The Lily Pad: Newly Renovated, Eco-Friendly Lakefront Retreat on Shawano Lake

Experience lakeside living in a completely renovated, eco-conscious retreat, where modern comfort meets historic charm. Welcome to The Lily Pad, a serene escape nestled along Cattau Beach Road—the first home ever built on this scenic stretch of Shawano Lake. Thoughtfully updated with sleek new appliances, stylish finishes, and contemporary conveniences, this lakeside haven seamlessly blends practicality with the natural beauty of its surroundings.

Boasting 200 feet of lakefront, The Lily Pad offers a rare blend of swimmable sandy beach and protected wildlife habitat, where lilypads sway and turtles, birds, and frogs thrive. A 80-foot private dock extends into the lake’s famous fishing hotspot, making this an angler’s dream. Take in the breathtaking scenery from every room, or explore the lake on the included kayak, row boat and paddleboard.

Inside, this 800-square-foot home is designed for both relaxation and adventure. Tall ceilings enhance the open, airy atmosphere, while cozy reading nooks and puzzle corners invite guests to unplug and soak in the surroundings.
