Lake Vibes Only ~ Intimate Lake Cottage in Mount Dora

Lake Vibes Only Property~ Never miss a sunset, the views from the windows are fabulous! Take a nice walk down to the lake and enjoy coffee from the dock or a morning paddle in one of our kayaks. Quirky yet charming, this 1952 cottage was once a Fish Camp. The original home was less than 150 sq ft, just large enough for a couple cots. Over the years space for a kitchen and full bathroom were added and eventually the front patio was enclosed. Now celebrating its 70th birthday, this holiday home has been fully renovated, eclectically decorated and includes plenty of fresh linens, kitchen essentials, coffee, wi-fi, and an outdoor grill and private patio facing the Lake.
Traveling with a large group? We have 4 additional cottages available on this property. Sunset (9459905) and Sunrise (2011321) Cottage are each 2 bedroom, 1 bath and sleep up to 4 each. Firefly Cottage (1723316) is a 2 bedroom 2 bath and will sleep up to 8, and lastly Lakey Daze Cottage(2394935) is a 3 bedroom 3 bath and will sleep up to 13.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Lakeside gem!

We couldn’t get enough of sitting on the dock and enjoying the sunset, lake breeze and watching the fish and birds! Cottage was clean and had cute decor! We never saw the resident cat, as others described.. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Weekend Getaway

We had a great time at the lake! The house was adorable, clean and very comfortable. The lake is beautiful; we enjoyed kayaking and sitting on the dock. Mount Dora was a quick 10 mins away and has amazing food and shops. We will definitely be returning!

Lake Vibes Only

When we arrived at the cottage my code (last 4 digests of cell ) it did not work. We had an issue with locating Bobbi because her phone number was nowhere to be found. There was a bug guy there spraying the grounds and he was able to give me Bobbi's number, which Bobbi stated there was a glitch with the computer and gave us another code to enter. Perhaps she could have reached out to me with info? But all in all, we had a very pleasant time. Enjoyed everything about the cottage. I would go back again.

Fantastic!

This lovely cottage exceeded our expectations. If I could give it 10 out of 5 stars I would. Perfect for two people – I kayaked every morning – after enjoying coffee from the dock. The property is tranquil. Lake Ola is gorgeous. We’d end our day stargazing in the rocking chairs on the porch, or on the dock. The cottage is spotless. Keurig coffee maker, and a comfortable size kitchen with all we needed. I think it’s the cleanest VRBO I have ever stayed at. The bed was so comfortable – we slept great. Finally there is a super cool bonus cat that visited the property outside - he must’ve lived somewhere near the cottage…very sweet. The host was also great and communicated quickly and clearly. We will book again!

Quiet getaway during the holidays

We liked the cottage and the access to the dock for fishing. The neighborhood is quiet but close to Tavares and Mount Dora downtowns for Christmas and restaurants. We come up to the area at least yearly and would stay again when in the area.

Very Happy to stay here.

The landlady was very generous. Because of the heavy rains before our arrival she upgraded us up to larger cottage. The only small issue was town was a 10 minute drive.

Anniversary weekend

Bobbi was a great host. The place was clean and close to mount Dora. Unfortunately due to conditions from the hurricanes we were unable to access the lake and some other stuff .Bobbi did do her best to accommodate us. We would stay again under better circumstances to try to enjoy the lake.

Amazing Cottage for a Weekend Getaway

We enjoyed our stay in Mount Dora more than we ever expected! The cottage was perfect and the word I kept coming back to was whimsical! Lightning, our personal greeter was an added highlight to the weekend! The town was quaint yet there was a lot to do and see. We will definitely be back, and when we do, we would love to stay here again!

Charming Cottage in the lake with a bonus lovely cat.

We loved everything on our stay there, the cottage was cozy and beautifully decorated we had fun enjoying the kayaks and fishing at the lake, the proximity with all the amenities in downtown is excellent - but what really made everything special was Lightning the cat that came to welcome us as soon as we arrived, my 3-year-old daughter fell in love with Lightning and after we left she continues to talk about the cat and how she misses Lightning until today, it was beautiful to see how they attached to each other, we even bough some snacks and left there for Lightning. We would love to come back to this place anytime. Beautiful and relaxing little cottage.

Relaxing stay

Overall great stay. Minor glitch with clogged condensation line in the AC leaking on the floor was repaired and cleaned immediately due to great communication with the owner. AC took forever to cool the unit as it appeared it hadn’t been run. Only complaints are tiny bathroom and could use much more outdoor lighting.
