The host was present upon our arrival and we chatted a bit and was super pleasant. He informed us of some of the activities in the area. The beautiful downtown area is walkable from the Lily pad. The rooms were all clean and very comfortable.

Great stay! We came up as a group of 5 for angirls weekend. The location was perfect, with shops, restaurants, and the lake all within walking distance. The home was clean, cute, and full of character. We especially enjoyed the outdoor fireplace after a long day of exploring. They also have bikes available for guests, which was a nice bonus. We were excited to use them, but ended up being so busy exploring the area that we never got the chance. Would definitely recommend this property

My four girlfriends and I stayed here for two nights during a girls’ getaway to Niagara-on-the-Lake, and we had a wonderful experience. The location was absolutely perfect, with a walking distance to the main strip. The property was very clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. It had plenty of space for our group, and we felt comfortable from the moment we arrived.We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Niagara-on-the-Lake. Thank you for a great stay!

We enjoyed our stay at The Lily Pad. We found it was cute and very convenient for our needs while we were in NOTL. Corey did communicate well to us. What we found - is that the lighting was somewhat dull - perhaps better bulbs for the kitchen? When we first enter the property it is a bit musty - but it could be the dryer was still going in the basement .It was clean and cozy.Thank you

This was our second year at The Lilly Pad. We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived with the improvements the owners had made during the last year which included central air, replacing the deck and remodeling the bathroom. The property is perfect for my wife and I. We can walk to downtown, the Shaw Festival and the lake. We enjoy eating our breakfast in the backyard and sipping some wine in the afternoon on the front deck people watching. The house was sparkling clean with a very comfortable bed. We have already made reservations to return next year.
