The Lily Pad, headwaters of Eden Falls

Enjoy this cozy cabin nestled in the heart of the Ozarks on a 100-acre farm and 3 acre fishing pond. Lily Pad is centrally located for all your upper Buffalo River activities. All the perks of a national park can be sought along with the joys of living on a farm. Watch granny milk each morning and enjoy the butter, eggs, and meat grown right here. This cabin comes with a yard of your own, a fire pit (firewood 5$ an armload), an ice maker, a smart tv with free Wi-Fi, a charcoal grill, and modern plumbing to make this little cabin your home away from home. Directions- Take Firetower road off of highway 43. Go exactly 3.5 miles and turn left on Crossroads road. Pass Crossroads church and stay straight, (do not take Stoverville to the left directly after the church, it takes you to Ponca the back way, down the mountain). Bring your fishing pole for the pond and do not forget to ask about farm raised products including beef, butter, eggs, and more! We do have Pyrenees dogs who watch over the farm, they are harmless and part of the landscape.

Once we got ahold of the property owner, which was difficult, they came down to apologize and gave us some of the rich history about the property. Adorable cabin, quiet & relaxing!!! Communication aside, I’d go back & recommend!

A nice place to just relax and enjoy nature. Great view of the Lilly pond from the front porch, very secluded place. Will be a great base for experiencing the Buffalo River, hiking,kayaking and canoeing.The owner is very kind and accommodating a great source for finding places of interest in the area. I would definitely go back to this cabin again.

Quaint and cozy with everything you need at this little cabin. Host was so kind and helpful. Bed and bedding very comfortable. Nicer than the pictures. There is a bed where the sofa is pictured in the listing so you don’t have to sleep in the loft. Good proximity to popular hiking areas. Definitely recommend this property. You’ll especially appreciate the quiet, rural setting if needing a getaway from the city!

Beautiful location
Traveling down the long drive to the cabin you'll see cows, hillsides, a small church and cemetery, and probably two Great Pyrenees. The pond is right out the front door. The cabin is cozy, but everything you need is outside- a firepit, a grill and a clean picnic table. There's good wi-fi and hot water for a great shower (although the shower itself is very small). The host is very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this cabin for a remote getaway.

Beautiful and tranquil
Our stay was so pleasant and the property was beautiful! We enjoyed all the amenities of the Lily Pad such as the lake and the mountaintop view, and there was a lot to do nearby. BOC has a great website with lots of info. It was very helpful to have a stovetop and oven, as many cabins do not! There was no cell service, but the Wi-Fi worked well for everyday use. Connie was very nice to offer us farm-fresh eggs and beef from the livestock. The dogs on the property, Pearl and Leo, were so sweet with guests and visited us every morning. Overall, we had a great time and would love to come back and stay here again!

Peaceful and relaxing
We enjoyed our Christmas stay at the Lily Pad. The pond was frozen over and there was still snow on the ground when we arrived and it made for pretty view. The dogs were super friendly. It was just a short drive down the mountain to Boxley Valley to see the elk. The cabin was cozy and warm even with the crazy below average temperatures. I would highly recommend the Lily Pad.

The Lily Pad was an excellent escape from the daily grind. It was clean and homey. The farm dogs come and visit every morning to say hi. We really enjoyed waking up, drink coffee on the porch and then fishing in the farm pond right outside the front porch. We both caught bass and sun perch. The owners are kind and have assorted farm fresh produce to purchase and eat at the main house. This cabin is close to Lost Valley, Steel Creek and Kyle’s Landing. Which makes is great if you are going to float the famous Buffalo River. We will definitely be going back to the Lily Pad for another escape!

10 year anniversary trip
This is a great place for a little get away. Very peaceful and quiet. You still have access to internet though if you want it. Cabin was stocked with all the essentials that you need. Lots of great hiking and waterfalls close by to go to. Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate but we were still able to get a couple of hikes in and a little fishing, just not as much as we would have liked, maybe next time. We still had a great time though.
