It was so loud when it kicked on, and ran for that matter. Other than that, it was fine. Very peaceful. I would definitely come back to this place! Thanks!

Couples / close friends vacay paradise

We stayed here for 5 days and were beyond comfortable the whole time. Fantastic fishing, beautiful sunsets, clear water and fishing / sunbathing on the dock. Very healthy lake. Not milky, swampy, none of that. Almost looks spring fed the way the aquatic vegetation grows perfectly with fish and baitfish abundant in the clear water. Panfish bit off the dock with bread and worms! As a Floridian, I’ve fished a lot of unhealthy and swampy waters, this lake is far from it. I wish all of our lakes were like this one! I brought my kayak and fished most of the time, probably caught 30+ bass just around the nearby reeds and shorelines. A few wake boarders, so just keep an eye out if you’re yakking. Lightning is the coolest, most friendliest cat I’ve known. Curls up in your lap and naps while you’re sitting outside. Extremely sweet to us. We are pretty private, and enjoy solitude on vacation, and even though the property shares the amenities, the other renters were equally as private, quiet, respectful and kind. Both were older couples on either side of us and were very nice people. The host is extremely communicative and helpful. Property is kept up very well, as well as all amenities. Nothing broken or unavailable to use. The homes seem to be very very modern, lovely new kitchen, great internet, easy to work from here too. I recommend checking out charming downtown Mount Dora and enjoying the lake as much as you can. I’ll be back for sure.

Wonderful property and location

Perfect for our stay. Location was great - easy drive to Mt Dora and golf courses. Unit was lovely. So so clean and comfortable. It’s not often we get a good nights sleep when away from home but this bed was great. Lake proximity and views just beautiful. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Amazing place, Not such an amazing greeting.

This is really an amazing place to stay at. Except, one thing I would recommend is that Bobbi and her mother get on the same page when guests will be arriving. When we backed into the driveway, the first thing we hear when we get out of the car is, “Can I help you?” I said, “we are here for the VRBO” Then she said, “I don’t think so, I’m Bobbi’s mother, we aren’t expecting anybody until tomorrow.” Then she kept watching us while she was on the phone to confirm that we were supposed to be there. I even unlocked the door with the code and told her that my code unlocked the door. Then she proceeded to tell us to keep the front door shut while we were bringing our bags inside so we wouldn’t let the air out. We pretty much just ignored her from that point. Also, we don’t mind using well-water either but on the first night, the water didn’t have the well-water smell, the second night, it did. So I don’t know if that was some kind of coincidence, just thought I’d mention it. It was just a bad customer service with the mom. We followed all of the rules and took pictures of how clean we left the place. Again, it’s a very beautiful and quiet property near my favorite town of Mount Dora but we definitely won’t be staying here in the future. God Bless, y’all.

About the host

Hosted by Bobbi Bain

I grew up in Florida and fell in love with Mt Dora when we moved to the area in 2014. As a local Realtor, I have a natural love for real estate! My husband is a touring musician, entertainer and pretty much travels for a living. Getting into Vacation rentals was a natural fit for both of us! We love to entertain and make our guests comfortable!

Why they chose this property

When this property became available in the Spring of 2019, we were immediately intrigued! We live in the area and have looked at homes on this lake for sometime. What an incredible opportunity to share this unique property and the joy of Lake Life with others! On over 2 acres, there is plenty of room to for multiple vacationers to get away.

What makes this property unique

Who wouldn’t want to stay on a beautiful spring fed private lake just a short drive from downtown Mt Dora!! Better yet, bring your friends and family! With a total of 5 different rentals, we have the ability to sleep up to 30 guests! This is the perfect place for a family reunion, team retreat, or even a small wedding!
