YOUR COTTAGE ON THE LAKE
About this cottage rental
This is both a cozy spot to return to in the evening and one to relax by, on, or in the lake during the day. The cottage is 1 mile from downtown Mount Dora, and all the wonderful sites for the small town. Thank you! Sharlyn

We were looking for a quiet, comfortable and clean place for a weekend getaway and that’s what we got, along with convenient access to the boat dock, kayak, and good fishing.
The quaint cottage is equipped with all the modern comforts that we hoped for and is located within a few minutes of grocery stores, shopping, restaurants and pubs, etc.
I was planning on taking the kayak out to fish but the bass were biting well off the dock so no need to try elsewhere. The lake is pristine and quiet. We heard owls in the distance before sunrise and after sunset and had an eagle fly directly over us.
There were no negatives to our stay. Highly recommend!

Unfortunately my partner became ill and we were not able to go. The owner at first offered to assist us with another weekend in the future to accommodate our situation but then the next day changed their mind and told us there was nothing they could do. They offered to refund the cleaning fee if I didn't go by myself but then never did that either. Really disappointing as it looked beautiful and I love Mt. Dora but I would not want to risk renting from them again.

Great location on Lake Gertrude about 1 mile from quaint downtown Mt. Dora. Has a private deck with a lake view. The cottage is small but it has a refrigerator, microwave, full bathroom, and comfy bed ... and it is bigger than a hotel room in Manhattan.

Beautiful location, steps from great fishing either on the beach with crystal clear water or off the dock. Bird sighting was awesome and the garden cabin is nestled in beautiful foliage that is straight out of a storybook. Absolutely magical. Owners extremely friendly/helpful. Bed kinda sucked and the bathroom is cramped but the overall experience made up of those two very minor details. Would absolutely visit again, highly recommended for a Mount Dora experience unlike any other.

The location and lake view are awesome! Everything I hoped for. The accommodations need a cleaning and updating. Not what I expected for the area.

This was our first stay in the cottage. We've stayed at various locations in the past. Location is beautiful and overlooking the lake under oak trees, Very quiet. Cottage is quaint, small, clean and suited our needs. Bed was comfortable. We aren't ones to spend a great deal of time in the room, so size of the room didn't matter. Just under 2 miles to downtown Mount Dora and restaurants. We would defintely stay again. Thank you.

This property is exactly as pictured and described! It was very clean and well-maintained. Its proximity to Mt. Dora is perfect, just a quick 5 minute drive. We also walked to the German bakery Backhaus for breakfast one morning. The cottage location is prime.
We enjoyed the view of the lake from both the little porch and also from the cottage. It was so serene, a perfect getaway to relax.
The owners were very responsive and reached out on our second day to ensure all was going well. We met David, one of the owners, by chance and he's a charming funny guy!
Highly recommend and I hope to come back another time! Thank you David and Sharlyn!
