Serving modern Florida cuisine this is the finest dining experience available in Mount Dora. The restaurant has been nominated for the James Beard Foundation’s “Best Restaurant in America". The food is excellent and innovative but the dinner menu is pricey, for a more affordable option try doing lunch instead.

This store boasts the most delicious selection of olive oils and aged balsamic vinegars. You are invited to grab small cups and pieces of bread to sample the wares. I have yet to bring anyone to the store who hasn't left with a bottle of specialty balsamic vinegar. It's just to good to leave empty handed!

This restaurant has a lovely patio with one of the best views of the lake in town. Great for grabbing cocktails or a drink in the evening. I would not recommend eating here however, the prices are expensive and the food is not usually good.

This is a wonderful Pinterest worthy bar. Grab a cocktail (the French 75 is a favorite) and head downstairs to the Market Place to shop or to enjoy some wonderful cheese or chocolate fondue at "Cheese to Share".

The Mount Dora Lighthouse is one of only three freshwater lighthouses in Florida. The lighthouse is within walking distance of the Carriage House and makes a good early morning stroll or sunset viewing location. At sunset the entirety of the lake reflects the pink sky and makes for a beautiful photo opportunity.
