Very comfortable, great ambience

We had a wonderful weekend getaway in this cottage. We spent almost the entire weekend in the cottage just relaxing. It had everything we needed and felt like a world away from our hectic lives. Felt right at home immediately upon entering. Thank you to the owner for making this cottage so comfortable, beautifully decorated, and allowing us to bring our dog!

Enjoyed the cottage so much my daughter and I stayed an extra night! The pull-out couch was most comfortable and gave us a two bed option. The cottage feels like home, but is so cute and perfect to Mt. Dora. Easy walk to main downtown shops and restaurants. I will return here.
