The Cutest little place

Your property was perfect! We stayed there with another family. Both of us have kids that go to BVU. It was a great place to relax and so close to great little businesses.

Convenient and Adorable

My family and I stayed in Erin’s rental for a trip to Kings Pointe and Okoboji. It was perfect! The space was clean, checkin was simple, ample electrical outlets, and space to move around. The location was great, too. The local shops and restaurants within 1-5 minutes walking distance was such an added bonus.

A wonderful place!

The Lily Pad exceeded our already high expectations! The space was tastefully appointed, clean, extremely comfortable, and in a great location downtown. We loved the oversized windows that welcomed in a tremendous amount of natural light. The contemporary additions made our stay super comfortable while retaining the character of this historic building. There was ample seating throughout and multiple conversation and relaxation areas, not to mention a spacious back deck. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable. And there was plenty of storage space. The modern kitchen was great to have for preparing family meals. Erin was a perfect host, kind and easy to communicate with. We hope to enjoy more time at the Lily Pad someday!

Perfect for families!

My family of six (including 4 kids ages 9, 11, 13, and 15) loved our stay here! Each kid had their own bed, and there was plenty of living space for our family to spread out. The whole space is stylishly decorated and has lots of gorgeous natural light thanks to all of the giant windows. It is a renovated historic building, but the owners kept many of the original cabinets and built-ins along with some of those old-building quirks. We appreciated the comfy new mattresses, nice linens, plenty of fluffy towels and all of the soft blankets and throw pillows. It really was a perfect space for a lot of people to hang out! The location is ideal, with easy parking. We took advantage of being so close to a coffee shop, donut shop, ice cream shop, and pharmacy. The host, Erin, left a great list of places to visit in town and responded quickly to our texts. One thing to note is that the apartment is accessed via a very long, steep set of stairs. It wasn’t an issue for our family, but people with mobility restrictions should take note.

Exceptional!

We loved the location and everything about this 3 bedroom stay! Beautifully furnished! Great space for us to hang out together with extended family we were visiting in town. Location is great for dining out, shopping or even a movie. All just steps away in this neat downtown area. A short drive to the lake and picnic areas. Excellent hosts! Will definitely go back in the future!

Remote work/home away from home

This property was the perfect solution for our family of 5 to get in an extended visit with family in Alta without cramming into hotel space or guest rooms. With high-speed internet, I was able to set up space for video conference calls for work and we all had plenty of space to spread out. I've used short term rentals extensively and this was one of the cleanest, nicest, and most thoughtfully stocked and appointed properties I've ever seen - from the ktichen, to the laundry room, to the bathroom and living spaces. Grocery, pharmacy, gym and restaurants all nearby and mostly in walking distance makes this an incredibly convenient location. With this first trip done as a proof of concept, we'll plan to come back for longer 1-2 weeks stays every year!

About the host

Hosted by Erin

I grew up in Storm Lake and love to call this place home. With the best bakery in the world, stunning sunsets on the lake, plenty of authentic amazing ethnic quisine, golf, mini golf, water parks, several amazing parks and walking trails, kayak rentals, lighthouses, bike rentals, shopping and more—we think you’ll love Storm Lake! My husband and I have 4 children (3 still at home) and we own the flower shop downstairs-so we are usually around should you need to reach us!

Why they chose this property

We LOVE this downtown location! Perfect for watching the hustle bustle from above. Walking distance to absolutely everything downtown.

What makes this property unique

There is an extra large double living room with open dining room which makes this a perfect gathering space. Whether you’re in town for BVU baseball games, graduation, family reunion, wedding, or weekend with the guys/gals, this will be the perfect place to relax and be your home away from home!
