We're hooked!!
Liz and Lee, Your cottage is AMAZING … but, more than that, so is your hospitality. From the personal, handwritten welcome note and fresh eggs to the fun supplies (touchless trash can and polka-dot dishes!) to the signature sea-life decor, you ensure your guests with countless smiles. A close look at the home accessories gives a true appreciation of the artists’ skills. All that, PLUS front and back SCREENED porches!! This is probably the most charming, organized, well-stocked, clean, and interesting vacation rentals we’ve experienced. The historic Fisherman’s Cottage sits on a quiet street, within an easy walk to town. It was truly a haven after a busy day of doing the “tourist thing.” Future renters, be warned: You might not want to leave! -Tim and Anne K

New Years in Mt. Dora
We have Forever Friends that had never been to Mt. Dora, We try to celebrate each New Years Eve together… This year we rented The Fisherman’s Cottage and the four of us all fell in Love the minute we opened the door… From the Marine Art throughout the cottage, to the kindness of our hosts, the City of Mt. Dora then add in the fantastic fireworks… We had the perfect New Years Getaway!!! Thank you Lisa and Lee for letting us share our holiday with you at your very special Fisherman’s Cottage…
