Qui vous reçoit ?
Vous êtes reçu par Sandra Lyons

Hi, I’m Sandy, your host. I’ve called Swan Lake home for over 50 years, and it still takes my breath away. We built The Lily Pad just three years ago for my daughter and co-host, Becky, with the vision of sharing this peaceful lakeside setting with guests while she’s away for work. Every room in this thoughtfully designed cottage offers beautiful lake and garden views to make the most of this stunning location.
Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?
Each day, as I gaze out at the lake and witness its ever-changing moods—sometimes still as glass, other times stirred with dark, rolling waves—I’m reminded of how truly blessed we are to witness God’s creation right in our backyard. The gentle sounds of birds and woodland creatures create a peaceful rhythm that quiets the noise of everyday life. We love watching the occasional boat drift by, its passengers soaking in the joy of skiing or sightseeing on our quiet, private lake. It truly feels like a little piece of heaven on earth.
Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?
Our nearly new cottage was thoughtfully built with quality and wellness in mind—it's completely chemical-free and mold-free, so you can breathe easy and relax fully. You'll love unwinding on one of the two screened porches, surrounded by the peaceful sounds of nature—birds calling overhead and small woodland creatures chattering nearby.
Each bedroom is a private suite, complete with its own bathroom and either a spacious walk-in closet or an armoire, offering comfort and privacy for all guests. The hot tub is the perfect place to soak away stress and settle into vacation mode.
Just a short stroll down a shaded path leads you to the sparkling waters of the lake—ideal for kayaking, swimming, or simply enjoying the view. One visit to The Lily Pad Cottage is rarely enough—our guests often find themselves coming back again and again.
