The house is well maintained, so are the grounds. There are plenty of rooms for families. The lanai is large enough to accommodate. The garage is prefect addition to park most vehicles. The location is near most tourist attractions and hidden adventures.
Very comfortable home, love the screened patio in back. People in mt Dora were so friendly too that we canât wait to come back and stay at this place!!!!
I would recommend this to anyone looking to stay in Mt. Dora. Comfortable beds, room to entertain. I canât say enough good things. I will definitely be staying here again when I am in town.
We stayed 5 nights at this property. It was a beautiful home on grounds just as beautiful. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for accommodations in Mount Dora, Fl.
Could not have asked for a better place to stay. Cozy and accommodating in every way. Lovely area and convenient to everywhere I needed to be. Hope to be able to stay in this home again in the future!
We had a wonderful stay, over Thanksgiving break, at Shell Cottage. The location is perfect and the house was adorable. We had everything we needed for our stay. The lanai and gardens are wonderful and the proximity to the walking trail around Lake Gertrude was great. Beautiful sunsets! Would like to stay at Shell Cottage again in the future!
This is the most convenient to our destination Vrbo we've stayed in yet! It was clean, well appointed, located in a nice neighborhood, and filled with everything we needed for a home away from home. The owner quickly responded to all questions. The living areas were nice and spacious. There were plenty of dishes, towels, and the pantry was stocked with things we forgot like honey. Highly recommend this home for a visit to Mt. Dora or the surrounding area.
The cottage was very cute. We felt at home right away. We had everything we needed and then some. Except for coffee, that is. đ It was a charming home with lots of character. The gardens were beautiful.
We were impressed with how well set up, attractive, and comfortable all the different areas of the house were, from the dining and living rooms to the peaceful lanai, and the bedrooms. The kitchen was well stocked. Lynne was very friendly and prompt in responding to questions. The house is in a beautiful and friendly neighborhood, and just a quick walk down to the paved pathway that borders Lake Gertrude.
The house was clean and well maintained but we were there before, during and after Hurricane Milton. The garden sustained minor damage but the house was fine; however, we lost power for 15 hours and had no TV or Internet for our last few days. The owner kept in touch with us during our stay - we certainly don't blame them for the weather or the electric and cable outages.
Location for us was key and this home was perfect! Bonus it was a beautiful, comfortable and newly renovated home. We never expected all the home had to offer: Close to everything! We traveled to many locations and when we came back it felt like home. We enjoyed the lanai which is large and faces the beautiful sunset. We were able to enjoy the quiet feel of a neighborhood and the walking trails were well travelled. It was a wonderful experience one we hope to repeat next year.
We enjoyed our stay at your lovely home. Your decorating style makes it very welcoming. Clean, comfortable and quiet. Well equipped kitchen. Liked having our morning coffee/tea on the screened patio looking out over your garden.
We took several walks around the neighborhood and Lake Gertrude, which is one short block away.
Always love my time in Mount Dora. Would definitely stay at your adorable house again.
P.S. Thank you for the bottle of wine. Very thoughtful.
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely home in picturesque Mt Dora. The close proximity to the lake provided beautiful scenery for morning and evening walks. We enjoyed afternoons browsing the unique shops of Mt Dora. The fully stocked kitchen made it easy to fix our favorite family meals and a seafood boil for Thanksgiving!! We enjoyed the lanai and backyard gardens for evening relaxation. This home exceeded all of our expectations.
We loved the Shell Cottage! We wanted to move in permanently. It is so comfortable and definitely an oasis after a busy day. The furnishings are so comfortable and one can imagine that hosts are classy people. Our sincere thanks for a wond
It was a beautiful home located in a great area & conveniently located to everything we needed. The home allowed us to have family over for dinner & be able to comfortably visit. We would definitely stay in this home again. The owners are amazing & the house is stocked with anything you could ask for in case you forgot anything. Wonderful vavcation!!
Very clean property. Had all the furnishings to make it a comfortable and pleasant stay. Beds were not as comfortable , but definitely clean and inviting. I would stay again.
Take a lakeside stroll morning and evening and see otters, bald eagles, pileated woodpeckers, a host of birds and even rabbits. A great way to start and end the day. Sit in the lanai and watch the sun set over the water. The garden is an ongoing project and we are endeavoring to xeriscape it all, so that irrigation is not necessary. We love more flowers and less lawn!! After 9 years it's still ongoing! See the book in the lounge for photos of the transformation.
