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.

This cabin is a pocket-sized fairytale. Every corner has a little charm tucked into it, like the place is quietly proud of itself — and it should be. We drank coffee on the porch, laughed by the fire, and let the world spin without us for a bit. If you’re looking for cozy magic, this is it.

Very enjoyable!

We had so much fun staying here! It was only about 10-15 minutes from the main Branson attractions which made it far enough away to enjoy some peace, but also convenient to get to where we wanted to be.

Great location

The beds were comfy and the location to everything is ideal. With a toddler we had to watch to make sure she didn’t climb the ladder of the bunk bed, but overall it was a great choice. The host responded quickly when I had a question.

Anniversary trip

The stay was pretty great and everything we expected. The cabin was very small (plenty of bed space) just not a lot of room, so luckily it was just my husband and I. Location was very close to everything.

Great Cabin.

Loved the cabin especially the bunk beds. It brought back some childhood nostalgia. Location was great. Right by Silver Dollar City. Quiet. Would stay here again maybe even try to rent the whole property with the cabins next time.

This was our first stay here. We are from NW Iowa celebrating our 23rd wedding anniversary. Came to Branson for a long weekend. This little cabin was absolutely perfecr for us. Met all of our needs. Waa sweet and cozy and location was perfect. Check in was easy. House was clean and ready for us. Communication with host was great. We ate at Billy Gails and Ozark mountain pizza and both were wonderful. Only thing i would say that was needed would be a box of kleenex and more washclothes. Had plenty of towels but only 2 wash clothes. Definitely not a deal breaker. We would like to bring our kids back nexr summer and stay here. They would love to enjoy the pool area. We did enjoy the hot tub. Thank u for a wonderful weekend.
