Great location, just okay rooms
You are definitely paying for the amazing location and the historical charm. It is within walking distance of downtown Mount Dora and on the lake which is great. The rooms definitely show wear, the bathrooms require multiple flushes. Some of the quirks are charming such as using an actual key to get in the doors and the old time bathrooms. But mostly just seems like benign neglect to the room. Especially for the price you are paying. Would be more comfortable and have more amenities and cheaper at a Fairfield inn, would just not be as conveniently located.

Wonderful location
Beautiful property, very historic and beautiful from the outside. I think the inside needs work to be more comfortable and still keep its charm. Room was musty, air was loud, absolutely no counter space in the bathroom and the bedding needed upgrading. It’s the second time we have stayed…can’t beat the location and views!

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.

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.
