Another perfect stay

This was our 5th year staying at Lilly’s Pad for our annual weekend away and we wouldn’t stay anywhere else. Such a beautiful location and the house itself is very well equipped and easily copes with a large crowd.

Good for a large family

Well set out for a large amount of people. Plenty of hang out spaces and bathrooms but also a large dining area for everyone to eat together. Good communication by the host. It could benefit from a deep clean though

A great property in an excellent location, very peaceful. Our family of 10 had a great time especially the grandkids they loved the pool the beach out the front and trying to catch some fish. Would highly recommend anyone wanting a great location for a small or large family

We had a great long weekend at Lily’s Pad. The layout and configuration worked well for our large group. The location is perfect - absolute waterfront - and our kids spent the whole time outside. Jay was great to deal with, very responsive and accommodating.
