Incredible, cute little place right in the middle of the adorable Mt Dora town! Service was incredible and Rachael responded immediately to all our questions. My fav was asking to keep our car parked and hearing "when you're a guest, youre family!." We will stay again!

Nice stay

Cozy inn - very walkable as it’s right downtown. We were comfortable. The space was quiet. Breakfast from the cafe a few doors down was tasty. Hosts were welcoming and friendly. I’d gladly stay here again.

Our stay was awesome and staff went out of their way to accommodate our needs and requests. However, our room was not cleaned/made throughout our stay. We came back at night from walking the downtonwn district and our bed was intact.

Lovely inn and bedroom. Less than 5 minutes walk to the centre. Breakfast is in a local restaurant which is a shame as we were looking forward to eating in the inn.

Mount Dora Charm

We stayed at a small historic inn in Mount Dora. Our room was very comfortable on the first floor. Coded entry made it easy to enter and exit. They had snack, coffee and water available at no charge. We received two breakfast vouchers for a nearby restaurant (just a block away. We are located in the downtown area and can walk everywhere. Excellent place to stay.
