The Lily Pad is a luxurious, pet friendly, waterfront cabin, that was completed in 2023 and is dedicated to family fun and relaxation! The cabin offers a private gated entry and winds through the large Cypress trees down to the Big Cypress River and is just a short drive from historical Jefferson. Conveniently located 1 mile from Caddo State Park, only 0.5 mile from the public boat ramp on HWY 43. This spot is perfect for a girls' weekend or a group fishermen to spend time relaxing on the porch overlooking the river, floating the river or by the fire pit on those chilly nights. Walk in the front door to find a space truly created with you in mind. The view from the deck is definitely a favorite spot! The cabin comfortably sleeps 8 guests. There is parking for 4 vehicles max and a separate area for boat parking, including two covered areas.

The Lily Pad is setup to host a variety of groups, including girls' trips, fisherman, couples wanting a romantic getaway, and families who are looking for some fun.

    We loved our stay in this beautiful, modern, clean cabin with wonderful outdoor spaces, right on the Big Cypress River. The beds were super comfy and there was plenty of sofa space for our group of 7. Location was ideal too--a quick and easy 10 min drive to Caddo Lake State Park, and Marshall was a quick 30 minute trip for groceries and Starbucks. Highly recommend and hope to visit again in the future!

    Excellent house on the river, extremely clean and every convenience that you would need. The family had a great time and we also caught some fish. Would highly recommend staying at this location. Communication was excellent.

    My wife and I have been renting VRBO house’s for over 20 years and we were so impressed with our stay. The house was stocked with everything you could ever need and there was instructions on how to use everything. Our host was the sweetest person, anything we asked she got back to us almost instantly. We rate this a 10 out of 5, we think it was the best VRBO experience we’ve ever had and highly recommend staying here. Thanks for everything, we will be back.

    This is a perfect place to get away and enjoy the peace and serenity on the water. This house is immaculately clean and they did not skimp on any detail. The beds are so comfortable that we actually stripped the one in the master bedroom to see what brand it was. We enjoyed waking up with a cup of coffee on the porch that over looks the water and fishing of the dock. We’ve talked about how great our trip was and how amazing the house was all week and will be back very soon!
