A Day in Mount Dora, Florida | Lake Dora | Parks
Hey everyone this is Orlando Streets and today we are driving to Mount Dora Florida which is 46 minutes drive from Downtown Orlando.
Approximately 13,000 people live in Mount Dora. Mount Dora retains the flavor of a small town with many historic buildings and large canopy trees.
The town is also known for its variety of antique specialty shops and numerous special events throughout the year.
Mount Dora's annual events draw thousands of visitors including the Mount Dora Arts Festival in February, Spring Fest in March, Sail Boat Regatta in early April, Independence Day Parade on July 4th, Bicycle festival in early October, Craft Fair in late October and the Annual Christmas festival from November thru December.
Mount Dora also overlooks Lake Dora. Lake Dora is approximately 6 miles long covering 4,500 acres of water. Lake Dora has some of the most expensive real estate in Lake County.
Mount Dora is home to many parks. My favorites are along the Lake Dora shoreline namely; Elizabeth Evans Park, Granthum Park and Palm Island Park.
My favorites are Granthum Park and Palm Island Park.
Palm Island Park has a raised boardwalk about a third of mile long. There is lots of wildlife to see along the boardwalk and plenty of places to sit down and just enjoy the view. The Spanish moss is beautiful at sunset and the area usually isn't too crowded.
The Alexander House opened in 1883 – a two-story hotel with 10 rooms. A popular winter retreat for hunters, fishermen, and boaters. The Alexander House was renamed Lakeside Inn and remains in operation today. President Coolidge, President Eisenhower, Thomas Edison, and Henry Ford have visited this iconic hotel.
I hope you enjoyed our visit to Mount Dora.

Exploring Lake Dora
You can take a boat from Central Florida to any port in the world, thanks to a series of natural lakes and man-made canals linking the heart of Florida to the ocean. We took a cruise across Lake Dora and up one of the canals to see wildlife and dense wetlands while visiting Mount Dora, FL.

UFO Mount Dora FL 02/18/2014
This is a video I shot (facing south) with a Galaxy S4 of an object hovering (probably over Lake Dora from my perspective). I was sitting on my front steps in Mount Dora Florida on Feb. 18th 2014 @ 10:22 p.m. E.S.T.. The object made no noise. It sat there for a few minutes then as I called my wife out to take a look slowly it moves off to the left of the screen (towards the end you will see it go behind a tree) still with no sound. I watched it continue southeast until it was out of sight.

Mount Dora Mountain Bike Park (Mount Dora, Florida)
In this video, I visit Mount Dora Mountain Bike Park for the first time. It is located at 1550 East 11th Ave., Mount Dora, Florida 32757. It is right in front of Mount Dora Middle School. It was a fun but tiring trail as there are a good number of hills to conquer. The FL humidity did not help at all but I will be coming back to this trail for sure! I took the GT Avalanche out on this ride!
