Perfect stay
Has all you need including very comfy clean big beds and an extra twin! The luxury big reclining couch was a huge hit and perfect for watching a movie before bedtime or watching the news with coffee/tea in the morning! Easy walk to the lake, all the great food and shops in Mt Dora. We loved it so much we stayed an extra night.

1st Mt. Dora Trip
This was our first time being in Mt. Dora. Under the Palms was a perfect selection for us to stay. We had our 3-year old German Shepard with us and we had never seen him more relaxed. The location was perfect, a short 3 block walk into the downtown area, but far enough away that our dog could enjoy his daily walks through the neighborhoods without encountering a lot of people. Under the Palms is a nice 2 bedroom 1 bath unit with the owners nearby. The place was well kept and very clean. The beds were really comfortable which was great for resting after walking the street of Mt. Dora. The owners were very nice and even allowed us early check-in. We highly recommend considering Under the Palms when visiting Mt. Dora. We will definitely be returning.

We loved this little home away from home…..an escape for us from the big city to the charming small town of Mt Dora. Luanne and Randy instantly endeared themselves to us! Their rental was clean and confortable and had everything we needed. The location can’t be beat. We loved playing Pickleball a block and a half away and walking everywhere. Restaurants overlooking the lake were our favorites. We would highly recommend this idyllic spot.

The property was perfect. Great location - could not get much closer to downtown Mt. Dora. The owners were extremely friendly and reached out throughout the trip to ensure everything was going okay. The cottage was clean and stocked with everything a person would need. Would stay again for sure.

Perfect location for craft fair
The home was just perfect for our weekend stay to see family and go to the craft fair. The home is well appointed and comfortable. The owners communicated with us. They live onsite and we saw them throughout the weekend; kindly letting a family member park onsite to enjoy the short walk to the craft fair with us.

Wonderful and Relaxing Time
This property is located just 2 blocks from downtown Mt Dora! It’s an ideal location - close enough for shopping yet far enough away from the noise and traffic to relax in a lovely quiet neighborhood. The hosts were very attentive to our needs and quickly replied to any text messages. The home is well stocked with linens, blankets, towels, pillows as well as a fully stocked kitchen. On site parking for 1 car. If staying in Mt Dora, check out this pet friendly property. You won’t be disappointed. We will definitely be back!

Lovely location
This adorable property is located literally two blocks from downtown. We often travel with another couple so the fact that both bedrooms had king beds was a big deal. There’s only one bathroom and it needs remodeling or refurbishing. The owner of fabulous. We would recommend the property and would stay there again.

Perfect location!
Our needs included no stairs, close to shopping and restaurants, quite area and comfort. This house met all of those needs and more. The kitchen had everything we needed, the furniture and beds were comfortable and it was a short walk to downtown for shopping and eating. Off the main street, it was quiet and we enjoyed every minute of our stay.

Tremendous bang for your bucks
I want to be selfish and keep this place a secret. Spotlessly clean, comfortable beds, fully equipped kitchen and just a few blocks away from the heart of downtown Mt Dora and its cute shops and first-rate restaurants. Hosts are super-friendly, live next door and respond instantly to requests/issues. This was my third stay here; it won’t be the last.

Perfect Location
The location of the property was very convenient to downtown. It was easy to find. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable. When we arrived the air conditioner was set at the perfect setting for us so we didn't have to wait for the A/C to do it's job. LuAnne checked in on us and was super friendly. We will definitely stay here again when we are in the area! Thank you LuAnne!
