If you enjoy romantic walks, hunting for antiques and are occasionally up for a good dose of festival madness, you might find the perfect fit in Mount Dora, the charming Lake County community located 25 miles north west of Orlando.
Less than an hour's drive from downtown Orlando, Mount Dora is nestled on the east shore of Lake Dora, a vital leg of the Eustis Chain of Lakes.
Known to many Central Floridians for as a respite from the everyday, Mount Dora annually hosts two top-rated art and craft festivals, spring and fall bicycle meets, antique boat and auto shows, sailing regatta, festival of music & literature, and a romantic annual Christmas walk.
For those who want to get to know the town better, there are a handful of bed and breakfasts in the downtown business district, including the historic Lakeside Inn, just south of the shopping district.
Throughout the year, the community enjoys plays at the Ice House Theatre, gallery openings, art exhibits at the Mount Dora Center for the Arts and a number of small concerts and recitals. Residents and visitors alike enjoy the downtown's gift shops, fashion boutiques, cafés and art galleries.
Additional business and shopping opportunities are offered along nearby U.S. Highway 441. The community offers new homes, as well as an eclectic mix of Victorian and Old Florida architecture. Antique dealers own many of the downtown stores and nearby Renninger's Antique Market attracts many to its weekend sales and fairs. Mt. Dora is located in beautiful Lake county.
