Summary: We stayed in Fisherman’s Cottage for 2 nights at the end of our stay in Florida, We wish had found this gem earlier in our trip. The cottage is stunning and beautifully decorated and adorned with amazing fish related artwork. Appliances were all high end as was the bedding and all was spotlessly clean. The cottage is a 10 minute walk to the main centre of Mount Dora where you find plenty of restaurants and bars, and access to Lake Dora, where a boat tour is well worth doing. Mount Dora is a lovely place to visit and would not hesitate to recommend Fisherman’s Cottage as a great place to stay. Liz and Lee are delightful hosts, nothing too much trouble for this fabulous couple .

Summary: We had an amazing stay at this property! The cottage was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. Even fish themed snacks in the fridge! The kitchen was fully stocked, the beds were incredibly comfortable, and we loved the sheets and pillows. Peaceful outdoor space — perfect for morning coffee or evening wine.The location was ideal, close to downtown Mount Dora and all the great shops and restaurants. Communication with the Liz and Lee was smooth and prompt, and check-in was super easy.We truly felt like we were at a home away from home. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the area!

Summary: We were amazed how lovely the cottage was and so clean and stocked with everything you can imagine. Liz is over the top friendly and makes sure your stay will be wonderful making sure we had all we needed. We went to Leesburgh bike fest, which was only 15 minutes away. Everything else in town was walking distance. We happen to be there at the same time as the blueberry festival and that was very charming as well. We would definitely return to this cottage as the hospitality, the Cleanliness and most of all the artsy decor, especially finding some hidden gems! Loved it !

Summary: It’s not often that you get to go somewhere that is highly rated, that exceeds your expectations, but this was it. First of all the host was top notch with communication, not too much but just the right amount. The property is located a couple of minutes away from downtown and the antique market. Every detail of the cottage is well thought out and it makes it hard to want to leave. So much thought and love went into the care of the Fisherman's cottage and our experience was so great that I would only consider staying at the host property if I return to Mount Dora.

Summary: We’re two couples fortunate to find this dream cottage available for two weeks in February! I remember seeing the listing for this rental when searching in past years, but because of the fisherman name and the low price for a two bed/2 bath, I didn’t click on it as I wrongly assumed it was an average place for guys who came to Mount Dora to fish the many lakes. Boy was I wrong! I mean, yes, it would be great for that, and my husband definitely loved the house as much if not more than I did, but when searching this year, I was desperately clicking on everything available because I had waited so long to book. Turned out it was just what I look for when visiting Florida… Nautical theme, historic yet feels new, quaint and quiet neighborhood, washer/dryer, CLEAN, very comfortable beds, high-quality bedding, and towels, large closets, one walk-in shower, one shower/tub… And then to push it over the top.. Large screened in porches to sit and read or watch the people walking downtown & back, a house stocked with everything you could possibly need, birdfeeder to watch the birds out the kitchen window every morning, and OH MY the high-end decor that kept us all saying “can you believe this?” You don’t have to be an art aficionado to enjoy and appreciate the love care and expense that has gone into this lovely rental by the nicest host you could ask for. Liz has a talent for decorating and a passion for hosting. Her goal is truly for her guests to have a joyous stay!!

Summary: The Fisherman’s Cottage in Mount Dora, Florida is the kind of place that’s easy to drift into — clean, quiet, and swimming with thoughtful details and artful aquatic-themed touches that made our stay both comfortable and visually inspiring. From the moment we walked in, it was clear this wasn’t just another drop in the sea of short-term rentals. The cottage was spotless — like, freshly reeled-in kind of clean — and so well stocked we barely had to unpack. From makeup remover to farm-fresh eggs straight from the hosts’ own chickens, it felt the hosts had thought of everything before we knew we needed it.The ocean-inspired décor goes way beyond a few decorative fish. This place is a mini gallery of sculptural sea creatures — octopuses, fish, and more — from artists with some serious global flair. It’s creative, quirky, and full of personality — like staying in the guest house of an art-loving, well-traveled mermaid.Speaking of thoughtfulness, Liz and Lee were wonderful hosts. They were there when needed, never hovering, and always making sure things were going swimmingly. Their attention to detail and the care they put into the space stood out.The location is peaceful, with Mount Dora’s downtown charm just a short drive or walk away. Mornings were best spent sipping coffee on the porch, with birds visiting the feeder just outside the kitchen window and fresh eggs waiting in the fridge.In short, we'd drop anchor here again in a heartbeat — this place reeled us in.

Summary: We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful fisherman’s cottage! From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the charming coastal decor, a variety of artful creatures from the sea , and peaceful atmosphere. Every detail of the home was thoughtfully designed, from the cozy, sea-inspired furnishings to the well-stocked kitchen—perfect for cooking the amazing organic eggs we were welcomed with when we arrived.The location was ideal—just steps from historic downtown Mount Dora, with easy access to local quaint shops, and delicious restaurants. We especially loved sipping coffee on the deck each morning listening to the birds chirp. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and provided everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay.If you're looking for a serene retreat with all the charm of a classic cottage steps from downtown Mount Dora, this is the place! We can't wait to come back.
