A Must Stay for Central FL
Lakeside Inn location is just the best for historic downtown Mount Dora visit. Yes its an old inn, but the charm can't be beat. We will say, thankfully, the king room we stayed in had a much more comfortable bed than the numerous others we have experienced, so that was a plus for these old bones. The dock has been rebuilt! Yeah! And we noticed the pool side bar was back in action, though our short stay this time did not allow us to try it out. Grounds continue to be beautifully maintained and the large porch provided a wonderful view.

Lakeside inn is wonderful right downtown, walkable to it all. Very historic and scenic on Lake Dora. I'm as bougie as the next girl, but knowing youre staying here, the rooms are small and electrical outlets are limited, bathroom is tiny and limited space for putting things, walls are thin. With all that you have to remember this isnt a chain hilton and the character of the inn is what makes it beautiful. No coffee makers in the room and mini fridges upon request, but the main house has coffee and its actually pretty good. All in all a wonderful stay!

Nice grounds. Poor rooms.
The grounds of this property are beautiful. It's a historic hotel with beautiful oak trees, the pool facing the lake. We stayed in the Sunset cottage, pet friendly the stairs and hallways were really dirty and smelly. The carpets were black going up the stairs. There is also an additional pet fee of 75.00 unless it's a service animal. The rooms were clean but the bathroom sink was so small it looked more like a school water fountain. No mini fridge to keèp cold water or leftover food. Small tv in the room and bed was very hard.Very good location to stay in downtown Mt.Dora in walking distance to restaurants and shops.
