About this property

The Lily Pad - quaint home in Old Town NOTL, steps from the lake!

  • Hop over to The Lily Pad for a perfect weekend getaway in Niagara-on-the-Lake - the location is one of THE BEST! This is a picture perfect place to relax. Our home is situated on a quiet street, lined with beautiful historic homes. The Queen's Royal Park (the infamous gazebo) right on Lake Ontario is less than a block away and the bustling Queen Street is also one block away. A short walk or bike ride takes you to your choice of local wineries, breweries, restaurants, shops, and other sites and attractions. Please ask us for additional information or recommendations!

    Built in 1930, the home has been in the family for over 60 years (4 generations). With a fire place in the spacious living room, it is a charming and cozy home for couples, families and friends. All beds are fitted with luxurious linens and bedding, and towels are supplied to listed guests. Our bathroom was newly renovated in 2026, new windows installed in 2025, and exterior redone in 2025 as well. The AC and furnace are also brand new as of 2026 as well.

    Cozy up with a complimentary cup of coffee or glass of wine on the back patio overlooking the luscious garden or on the front deck overlooking the lake before heading out on a bike (also complimentary!) to tour the town. Additionally, a new propane fire table is available for guests use on the back patio with comfortable cushioned seating.

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!

The ultimate central location for a visit to Niagara-on-the-Lake - just a couple minutes’ walk one way to the heart of shopping and restaurants, and to the lake in the other direction. The cottage is cozy, and love the long history of it.

Lovely little house in a perfect location!!

We loved our stay here at the Lily Pad! Was a great location, walking distance to the main strip and to the lake front. Stunning community and houses to view when you go for a stroll in the morning before all the crowds. Would stay here again next time we plan to visit NOTL.

A charming old cottage conveniently located near shops and theatres, steps from Lake Ontario. Very clean, with lovely outdoor spaces in the back yard and front deck for relaxing under the trees. The bathroom is newly renovated and the towels are plush. Sadly, the beds appear to be at least as old as the house? The mattresses and pillows were lumpy and uncomfortable, and we did not get a good night’s sleep. Beds and bedding sorely need an upgrade. Otherwise would recommend this property.

Fantastic location!

Fantastic location in what seems to be a well-loved family home. Quirky touches, like frog images around the kitchen, make the Lily Pad memorable. The hosts had some great hospitable touches, like coupons to a winery that we really enjoyed visiting!

Cozy 1930s cottage with great location

Easy walking distance from Queen St dining and shopping, or to park on the Niagara river. Far enough from Queen St to not be bothered by crowds. Host was kind to leave a yoga mat for my wife to use while we were there.

This house was perfect for our girls trip to NOTL. There was plenty of parking for our three cars where we parked and were able to walk everywhere to the water, get food, drinks, and go shopping! We will definitely consider returning for our next trip back here.

50th Birthday Celebration

Such a nice place to stay so close to the heart of NOTL. A group of close friends were able to enjoy time together hanging out in the house in the afternoon and then exploring the town at night. Loves the golf course restaurant on Front street. Complimentary wine and coffee was an added bonus. Doesn't get much better!

Wedding weekend

My siblings and our partners had a lovely time staying in this home, its quite small (we were 7 adults) but it is very cute and very functional. We were very comfortable, and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay as well as to prepare for the wedding we were attending during our stay we were even able to walk to both the church and the wedding venue, and enjoy the sights of NOTL due to the very good location the super-long driveway was also very convenient as we had arrived in several cars overall we had a really lovely seamless stay, and would recommend this cottage to anyone who wants to see NOTL for a more affordable price than many of the other local rentals and hotels
