Background
A brief history
Country Club of Mount Dora was established in 1991 and developed through 2005, creating one of Lake County's most iconic active lifestyle communities. The 18-hole golf course was designed by the renowned firm Clifton, Ezell & Clifton and opened alongside the first residential phase in 1991. Over 15 years, the developer built out approximately 830 single-family homes in multiple sections, each with thoughtful site planning that maximized lake views and golf course proximity. The community was carefully master-planned to balance density with open space, creating scenic corridors with ponds, walking paths, and clubhouse amenities.
The Country Club of Mount Dora evolved to attract active retirees and golf enthusiasts from across the country, many relocating from colder climates to Central Florida's year-round appeal. The completion of the final residential phase in 2005 solidified the community as a fully realized, amenity-rich destination. Today, it stands as a well-established and meticulously maintained oasis in the heart of Lake County—a living testament to thoughtful community design and the enduring appeal of golf course living.
The feel
What it's like to live here
Country Club of Mount Dora exudes an upscale, resort-style atmosphere. Residents and visitors are greeted by manicured fairways, scenic lake views, and a central clubhouse alive with activity—dining, golf, tennis, and social events. The community feels exclusive without being unwelcoming; it's the kind of place where neighbors gather for Wednesday night socials, tournament play, and shared leisure. Tree-lined streets connect clusters of homes ranging from compact villas to sprawling lakefront estates, each neighborhood section offering its own character and price point.
The lifestyle here is unhurried and social. Unlike typical Florida subdivisions, the Country Club offers genuine recreation and belonging—not just a zip code. Year-round sunshine pairs with a private 18-hole course, driving range, restaurant, lounge, tennis and pickleball courts, and a sparkling pool. A full-time activities director orchestrates dinners, clubs, and special events. For golf enthusiasts, semi-retired professionals, and active adults seeking community alongside privacy, Country Club of Mount Dora delivers both.
The details
What to expect
Architecture & Homes
Country Club of Mount Dora features diverse home styles suited to different budgets and lifestyles. You'll find everything from compact, low-maintenance villas with one bedroom and one bath to sprawling lakefront estates with four to five bedrooms and multiple bathrooms. Most homes include attached garages, and many offer golf cart parking—a nod to the community's golf-centric culture. Architecture reflects a mix of Florida vernacular and traditional styles; many homes feature open floor plans, screened lanais, and lake or golf course views. Homes built during the 1991–2005 development phases reflect mid-1990s to early-2000s standards, which means solid construction, mature landscaping, and aging but functional systems—inspection is recommended for older properties.
Amenities & Lifestyle
The Country Club of Mount Dora is defined by its amenities. Centerpiece is the private 18-hole golf course with a driving range, designed by Clifton, Ezell & Clifton. The clubhouse houses a restaurant open to members and guests, a lounge, and a pro shop. Residents enjoy tennis and pickleball courts, a swimming pool, scenic walking paths lined with ponds and benches, playgrounds, and manicured common areas. A full-time activities director organizes social clubs, special interest groups, dinners, tournaments, and Wednesday night socials. Golf club membership is optional but highly popular; green fees and membership terms vary. This is a community built for active engagement, not passive living.
Schools
Country Club of Mount Dora is served by Lake County Schools. Triangle Elementary (Pre-K–5th grade) is 3.5 miles away, Mount Dora Middle School (6th–8th grade) is 1 mile away, and Mount Dora High School (9th–12th grade) is 1.5 miles away. Most residents are retired or semi-retired, so school proximity is less of a deciding factor than it might be in family-oriented neighborhoods. Proximity to quality schools remains a selling point for multi-generational homes or younger buyers considering country club living as a long-term base.
Location & Access
Country Club of Mount Dora is located in the charming historic town of Mount Dora, Lake County, approximately 35–40 minutes northwest of downtown Orlando. The community sits near US 441 and State Road 19, offering convenient access to shopping, dining, and healthcare in downtown Mount Dora and nearby Eustis. Orlando's theme parks, airport, and employment centers are within an hour's drive, making it attractive to semi-retired professionals and snowbirds. The town of Mount Dora itself is known for its antique shops, restaurants, lakefront parks, and small-town charm—a welcome contrast to busier Orlando suburbs. Winter temperatures rarely drop below freezing; summers are warm and humid with afternoon thunderstorms. This is quintessential Old Florida living, preserved and cherished.

Market Commentary
What the market is doing
I've watched Country Club of Mount Dora appreciate steadily over the past decade. Median sale prices hover around $420,000 as of mid-2026, with homes ranging from the $200s for cozy villas to over $1 million for premium lakefront and golf course estates. What I find remarkable is the stability and consistency of this market—these homes sell regularly, and demand remains strong from out-of-state buyers relocating for retirement. Villas and two-bedroom homes move quickly at the lower end. Three- to four-bedroom homes near the golf course and lakes command premium prices. If you're selling a waterfront property on Lake Loch Levin, you're looking at significant appreciation. I recommend pricing competitively based on recent comparable sales in your specific section and always accounting for HOA fees, which vary widely from $35 to $620 monthly depending on your neighborhood.
