The Lily Pad – Cozy roundhouse nestled in the heart of the Catskill Mountains | Cottage in Elka Park
2 Bedroom Cottage in Elka Park
The Lily Pad – Your Summer Escape in the Catskills
Named after our mini Aussie, Lily, who loves the outdoors as much as we do.
A charming, pet- and family-friendly, cozy 2-bedroom, 1 bath roundhouse in the lush green heart of the Catskill Mountains.
This one-of-a-kind retreat is your summer basecamp for hiking adventures, swimming holes, mountain views, and starlit nights around the firepit. Also enjoy a projector, wooden fireplace, full kitchen, and modern comfort in a unique circular design.
The living area features a comfy green sofa, two chairs, a coffee table, a smart projector with Roku for streaming your favorite shows—and a charming firewood stove to keep things warm and cozy. The kitchen is fully stocked for your cooking needs, and the dining table for four looks out onto the yard through beautiful French doors. Step outside to enjoy your morning coffee at the bistro table for two on the deck, or gather around the outdoor fire pit for a perfect evening under the stars.
The bathroom offers a full tub, plush towels, and essential toiletries including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body lotion, and hand soap. An extra door leads to the utility room where you'll find a washer, dryer, mop, broom, and the electrical box in case of emergencies. Fire extinguishers are located in the kitchen (behind the garbage can) and in the utility room for your safety.
Both bedrooms have closet space. The main bedroom includes a queen bed, two nightstands with soft lighting, and a desk for remote work. The second bedroom features a full-size bed, a nightstand, and a smart TV.
Please note: the ladder and loft are not for guest use. For your safety, we kindly ask that you do not access this area.
Just a quick note for transparency:
There is a small, local propane company located two properties down the road. On weekdays/non-holidays, one of their delivery trucks may drive past the house a few times — usually no more than five times a day.
They’re a quiet and respectful local business, and the area remains peaceful and relaxing overall. Most of our guests don’t find it disruptive at all and continue to enjoy the calm and privacy of The Lily Pad!
