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.

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.

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.

2 bedrooms? Not.

The cabin was nice and well maintained. But I searching for place that had bedrooms and that was how this place was listed. And while a king bedroom is nice, the bed was the only thing in the room except for the tv. The bunk bed was stuck in the corner of the living.

Great Cabin in a great area

My husband and I rented the cabin for 3 nights. Our main purpose for the Branson trip was to rest and relax, but we did go to Silver Dollar City one day which was less than 5 minutes away from the cabin. We really enjoyed Ozark Mountain Pizza that is next door to the cabin and would highly recommend. We didn't really care for Billy Gail's that was across the street. The cabin was very clean. One of the cleanest rentals I've ever been in, including hotel rooms. The weather was perfect, we never even ran the ac. The pool was closed during our stay, but the hot tub was up and running and we utilized it every day. So nice to relax in the hot tub and it's right across from the cabin. Even though Cardinal Hill Cottages is right next to the highway, it was overall very quiet and peaceful. Brad, the host, was very quick to respond to messages.

Overnight Branson Trip

We spent one night in the cabin. It was as advertised and a great stop for us. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook dinner. The master bedroom has little space to walk because the bed takes up the entire room. This wasnt a problem for us but it is worth noting that there is only a small path on all three sides of the bed. The bed is SUPER comfortable!!
