Quiet and peaceful yet walk to Charming Downtown MT. Dora

This unique property is at the end of E. 5th Ave in a quiet neighborhood with a conservation area on one side and Lake in the back. It is in a quiet neighborhood yet walking distance to Mt. Dora with all of its quaint shops, restaurants and activities. There is always something going on in Mt. Dora and you can get a complete list of activities by googling Mt. Dora on the internet. The property is .8 miles to Downtown Donnelly Park
The Uptown Nature Retreat is accessed on the left side of the house next to the Conservation area with lots of butterflies and birds. As you walk into the house you are in the living room with dining area and access to the screened in back porch. The kitchen is fully equipped with plenty of counter space and a counter seating area for dining. The livIng room has a large screen TV with a DVD, Netflix and Amazon Prime. The master bedroom has a king sized bed, full bath and a sitting area with TV. A second bedroom has twin beds and it’s own full bath with shower and separate door to the outside.
The large back porch overlooks a huge fenced in yard overlooking Lake Franklin and is a great place to relax in the morning with a cup of tea or coffee or have a cocktail in the afternoon. The house is shaded by large oak trees that keep the house cool and comfy. A washer and dryer is also available for your use.
Lake Franklin is a private lake and a Great Lake to fish or canoe or kayak in. I don’t have kayaks at this time but feel free to bring your own.
We love pets that are well behaved and house trained and charge 25$ per pet per stay.

Mt. Dora Stay for a Family Wedding
My husband, my sister and I agree - your place is above outstanding! The pleasure of sitting on the porch, enjoying the birds as they came to the feeders, relaxing in the serene setting was outstanding. Inside was perfectly decorated and comfortable, everything looked new and well kept, very comfortable beds and linens, fully equipped kitchen - each touch was beautifully coordinated. This was the most carefully decorated and comfortable of any rental we have experienced, with the most appealing porch view. Location is outstanding, easy to reach local destinations. Mt. Dora is a visitors’ delight. The Host’s communications were outstanding - clear, helpful and complete. We could not be more pleased! The Woods

Backyard was peaceful/free taxi was fun
Loved all the birds in the morning and early evening with all the bird feeders. Porch is so comfy and peaceful. Taxi into town was fun. Very clean, bed comfy. Only complaint wish there was a small TV in the other bedroom. Jamiee was very responsive.

A Nice Surprise
Property was located walking distance from Downtown Mt. Dora. We stayed during that weekend's Arts & Crafts Festival along with wonderful weather. The unit is located conveniently behind the main one. It was spacious with two nice sized bedrooms, two bathrooms, comfortable kitchen and a screened porch with a beautiful view. Understandably and due to Hurricane Milton, the backyard was semi-wet limiting its walking area, but it maintained its beauty giving you a glimpse of what to look forward to during our next stay. The kitchen was graciously stocked well with a variety of tools and supplies for any cook to survive with. Beds were tidy with clean sheets and clean towels. The only complaint I had was that the back bedroom with twin beds did not get cooled enough, but we overcame. Thank you, we look forward to doing it again.

Relaxing lake stat
We had a great stay. The unit is attached to the owners home but we had plenty of privacy! The home was clean and beds were comfortable. The bird feeders brought constant birds into the serene back yard. My fiance enjoyed his time on the lake. He went out every single day and caught over 60 fish during our stay. This was the perfect location to mount Dora and the owner was responsive and helpful.

We spent most of our time in the back porch enjoying the birds and butterflies! Such a relaxing backyard. Took the taxi out to dinner which was great cause we didn’t have to find a place to park. Shopping and the food in Mt Dora was great. Would definitely come back again.

This house is fabulous! So clean, updated, and very spacious. We can’t say enough good things about this property. The outdoor area is top tier. We loved all the plants and butterflies. A short walk to downtown or even shorter drive. The walk was nice to see the neighborhood. We wished our stay had been longer. 5 stars!

Great location
My husband and I had family to visit for the weekend and this house was in a great location. John the taxi driver in the golf cart picked us up and dropped us at the Lakeside Inn , just leave him a tip, such a lovely guy. The house is very comfortable, 2 bedrooms , comfy beds , well stocked kitchen although we only had breakfast and headed out for the day. Definitely book again when I'm in the area . Thank you Jamie and great communication.

Lovely cottage
This is a well-appointed, very clean bungalow. The grounds are charming and very native and eco-friendly. The owner was quick to respond to the two questions we had. The screen-in porch provided a lovely spot to sit as well as did the sitting area in the back yard. This location was a quick hop to downtown. All in all, a lovely getaway.
