Summary: We stayed at this location for two weeks and absolutely loved our time there. Its location was ideal as our trip included stops in St. Augustine, Orlando and of course Mt. Dora. The house was clean and prepped for our stay. The bedrooms were big and nicely decorated. The common space was also immaculate and comfortable. Cannot recommend the house more.

Summary: I was in Mt Dora dealing with family affairs and needed a peaceful place to stay to gather my thoughts. From the moment I walked in, I knew this was the perfect spot. From the charming decor, cleanliness, dedicated workspace, WiFi, to the thoughtfully stocked coffee and tea bar, this hidden gem was exceptional. I would gladly come back & sip my coffee in the cozy Florida room. Absolute zen!

Summary: Three Oaks Cottage was an ideal rental. The cleanliness was outstanding! We loved the front porch and the yard space. The home was fully equipped with extra linens, paper goods, laundry supplies, and a fully stocked kitchen that included spices and baking supplies! For us, the location was perfect; we could walk to our son's home, just a couple of blocks away. We are hoping to re-book in a couple of months. We enjoyed a wonderful stay!
