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 profane fire table is available for guests use on the back patio with comfortable cushioned seating.

We had such a nice stay in this charming town. The Lily Pad was a perfect vantage point from which to explore. We were especially appreciative of the access to the owner’s bicycles while enjoying our stay—what a great way to see the town.

Ideal Location

This little cottage had everything we needed for a wonderful three-night stay in Niagara on-the-Lake. The location is short walk to the lake-front park, gift and clothing shops, bakeries, restaurants, pubs, and grocery store, that despite one of us being severely disabled, managed to walk (cane assisted) the short distance on the sidewalks, such that our car did not leave the driveway until it was time to head home. The area is rich in history and every walk revealed immaculately maintained homes and gardens. Most of the homeowners obviously take great pride in their historic homes, and the stately lakeside mansions of yesteryear.

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.

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.

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.

House is small, with two bedrooms, all on a single level. Location is ideal. The one bathroom is in the kitchen and is very tight, but it works.

Cute little house close to downtown

We really enjoyed staying at the Lily Pad. It is a lovely little house in a great location - close to downtown and the lake. Corey and Alicia were very friendly and accommodating, and provided very clear instructions for the house. I would recommend staying at the Lily Pad to anyone.
