Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Lake Dora

We loved our stay. The house was clean and comfortable, and located in a super convenient location. We'll definitely come back the next time we come to Orlando!

We had a wonderful time at the Mermaid Cottage. Steve, Amy and their son were wonderful hosts. Steve was so easy to communicate with and immediately solved any issues that we had. We were very happy with the inside of the lovely cottage and totally enjoyed the front porch and beautiful backyard. We enjoyed walking in the neighborhood especially to downtown Mt. Dora. The neighbors were extremely friendly and we got to know many of them. We highly recommend the Mermaid Cottage. Thank you Steve&Amy for a lovely vacation. Karen&Doug

Good stay! Close to everything in the area and so cute!!

Really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful and very clean. Everything that you needed was provided. Loved the little extras. Really made us feel right at home

We where in Orlando to go to my granddaughters graduation & this home just made it a perfect vacation - so comfortable - & clean & the pool & outside area was amazing !!

Had a wonderful time!! Pool was great and house was very comfortable! We always feel right at home this is our second stay!! 😁

This was the perfect place to stay. This home is beautifully decorated, and such a nice little quiet retreat. I felt like I was staying in a home that was showcased in a magazine. The beds are so comfy and the pool is serene. I had the most relaxing weekend ever, thank you Nicole!

We had a wonderful stay and would definitely book again. Tina was a wonderful host. Thank you so much for a memorable place to stay and the wonderful recommendations. We had a great time.

We had an incredible stay at Gateway Galloway Ranch! Our whole friend group loved it—especially hanging out in the pool and playing games on the Switch. The space was comfortable, fun, and had everything we needed. Best of all, it was super close to our friend’s wedding venue, which made everything so convenient. Highly recommend!

The home is beautiful and has everything you need. The pool is amazing. Check in and out was easy and Dena gave me great advice for where to play pickleball. The neighbors were super friendly too!

Loved the place very comfortable and clean. My grandson loved forest and puddles. All my grand children and adult children loved spending our evening in the pool. Will definitely do it again. Michael was great very informative and we loved his decor. Thanks Michael you’re the best!

I can’t say enough about this place or the host!! It was way more than I ever expected. We were able to check in sooner than the original check in time. Dave was awesome with communication and periodically checked in to make sure everything was going good throughout our stay. Everything was well stocked in the house from the kitchen (including spices and other little stuff that you would normally have to run out and buy to make a meal) to the bathrooms. There is everything you would need for the pool also. Dave even thought about your furry friends by providing leashes/bowls and treats. The house was immaculate! All you needed to do was literally pack your bags. Thanks for a great stay. We hope to return to the villages in the winter time!

We loved our stay at Nicoleta's! Everything was very clean and exactly as described. The view was beautiful and truly the cherry on top of a perfect stay! We will definitely stay again next time we are in the area!

We had a wonderful time at André place! The apartment was clean, cozy, and in a fantastic location. The host was also incredibly communicative and made sure we had everything we needed. Just a heads-up: the bedroom doesn’t have A/C, but the fan provided kept things comfortable for us. Overall, it was a great experience, and we would definitely stay here again!

I almost hate to wrote this because this is a hidden gem in The Villages. When people find out about this house it will always be booked. Pictures don’t do it justice. So cozy. Fantastic pool. Great TV’s. Everything so easy to use. Matt the host was incredibly attentive and truly cared that we had a good stay.

Great place to stay. The amenities are nice and everything was smooth and easy. Thanks Andrea!

The Clara Cottage is a spacious, clean and well decorated property. It is a 20 minute walk to downtown Mt Dora and all Mt Dora has to offer. We have stayed in Mt Dora many times, for the local stores, cuisine and the beautiful water ways. Talia and Gabi were both very responsive & helpful with any queries we had. We were not disappointed with this cottage or its location and I would recommend it to future guests. Thank you for a great stay. Louise & Ian. UK.

Beautiful little home with a little antique charm located just outside of the city. The home is fully stocked with everything you may need if you want to stay and cook, extra pillows, linens, ect. Worth noting ...there is an adorable private patio off the back I must have missed in the pictures, a delightful surprise. Parking was easy. Only down fall is, there is only one bathroom sadly and the TV in the master has no signal/cable, so no tv in bed. I called and left a message re: on the number provided on the check-in, with no response. This wasn't a big deal since we were hardly there.

Our stay was short and sweet. The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Check in was easy, home fully stocked, and host was responsive and easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely great place, experience and communication. We had a great time. It was easy, clean, and peaceful. If I go back to that area I would definitely love to stay longer. Thank you Sarah, you were incredible.

We had an amazing stay at Linda’s. Her correspondence was quick, and she was very pleasant and accommodating. The guest house was nothing short of beautiful. Very tastefully decorated, clean, and well equipped. The bed is soooo comfortable! Highly recommend! Will definitely stay again if we get back to Mount Dora.

This house was beautiful and well taken care of. You can tell the owner loves the home and wants to make sure it is taken care of even when she’s not there. Lots of rules when staying here but we didn’t mind because it meant the same standards were being met by all guests. Loved watching the sunrise on the lake every morning! Couldn’t have asked for more!

Brianna’s place was exactly what I needed—a peaceful, clean, and cozy spot with thoughtful touches that made the stay feel special. The home was spotless and well-organized, with everything clearly labeled and easy to find. The bed was super comfortable, and I appreciated the extra blankets available. The kitchen was fully stocked with quality cookware and essentials, which made it easy to prepare meals. Brianna was a wonderful host—responsive, respectful of privacy, and incredibly accommodating. Her communication was clear and timely throughout the stay. She even provided a local guide with personal recommendations, which helped me discover a few hidden gems in the area. The neighborhood felt safe and was conveniently located near shops, dining, and nature spots. I’d absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, well-cared-for space hosted by someone who genuinely puts effort into making guests feel at home.

We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb. The house was beautiful, waking up to the stunning lakeview in morning was truly a highlight. The amenities were exceptional, especially the kayaking. The sandy areas were perfect for relaxation, and the kids took full advantage of it! Made memories around the bonfire in the evening, roasting marshmallows and making s’mores. The host was welcoming and provided everything we needed for a fantastic vacation. Truly a peaceful gateway!
