The Carlton* 3 min walk to Downtown Mt. Dora!!

This property is just a short 3-minute walk to the main shopping and dining district of Mount Dora. First time on the market this beautifully decorated 900 square foot 5 Star rental has been recently remodeled to reflect its carriage house feel.

A 65” 4K television that features Netflix and Hulu Live programming is available for your viewing pleasure. The kitchenette features sleek granite countertops, a stainless steel refrigerator with ice-maker, dishwasher and microwave as well as a Keurig coffee station. The island with bar stools and matching countertops features an induction cooktop. A ½ bath with full-size washer and dryer is immediately off the living room. As you enter the master suite you’ll notice a king-size bed with memory foam mattress with cooling gel and Egyptian cotton sheets. Handsome shiplap siding is featured in both the bedroom and on-suite bathroom. This bath features an over-sized walk-in shower to round out this nicely appointed space. The bedroom also includes a 55” 4K television. For additional guests, a sleeper sofa with a comfortable memory foam mattress is located in the living room. There is an outside porch with 2 bar height chairs where you can enjoy a glass of wine while you watch the sun go down!

Never disappoints!

This was our second stay at the Carlton and the third time we have stayed with Talia and Gabi. And, as usual, everything was perfect. From the happy birthday goodies to a quick text to walk us through the television, my husband and I felt welcomed and pampered! The property is clean and comfortable! If you are going to Mt. Dora, stay with them! You will not be disappointed!

Short mini vacation

Have been to Mount Dora before & wanted to stay close to town & in a nice place. The Carlton is all of that and more, it is a short 5 minute walk to the center of town and it is a 5 star place to stay. You are close enough to enjoy the town and all it has to offer and you are just far enough away to get the quietness that you are needing. We will definitely be back in the the fall!!!

Fabulous visit at The Franklin

The Franklin is a perfectly appointed home located within walking distance to all that Mount Dora has to offer. This is our second time staying at one of Talia’s rentals and we have had nothing but good experiences. The setup with the bedroom downstairs and it’s own wet bar and the pull out sofa upstairs with its own half bath was the ideal accommodation for our party. We look forward to returning!

Cozy and perfect!

What a perfect property for a visit to Mt. Dora! So close to everything, adorable neighborhood, and host Talia to help with whatever you need! Clean, so clean, well-decorated (I took notes for our next remodel!), amenities galore. Wine on arrival, soaps, shampoo, fluffy towels, extra pillows, comfortable sofa and chair, Keurig coffeemaker (with K cups!). The hard-bound book with all the important info is a nice touch because it’s easy to find and pretty, too! All in all, a really relaxing stay, but too short, so we will be back!
