About this property
Private Cottage | Cozy |Newly Remodeled | Walk to Dining | 1 Mile to Silver Dollar City
Welcome to The Lily Pad—one of our favorite little escapes at Cardinal Hill.
A newly remodeled cottage designed for rest and renewal. Inspired by water, tranquility, and simple comfort. It’s the kind of place where you can slow down, take a breath, and just enjoy being together. Tucked in the trees but right in the middle of everything Branson has to offer, it’s the best of both worlds!
Relax and unwind on the patio, which offers a serene view of beautiful trees in the wooded retreat.
Perfect to take in the fresh air and start your morning with coffee on the patio while the trees wake up around you. Head out for a day at Silver Dollar City or the lake. Then come back, kick your feet up, and wind down under the stars. That’s really what The Lily Pad is all about.
