Lily Pad Lodge .

Wake up to lake serenity at this custom vacation home with back yard access to Lake Cascade. Tucked along Dawn Drive, this newly built 3‑bedroom home places you in a pristine location with no neighbors behind you but the lake and wildlife—there’s direct access to public lands where deer and osprey make regular appearances.



Inside, the open‑concept layout feels like a modern lodge. High‑end finishes and large windows capture the view while a cozy wood‑burning stove and sleek kitchen with quartz counters invite you to unwind. Step through the sliding doors to a fully outfitted patio: a solo stove for fireside conversations, a Green Egg barbecue, ample patio seating and a brand‑new hot tub for soaking under the stars. Stone steps lead down to a path leading right to the shore, making it easy to launch kayaks or simply dip your toes in the water. An attached heated garage, with space for up to four vehicles, make it easy to keep things warm in the winter.



Within 15 minutes you’re at Tamarack Resort, where winter brings pristine ski slopes and cross‑country trails and summer offers mountain biking, zip‑lining and hiking. Around Lake Cascade, you can fish, boat, paddleboard or simply enjoy 86 miles of shoreline.



The nearby town of Donnelly — perched at an elevation of 4,865 ft — offers charming restaurants, a grocery and other amenities. Festivals such as the Huckleberry Festival and nearby Gold Fork Hot Springs add local flavor and relaxation.



Whether you’re seeking a family getaway or a base for year‑round adventure, this waterfront retreat blends modern comfort with the wild beauty of Idaho’s Long Valley. Bring your boat, your skis and your sense of wonder — paradise awaits.
