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 Lily Pad is steps away from shops, restaurants, waterfront, and theatre. The house is comfortable and has everything you could need for your visit. Unfortunately, the timing of our visit didn't allow us a chance to enjoy the garden area. The hosts responded quickly to any questions. A great spot!

Location was PERFECT! Two blocks from the center of town, two blocks from the lake, close to the park. About 15 minute drive to the Falls. So many wineries and orchards within a quick drive. Check in was super easy, clean instructions for check in/check out. Loved that there are bikes available for use. Sleeping arrangements are tight and bathroom is super tiny, but very nicely updated. Having a coffee maker with coffee pods was a bonus. Would come back here again if we’re ever back in the area!
