we have been staying at this BB for almost 20 years now. We usually stay 2-3 times per year when we attend festivals in the area or just to stay in the quaint little town which we love. For many years the place had the same owners and Inn Keeper and they were always great and we became very close. After the pandemic the owners sold the property and the new owners are just as wonderful if not even more. The place is always spotless and very cozy. We usually stay in the same room but we have stayed in some of the other ones as well and they are all as lovely. We cannot wait to go back in a couple of months.

Nice stay
Cozy inn - very walkable as it’s right downtown. We were comfortable. The space was quiet. Breakfast from the cafe a few doors down was tasty. Hosts were welcoming and friendly. I’d gladly stay here again.

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.

Great Experience
Such an amazing experience staying at this Bed and Breakfast! The staff were so friendly, the house was all decorated for Halloween (loved it!), and it’s not even a block away from the downtown area. Also, where they send you for breakfast at Cody’s was delicious! I will definitely be staying here again.

Lovely inn and bedroom. Less than 5 minutes walk to the centre. Breakfast is in a local restaurant which is a shame as we were looking forward to eating in the inn.

I took my husband for a surprise birthday trip to Mt. Dora. When Innkeeper Rachel found out it was for his birthday, she made it extra special! We had a fabulous time with the restaurants, shopping and special events. We will definitely be going back to Mt. Dora Historic Inn!

Mount Dora Charm
We stayed at a small historic inn in Mount Dora. Our room was very comfortable on the first floor. Coded entry made it easy to enter and exit. They had snack, coffee and water available at no charge. We received two breakfast vouchers for a nearby restaurant (just a block away. We are located in the downtown area and can walk everywhere. Excellent place to stay.

The property and staff were first rate. A few suggestions for inprovement: 1-- safety bars in shower, 2--We never had breakfast at Cody's. It was crowded and appeared to be not well managed.. Dirty tables and short staffed.

Wonderful location. Great food options. Only issue was the steps at the Inn, and that was because of our age and nothing with the facility.
