Mermaid House in Downtown Mt. Dora!! Pet Friendly

We had a wonderful long weekend at this cottage! Peaceful, bigger than we expected, everything we needed and both beds were very comfortable..great nights sleep! I left my pillow there and they were so nice to mail it back to me too. We will be back 😊

Absolutely perfect two bedroom home me nestled in the heart of historic Mount Dora. The house is outfitted with all you need in the kitchen, bathroom and outdoor living space. We stayed two nights and I wish we had booked for a week. Home away from home!

Our first time in mount dora was wonderful! We highly recommend The Mermaid House. It is close to downtown shopping and restaurants. The house itself is so charming with the wood floors and old time charm. Will definitely stay here again.

Great place. Everthing we needed. Perfect location close to downtown Mt Dora

House is adorable, walking distance to downtown area. Loved the backyard with fire pit. Had everything we needed.

Nice home, convenient to downtown Mt. Dora. Great for 2 friends to catch up over a couple of days. Had everything we needed for our stay.

Great location and an easy walk to downtown. Neighbors were very friendly and made us feel like part of this historic community. Home was very clean and the host provided all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay. Highly recommend.

Very responsive host. Comfortable unit roomy, and comfortable. Good location.

Steve is an absolutely wonderful host. The house is certainly cute, but it is older. My sister and I were visiting family close by so we didn’t spend much time at the Mermaid House…basically just a nice, comfortable place to sleep. Didn’t use the kitchen at all and Steve was immediately on a small issue we had with the bathroom sink. Great location in a Mt. Dora neighborhood close to downtown.

Second time at this house. Just adorable. Close to downtown and great location to walk the neighborhood. Had everything we needed for a long weekend. Really appreciated the fenced in back yard for our dog.

The host is really great! Cute cottage and yard. Fully outfitted kitchen! Really charming and pet friendly!

Everything was as expected.

Very cozy, the property is very well located, excellent experience, we will return next year

Perfect house for a girl's weekend! Very well appointed and comfortable with plenty of seating throughout. The kitchen was clean and had everything we needed for cooking in house. Great location in a quiet neighborhood only a short distance from downtown Mt Dora. Need to make a trip to this house an annual event!

This place was awesome! Very clean, well maintained and the location was fantastic. Walking into town was easy and the neighbors were friendly, even to us out of towners. Our two little dogs loved it and clean up in the yard was easy. It was great having a little fenced in back yard to let them out in. We checked the fence to make sure they couldn't get it, and no problem, even for our little dogs- no escapes! Lets put it this way, We loved it! Definitely recommend this place!

Very nice little house in Mt. Dora. It's very close to the downtown area which made travel very convenient. I would definately stay again.

Checkin was very easy. The host was great. Very responsive. The cottage is really cute. It has everything you need even though we were there such a short time that we didn’t get to take advantage.

We really enjoyed our stay at this cute cottage! Steve was a wonderful host!

Thanks for a wonderful stay in Mount Dora. Great house

over all we give it 3 stars. It was about a half mile from town. Nice to have it pet friendly. A/C worked great. Kitchen was adequate too. Nice TV. We had a hard time sleeping, the beds need a foam topper of some kind. They are hard! Bath room had a sad little shower head, minimal bath towels and wash clothes. Hardly any soap! The foam containers had watered down soap, basically no soap. One sample size tiny bar in the shower, and i mean tiny. We had to go out and buy soap. Scant little shampoo, only one! So bring your own. Sorry to not be more positive- for the price i dont think we would repeat this stay. The back patio was too dirty to use.

Had a great little stay in th mermaid cottage. Check-in easy, super cute and great location. Everything you need for a little vacation.

We had a great trip!! The Mermaid House was super cute and close to everything in Mount Dora.

The property is lovely with thoughtful features, excellent air conditioning, abundant ceiling fans, comfortable beds and furnishings, and nice coffee provisions. The decor was pleasant and inviting and it had everything we needed during our stay. Thank you for an easy visit.

Sweet little place with everything necessary that you could possibly need and super clean. We loved the little special touches thoughout. It is located nicely with walking distance to town and about a 15 minute walk. We walked back and forth a couple times a day, nice walk. We sat out on the front porch every morning and it was quiet, all you heard were the birds chirping. There is a nice area out back for lounging and in addition a firepit. Super quiet at night also. Mt. Dora is a special town with many boutiques, galleries, shops & restaurants. We also took the boat ride down the canal with Rusty Anchor, its always a must see for me in Mt. Dora and love sharing it with others. Tavares is only about 10 minutes away with a wonderful roof top lounge, bi-planes flying over the water and several waterfront restaurants. Its a great area for exploring. I am familiar with the area but my friend from North Carolina had never been and absolutely loved it! Favorite restaurants while there were Pisces Rising (great mojitos for 5 during happy hour!), Goblin Market and The Yardery. I would highly recommend The Mermaid Cottage, it won't dissapoint!

This house is absolutely adorable! We loved our time there and would absolutely book again. The owner was incredibly responsive with all questions and even mailed back a dress that was accidents left. Could not recommend this property more!

Property offered bare bones.. not even a box of tissues! Good location for downtown activities.Could use brighter lighting…dark house.

Very cute property and easy walk to downtown.

We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary with a long weekend stay at The Mermaid House in Mount Dora. The house was perfect, the neighborhood great and close to downtown. When we had a question for the host he contacted us right away. Since it was very hot we didn’t get to enjoy the backyard oasis much. We hope to return in the fall

Property was clean and conveniently located. Quiet neighborhood. Close to shops and cafes. Host was very accommodating and communication was great! We would absolutely stay again.

Really liked the property, it was very cute. Some minor issues like non-functioning TV's and would have been nice to have some ice in the freezer, but overall it was nice and clean and I would stay again!

Very enjoyable

We enjoyed staying at the mermaid house. Cozy old cottage just big enough. Updated shower, adequate kitchen, comfortable beds. Could not figure out how to use the tvs. Close enough to walk downtown thru a safe pleasant neighborhood. Looking forward to going back later in the year.

My sister, two pups, and I all stayed over the weekend in the mermaid house! It was the cutest house and the perfect location! Hosts were very responsive.

We loved this little home. It is near to everything and so comfortable. All the amenities of home. Thanks so much!

Loved the short walk to downtown Mt. Dora! House was comfortable and clean. Area has a vey safe feeling! Can’t wait to come back!!

This how was perfect for our weekend anniversary trip. It’s close enough to downtown without being in the middle of downtown. We will stay again!

Stayed for 3 nights with my husband. Close to downtown restaurants and shopping. Charming cottage with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful cottage, very well equiped. The location is great walking distance from the downtown area. Easy cominucation with host. Will return for sure.

Very nice. Stayed for Thanksgiving. Recommended!

Enjoyed spending weekend here, short walk to Downtown. Charming cottage - will definitely book again!

We were in town for a wedding with my dog and really enjoyed our stay at the Mermaid. It was clean, great neighborhood and just as described in the listing. Thank you!

Such a cute home so close to the historic area ...restaurants and within 8 minute walk to the Mount Dora Craft Show. Steve was very responsive to my questions and saw to it that all was just perfect for our stay.

Had a wonderful stay at the Mermaid house. Was very nice and cozy. AC was great, location excellent, and very quiet neighborhood. Host was very communicative and would highly recommend.

Sweet, sweet cottage. Great front porch for morning coffee and meeting neighborhood walkers. Perfect layoutfor two friends or couples. walk to downtown. Charm, charm, charm.

Accommodating

We were taking our college Sophomore to UCF and get her set up in a new apartment and decided to stay in Mt. Dora to get away for a few days afterwards. It was a perfect place to get some rest and relaxation in before going back home to South Florida.
