About this property

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.

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!

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.

Place is very quaint and clean. We had privacy being at the end, but didn't get to utilize the lake because of the weather. We brought our bicycles. Although you cannot bike to town, you must check out the trail in Minneola and Clermont. Bonnie was great with responding to my messages.

Cute cottage in quiet area.

We were in town for a family wedding and this cottage was perfect for the two of us. The place was clean and it was not far from everything we wanted to do. We were able to walk down to the lake and enjoy the beautiful view. The town of Mt Dora was so fun. We would recommend the downtown area.

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.

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.

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.
