeted by squirls running around and birds singing. It's such a cute little getaway house. Plenty of room and such a quite area. It is very easy drive to the Mont Dora downtown area with so much to do at a slower pace. The surrounding areas are also very beautiful and plenty of nature to see. I would highly recommend this house for a great weekend getaway in the Mont Dora area. The property manager/owner clearly communicates and provides everything you need within the VRBO app on your phone. Definitely going to be hitting up this spot again.

Quiet and convenient location
This comfortable cottage was very cozy and relaxing. The neighborhood is quiet and the location was very convenient. We were able to walk to dinner, shopping and to play pickleball. The bikes were a great addition and we enjoyed the bike path.

My wife and I are both in the real estate industry and own a brokerage firm in Orlando, FL named Kona Realty Services. We are both graduates from the University of Central Florida and have three great kids. We work hard and play hard and bungalow is the most relaxing place we know. We get to visit several times a year and enjoy snowboarding, fishing and just relaxing.

We fell in love with the charm of Mt Dora and enjoy the art festival, Christmas parade and many other events the city has to offer. We also take our boat and explore all the lakes in the area.

What makes this property unique

The bungalow is walking distance to downtown and we also have bikes for guests use.
