I have to agree with MSNPA about The Lakes of Mount Dora. We found it to be quite away off what I think is Rt 441. We found the homes looked to be well built and very nice looking. At the time we were there, we didn't see anybody around. The main building was impressive, but that was it. I like some privacy, but not to the extent of not seeing anybody. I don't want to knock it because it does look like a very nice community, but it isn't anything like TV.
