Lake Dora/Canal House Exceptional views! Close to downtown Tavares & Mount Dora!

Wake up to beautiful sunrises, have coffee on the screened in porch as you watch the boats go in and out of the world famous Dora Canal. Walk down to the dock to go fishing, drive to the local restaurants and watch the sea planes take off. (This is the Top Floor. There is a bottom floor available called Harbor House Ground Floor).

Great Lake Home

Beautiful sunrises, lots of boats to watch coming in and out of canal. Seaplanes and so much wildlife. Lots to do in this town and if time allows, make it up to Mt Dora for shopping and a great farmers market on Sunday! Beautiful clean home perfect for two.

Very Nice

We are a retired couple spending a week in the Lake Dora area. Our in laws live on a Lake Dora canal. Our son, daughter in law and their two children were staying with them doing 4 days of Disney/Universal day trips. We stayed here on Lake Dora. It was great. Nice clean, convenient location. Mt Dora is a very interesting town. Tavares is also very nice. The sunsets at this cottage were incredible! We enjoyed this VRBO very much.

Quiet Waterfront Getaway With Beautiful Views

We started our day with a stunning sunrise. The house was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. We had a fire and enjoyed watching the seaplanes. We were concerned about hearing people below us, but we never heard them. I highly recommend this property.
