About Custom-order Lilypods

More Than Just a Floating Structure

Turn Your Waterfront Into Something Extraordinary.

Imagine owning your own Lilypod; a custom floating cottage designed specifically for your waterfront property. Whether you're looking to create a unique rental business, a private family retreat, a kid friendly version with a slide and other fun features, themed like a pirate ship or castle, or an innovative vacation property, we bring years of marine construction expertise and sustainable design to make your vision float.

Our custom Lilypods are engineered for Canadian waters, built to withstand our climate, and designed to provide years of enjoyment with minimal environmental impact.


Proven Experience

Our first season sold out before opening, attracted guests from every province in Canada, and generated enough demand for five additional pods.

Built to Last

Built with marine-grade materials and designed for Canadian waters, our floating cottages are made for long-term durability, safety, and low maintenance.

Off-Grid Comfort

Enjoy modern comforts while minimizing environmental impact. Solar power, composting systems, and sustainable materials mean you can offer modern comfort.
