Old School Florida Perfection

I loved every moment of my visit to the Lakeside Inn. I was immediately and warmly greeted at the check-in counter, which was so nice. Later, the server at Tremains Tavern was very hospitable and made great recommendations (the tomato pie was amazing!). Housekeeping staff was efficient & always greeted me as I came & went from my cottage. My room was very clean, nicely furnished, and comfortable. I am already looking forward to my next trip!

Stay away from Riverside inn !!!

Very disappointed with the quality of service and top of that found roaches in the room. Not a quality place ! Once told to the receptionist about the pest in the room her answer was “ you are in Florida”. And we told her we live in Florida and we don’t have roaches crawling in our property Never again to this place

Beautiful Views, Great Location

The Lakeside Inn is a lovely old inn with beautiful lake views and a great place to stay because you can park and then walk around Mt. Dora to restaurants, shops, and entertainment. Because it's "old" it does need some renovation but the grounds are beautiful.

6/10 Good

Outstanding location and a lovely property. However, the furnishings in the rooms (and the lobby for that matter) are severely outdated. Hallways also had a musty odor. No coffemaker or refrigerator in the room.
