    The Lily Pad is a classic style French Colonial home with a mansard roof. Built in 1820, our home maintains some of its original period ornamentation while offering today's modern conveniences. We are located on the Wepawaug River where you can enjoy nature from our gazebo or lawn swing. The front entrance features a rose walk and an English Garden. You can take a short walk to scenic waterfalls, visit an historic 1639 cemetery, or stroll through historic downtown Milford. Our downtown offers many exciting shops, restaurants and coffee houses, the Eastbound Theatre and frequent craft fairs on the Green. Our home offers six guest rooms, three with private baths. This is a smoke free environment and all guest rooms are scent free for guests with allergies. Rooms are decorated with a Victorian flair and hat collections enhance the decor. One bathroom has cedar lined walls, a shower stall and a claw foot bathtub . Another bath has a whirlpool tub. The third bath has an oversize shower.

    A home away from home in Milford.

    August 27, 2011

    We had lived in Milford several years ago and wanted to have dinner at a local favorite, the Seven Seas. We chose the Lily Pad becasue it was immediately adjacent to the hot Milford night life, but did'nt realize what a real gem it really is. The house is gigantic, right on the river with a beautiful relaxing back yard. We had the white room which was done in white and tastefully appointed with antiques. The shared bath was across the hall and tastefully done. All was very, very comfortable and you felt instantly at home. The best part however are Ann and Steve who are charming, delightful gracious hosts! After two minutes we had been best friends for forty years. Absolutely delightful! We are making plans to be back in Milford often just to stay with Ann and Steve.
