Located about 30 miles northwest of Orlando, Mount Dora is a relatively small city in the eastern part of Lake County in Central Florida. The area around the city was first settled in 1874, following the arrival of David Simpson and his family. About half a decade later, Ross Tremain became the community's first postmaster. He was also one of the major real estate developers in the settlement. He named the unincorporated community “Royellou,” after his three children Roy, Ella, and Louis.

Later on, the village was renamed Dora Ann Drawdy, after an early settler. The adjacent Lake Dora was named after her in 1846, and the settlement was renamed after the lake in 1883. Since it's located on a plateau, the community was named “Mount Dora.” Mount Dora soon became a popular winter retreat for anglers, hunters, and boating enthusiasts. A railroad was built in the town in 1887, followed by fertilizer factories, a cannery, and an orange packing house. In the early 20th century, the town experienced significant population and commercial growth and began investing in public infrastructure.

Today, Mount Dora has a population of about 14,200 and a land area of 9.2 square miles. It continues to be a popular tourist destination because of its small town feel, historic charm, and abundance of outdoor opportunities. It also hosts many annual festivals, earning it the nickname “Festival City.”

"Had a Blast!!!"
Score 5.0 / 5

The city was so awesome, the shops were great. Live music every night, someone was able to make an outstanding cappuccino at an odd time of day, the shops were open and it was clean and just a delight. A place was open late to get souvenirs and the movie theater Epic 12 had all the great films ready at all hours. Just spectacular, boat tours were great. I was really impressed. I had a blast.
