I give this property a ten out of ten. My husband and I needed a place to stay one night for a wedding in Franklinton. This tiny home was perfect. The hostess was very responsive and accommodating to our schedule needs. We found the home to be clean, cool temp, great location to the wedding venue and a beautiful quiet little spot. The beds were comfortable and this home had everything you need. Love the decor. I would definitely recommend and would book again.

Beautiful property, a quiet place to relax. The only thing I would recommend would be a brief instruction on how to adjust the mini split settings but that could just be my inexperience. Loved our stay. Would definitely recommend.

We had a great stay. I think the pics of the property need to be updated to be a little more accurate. The grass was pretty high. But we were next to a beautiful horse and the cuteness and great a/c made up for anything else. We would go again!

Hi Terri! Thanks for your feedback. We have had some weather that has messed with our mowing schedule. Sorry about the tall grass. We always try to strive for improvement and will access what we can do moving forward. We hope to host you all again! - Casey and Zack

A great little spot!

It is exactly as described. What a great escape- so sweet! If you choose to go, definitely do check out the driving directions for landmarks as google maps is iffy on the location.

The best thing I can say is that if you are looking for a place to completely decompress yourself from the stress of the hustle and bustle this is the place for you. Stars at night when it’s a clear sky and the sounds of nature instead of horns and sirens made this little getaway the most attractive of all.

Very accommodating host, adorable tiny home.

We were in town for a funeral and stayed at this tiny home as an experiment. It was a good experience with the host and the home. I highly recommend if you find yourself near Franklinton. There were farm fresh eggs in the kitchen and everything you could want for an evening stay. It can be hit or miss on short term house rentals, this was a home run.

Picture perfect

My husband and I had a quick overnight in the area and the Lilypad was just what we needed to help us relax and unwind! The place is tucked away from city noises, but only a ten minute drive from the town! The property was beautiful and exactly what you see in the pictures! We could not have asked for a better little get away! Can't wait to book again!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the little hidden jewel! It was our first time in a tiny house and wasn’t bad at all. Suggest this if your not a “camper/tent” person like myself. We came to town for a BroncoJeep event and really enjoyed our time here.

Cute, simple, and a perfect getaway

My girlfriend and I stayed here for a little weekend getaway from the city. The communication with the host was superb, they were extremely accommodating, and the property was absolutely beautiful. There is a little trail into the woods from the tiny home that is very fun to explore. Loved the fire chiminea for when the weather got cooler at night! Easily one of my best VRBO experiences.
