Mt. Dora weekend

This was our first trip to Mt. Dora and just happened to come across the Mt. Dora Historic Inn through a Google search. The location was perfect, downtown and no need to drive anywhere. The Inn was clean and cozy, only 4 individual suites, and the staff were great. I would recommend the Mt. Dora Historic Inn.

Lovely bed and breakfast in the heart of Mount Dora....guests are given a breakfast voucher for Cody's on 4th, which serves really yummy food. The innkeepers were very warm and welcoming. Hope to be back next year and enjoy the Xmas lights once more.
