Stayed here for two days while working in town. Apartment fit my group perfectly. The location is about as good as you can get with restaurants and stores within walking distance. Place was clean and really well kept. Renters brother was doin some maintenance in the building below and was very friendly and helpful as well. Can’t think of one negative thing to say. Would 100 percent stay again.
What a fabulous place to stay while visiting mom. Quiet and serene. A great respite in the heart of SL. Great location…very accommodating and comfortable. Thank you!
This property was just as listed. I can’t rave enough about how clean and cute it was. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. It was also very conveniently located near everything. And the host was extremely quick in responding.
The property was a great location and perfect size for our group of 9. It gave us space to spread out and was walking distance to whatever we needed! Enjoyed our stay!
Your property was perfect! We stayed there with another family. Both of us have kids that go to BVU. It was a great place to relax and so close to great little businesses.
I stayed here for work. This apartment is adorable, super cozy, perfectly located and has everything one needs. Parking is simple and restaurants, coffee shops, and entertainment are all within walking distance. I highly recommend a stay here!!
My family and I stayed in Erin’s rental for a trip to Kings Pointe and Okoboji. It was perfect! The space was clean, checkin was simple, ample electrical outlets, and space to move around. The location was great, too. The local shops and restaurants within 1-5 minutes walking distance was such an added bonus.
The Lily Pad exceeded our already high expectations! The space was tastefully appointed, clean, extremely comfortable, and in a great location downtown. We loved the oversized windows that welcomed in a tremendous amount of natural light. The contemporary additions made our stay super comfortable while retaining the character of this historic building. There was ample seating throughout and multiple conversation and relaxation areas, not to mention a spacious back deck. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable. And there was plenty of storage space. The modern kitchen was great to have for preparing family meals. Erin was a perfect host, kind and easy to communicate with. We hope to enjoy more time at the Lily Pad someday!
My family of six (including 4 kids ages 9, 11, 13, and 15) loved our stay here! Each kid had their own bed, and there was plenty of living space for our family to spread out. The whole space is stylishly decorated and has lots of gorgeous natural light thanks to all of the giant windows. It is a renovated historic building, but the owners kept many of the original cabinets and built-ins along with some of those old-building quirks. We appreciated the comfy new mattresses, nice linens, plenty of fluffy towels and all of the soft blankets and throw pillows. It really was a perfect space for a lot of people to hang out!
The location is ideal, with easy parking. We took advantage of being so close to a coffee shop, donut shop, ice cream shop, and pharmacy. The host, Erin, left a great list of places to visit in town and responded quickly to our texts.
One thing to note is that the apartment is accessed via a very long, steep set of stairs. It wasn’t an issue for our family, but people with mobility restrictions should take note.
Our stay in SL was just wonderful! My grandson didn't want to leave. The apt. was so comfortable and spacious. It had everything we needed and the location was perfect.
We loved the location and everything about this 3 bedroom stay! Beautifully furnished! Great space for us to hang out together with extended family we were visiting in town. Location is great for dining out, shopping or even a movie. All just steps away in this neat downtown area. A short drive to the lake and picnic areas. Excellent hosts! Will definitely go back in the future!
This property was the perfect solution for our family of 5 to get in an extended visit with family in Alta without cramming into hotel space or guest rooms. With high-speed internet, I was able to set up space for video conference calls for work and we all had plenty of space to spread out. I've used short term rentals extensively and this was one of the cleanest, nicest, and most thoughtfully stocked and appointed properties I've ever seen - from the ktichen, to the laundry room, to the bathroom and living spaces. Grocery, pharmacy, gym and restaurants all nearby and mostly in walking distance makes this an incredibly convenient location. With this first trip done as a proof of concept, we'll plan to come back for longer 1-2 weeks stays every year!
Fantastic place! Beautiful decor, clean, and exactly as listed. Would definitely stay again if in Storm Lake. Owners easy to work with and hassle free. Check out their cute shop below as well. 5 stars for sure!

About the host
Hosted by Erin
I grew up in Storm Lake and love to call this place home. With the best bakery in the world, stunning sunsets on the lake, plenty of authentic amazing ethnic quisine, golf, mini golf, water parks, several amazing parks and walking trails, kayak rentals, lighthouses, bike rentals, shopping and more—we think you’ll love Storm Lake! My husband and I have 4 children (3 still at home) and we own the flower shop downstairs-so we are usually around should you need to reach us!
