Cute and clean. Small kitchen, but has everything you need. Fenced yard great for our two labs. Five minute drive to grocery store, and nearby parks and trails. We would stay again. Easy drive to Florence on the coast.

Cute place to call home.

This is an adorable and quiet place to stay. The owner was very responsive with questions and any issues we had, she even shared her fresh vegetable garden with us. We will return if we’re back in the area.

Charming dog-friendly property

We found The Lily Pad when we needed a sudden change of venue while visiting family. We have two dogs, and this property was perfect! It was clean and quiet, very comfortable, and the fenced yard was great for our dogs. We'd love to stay there again!

Disliked: Cleanliness

I wish I could say we had a “luxury” experience, but we did not. Upon arrival the grass was a couple ft. tall so using the yard was not possible. (They even received a citation on the door). The house did not appear ready for our arrival. One bathroom was not clean. There were no wash cloths in the home to bathe with, no liners in trash cans. I contacted the host & they did send wash clothes the 2nd day. The master bath was gorgeous (the best part of the home). Given these things, when our flight got delayed & I asked for a late check out, I was told it would cost me an additional 50. Really? I would not stay with this host again. Hopefully, it was an off stay.

Weekend away in Veneta, near Eugene OR

The place is great - no surprises - just as advertised. Clean, owner friendly. Veneta is about 15 min from Eugene, but has a country feel. We will probably stay there again in the future.

The Lilly Pad BnB

This house is a gem; my wife and I feel lucky to have stayed there. It is tastefully furnished at a meticulously landscaped property. There is a large covered deck overlooking a beautiful koi pond. Overall, the setting is peaceful and has a feeling of privacy. As another bonus, the owner is a wonderful person. Paul Smith

A beautiful oasis!

I cannot say enough about how special this property is. The gardens are so beautiful. We sat by the waterfall and enjoyed the koi. She has so many fun touches throughout the garden. We experienced a medical emergency while we were there. Kathy was so incredibly gracious throughout. It was like having family nearby.

We had a lovely time at the Lily Pad. The space is cozy, warm and well appointed with everything we needed. The owner Kathy was very helpful and welcoming. The yard and gardens are just lovely with lots of space and outside seating. If we have reason to be in the area we would stay again. We highly recommend.

Cute and Clean Space

My husband and I were very happy with our stay. The neighborhood was quiet, yet close to stores and a great restaurant called "Our Daily Bread". Whenever I had questions, Kathy was sure to answer them quickly. We appreciated that. We stayed two nights, and would definitely recommend staying here to anyone looking for a place off the beaten path for a quiet getaway.

Great Stay in Veneta!

We truly enjoyed our one-week stay at the Lily Pad. The place was perfect for the two of us and our Boston Terrier. It was as described, with no bad surprises. Most importantly, our host, Kathy, was fantastic, and a great communicator. She gave us great advice and even shared excellent local eggs and fruits. On top of it, her mini schnauzer, Fritzie, is absolutely adorable! We'll be back!

Beautiful Little Escape

My wife and I stayed here while visiting our son in Eugene for his 30th birthday. What a cozy, relaxing, and thoroughly enchanting little place. We absolutely loved our stay. We even brought our son and his husband back to hang out for a bit by the coy pond after meeting them for dinner in Eugene. The garden area outside is beautiful… so many trees and plants, fresh fruit and vegetables. We had a couple delicious plums that had fallen and a handful of fresh raspberries off the vine. The pond area at night is an absolute delight. We will definitely look to see if this place is available again the next time we come this way and need a place to stay.
