Mt. Dora
 

Please tell me what you love to do when you are in Mt. Dora. I've heard it is a great place but don't know anything about the restaurants or shopping there.

Nice shopping in old town section, antiques, glassware, novelties. Goblin Market great for lunch or dinner.

Take a boat ride on the lake, participate in a Segway tour of the city and eat at of of the many very good local restaurants or bakeries.

It's better if they are having an art fair

I am not a fan. I am not crazy about antiques. I am glad Sweetie is.

Went to the Blues and Wine Fest a couple of weeks ago. Great time. Local artists, wine tasting, and entertainers singing the blues. Had a great dinner out on the deck of Pisces Rising overlooking the lake and listening to a great band. Check out web site for upcoming events.

Love Mt. Dora, cute little town, but better in the early fall. If you are into plants get there for their huge Plant Sale on the lake. Goblin Market for lunch or dinner, and we like to eat in their tiny courtyard.

Mount Dora Plant & Garden Fair

We love the Bavarian House restaurant. It's located on a side street about one block in on the commercial district on the right side across from the Segway store. Great German food.

We LOVE the Segway Tours in Mt Dora. Lots of fun and interesting tour. Book online and save $. We bring our guests there for the tour every chance we get. Try it.

If you go to Mt. Dora during one of the art fairs or craft fairs, be prepared to park a mile or more from the center of town. Just saying.

Thank You Madelaine for posting the Lake County website.

Have duly noted it...and...saved to Favorites.

Check out Copacabanas, a cuban restaurant next to Goblins. Great ethnic food. Having lived in Miami for many years, I highly recommend it.

I second the Copacabanas recommendation ..... and I went to The U and worked in Tampa for many years, both have plenty of good Latino restaurants.

The Mt Dora Arts Festival is world class.

wife made me go not a fan, but she liked it
