If you are a regular at B&B's. add this to your list. Great location, solidly built with great architectural features (soaring stone fireplace) , interesting house with a history (built in early 1900's), and night sounds off the lake which could put you in the Amazon with a little imagination. If you don't stay at B&B's as a rule (that's... More

I'm not usually a B & B type person as my decor preference leans more toward modern and minimal and I like to have privacy. However, for this weekend getaway, we wanted something in a small town and reasonably priced. The Lake House was perfect. The location was quiet and the innkeepers could not have been more friendly or hospitable.... More

The property is extremely beautiful, the trees, and the Lake and the green are all extremely beautiful. The house itself has a great decor and the rooms are warm and cozy. Dave, who took care of us was gracious and had some interesting life stories.

Kick back and enjoy the view. We visited in December and the gardens were not in bloom, but you can see how beautiful they will be during the spring and summer. Our room was very comfortable and waking up to the sounds of the birds and the water in the cove was great. The food was perfect and the company... More

In the middle of a grassy green wide area full of lakes and ponds you find Inverness, a little nice town in the Central area of Florida, not far from Tampa. Lake House is a beautiful house in a great place: the park gives way to the lake, where you have a nice little wharf; all around is peacefull. Inside... More

The Lake House is a lovely, victorian B&B overlooking Lake Apopka. Its a romantic setting for special events. We hosted our son's wedding rehearsal dinner in their banquet room. The food & service were very good. Our family stayed in the beautifully decorated, comfortable guest rooms. We were served full breakfasts each morning.

My first B&B experience - overall - a nice place to stay. Great ownership - great decor - wonderful place to simply hang out and enjoy life. Very peaceful, relaxing and an excellent change of pace. Breakfast and coffee were always top-notch!

Cathy, Dave, Sophie and Bear - Thank you, you all contributed to the fond memories of my solo trip through Florida. I was very lucky to have picked the Lakehouse for my short but very pleasant stay in the Inverness area and your beautiful and very welcoming home. If I was to come back to Florida and Inverness there would... More

I live here in this great, warm and sunny state. I live on the west coast, near some of the best beaches in Florida. And I have found this wonderful little jewel right here in center Florida. I have been under stress for the past few years with health issues, it literally raining in my living room, and of course... More
