Weekend stay
The property is located in a cute, historic area of Mount Dora. It is in a short distance from the downtown area. The house was clean, organized and had different amenities available. There was also a book with a guide to the down town area.

Cute house
This is a really cute house. Slept very well in the king-sized bed. It is in a very nice neighborhood, loved seeing all of the Christmas lights on the neighboring houses! Bonus that is it within walking distance to all of the shops and restaurants in Mount Dora. We were, however, disappointed in a few things. The listing shows that there is a hot tub, there is no hot tub. The shower curtain in the big bathroom had mold/mildew on it. The toilet in the small bathroom, for some reason, developed a black residue in the bowl during our stay here...very strange! It would be nice if there was more towels/dish cloths and dishes for the kitchen. So all in all, we did enjoy our stay. Might need some tweaking on overall cleanliness and extra household items. Also, wish it had been warmer. But that's the risk you take during the winter time, even in Florida!

Hello, We're happy to hear you had a nice stay and thank you for your feedback. We're always striving to improve our guests stay and will address the issues you mentioned. I reviewed the listing and can't find anything about a hot tub? Are you sure it was this property? We have replaced the shower liner and in the hallway cabinet there are tons of towels. Again, we'll work hard to keep The Cozy Bungalow a special place in Mt Dora.

Cozy is….a stretch. I would say bare minimum. Bare minimum kitchen necessities, bare minimum bath linens and bare minimum bed linens, the pillows are about as flat as pancakes. Is it worth the money if all you’re looking for is a clean safe place to rest your head for a night or two? Absolutely but, do not at all expect any type of luxury, even electrical outlets are limited.

Great Mt. Dora Bungalow
Everything was clean and what one would expect in a nicely renovated bungalow cottage. Wi-fi worked well. Kitchen appliances worked fine. Somewhat unusual to have a full-sized dishwasher in a cozy-type home, but this one does. Happy to stay there again, next time I'm in town.

Excellent Time at the Bungalow. Highly Recommend.
Selecting this house was rather simple. It is within walking distance from Mont Dora Lake Side downtown area. The moment we arrived we just loved the feel of the neighborhood and of the house. It is truly a bungalow getaway. The property manager/owner was very pleasant on the phone. The house was clean, very comfortable plenty of closet space, and everything worked. The seating area in the car port area was so peaceful you could hear the wind rustle through the trees. I woke up early to be greeted by squirls running around and birds singing. It's such a cute little getaway house. Plenty of room and such a quite area. It is very easy drive to the Mont Dora downtown area with so much to do at a slower pace. The surrounding areas are also very beautiful and plenty of nature to see. I would highly recommend this house for a great weekend getaway in the Mont Dora area. The property manager/owner clearly communicates and provides everything you need within the VRBO app on your phone. Definitely going to be hitting up this spot again.

Quiet and convenient location
This comfortable cottage was very cozy and relaxing. The neighborhood is quiet and the location was very convenient. We were able to walk to dinner, shopping and to play pickleball. The bikes were a great addition and we enjoyed the bike path.

What a charming home! My husband and I travel to Mt. Dora on a regular basis. We adored this house! Very close to town and in a quaint, quiet neighborhood.

The cottage did not disappoint! I have 2 suggestions-a reading light or lamps for the master bedroom & the living area & instructions of how to operate the t.v. We were unable to watch the t.v. Luckily we were o.k. without it but there should have been written instructions! One other thing-Kleenex in the bathroom. You were so well stocked with everything except that. We thought the cottage was adorable, very clean and decorated with inviting colors. Loved the linens! We would happily stay there again!

Everything was beyond our expectations. The house really had a "at home" feeling and the location was just a short walk from Downtown. When we come back to Mount Dora we would love to able to stay at this home again.
