Cozy, comfy, clean cottage with comforts of home.

My husband and I stayed at this adorable cottage from 12/28 to 12/30, 2023. This little house is stocked with everything! It is within walking distance of downtown shops and restaurants which is handy because it is very hard finding parking in downtown Mount Dora. John, the property host, was more than helpful and responded right away to all communication. Everything was in perfect working order. We loved this immaculate, beautifully decorated house! It is roomier than it appears on the outside. It has a spacious bedroom with a super comfortable queen bed. There’s a window seat in the living room that serves as a double bed as well. The cottage was immaculately clean, too. Music was playing when we arrived, making it so welcoming. We didn’t cook or grill out on the patio since we chose to take advantage of the area restaurants during our short stay. But the kitchen is equipped with everything you can imagine (except for food and drinks of course). We ate at Pisces Rising Restaurant one night (delicious!) and at the Frog and Monkey another night. I’m not a french fry fan but if all fries were as good as the ones at the Frog and Monkey, I would be a french fry freak! We found the Highland Street Cafe to be the perfect breakfast spot. We strolled through so many fun shops, and parks, and down by beautiful Lake Dora. The Dickerman Cottage is the perfect place to call home while visiting Mount Dora. We wold love to book this cottage again and hopefully stay longer next time.

Charming Cottage You Won't Want To Miss!

We had a fabulous long weekend getaway in this perfectly located Mount Dora cottage! John's communication was stellar, his generosity is commendable, and the cottage felt like home from the moment we walked in! If you're planning a visit to Mount Dora, we highly recommend staying at the Dickerman Cottage! Thank you, again, John!
