Packing for a vacation should feel exciting—not overwhelming. But we know how it goes: halfway through the drive you realize you forgot dish soap, or your toddler’s sippy cup, or the extra shampoo you swore you packed. That’s why, at the Lilac Lakehouse, we’ve tried to think of everything for you—so you can settle in and start relaxing the moment you walk through the door.
From kitchen basics and bath essentials to cozy extras and kid-friendly gear, we’ve carefully stocked the home with items that make life easier, meals smoother, and downtime more peaceful. Whether you’re here with your partner, a big family crew, or just a few close friends, you’ll find everything you need already waiting for you—thoughtfully chosen, neatly stored, and ready to use.
Here’s a full list of what you’ll have ready and waiting for you the moment you arrive:
We believe great meals bring people together—so we’ve stocked the kitchen with both the big tools and the little things that make a difference.
Basic cooking staples:
✔️ Olive oil
✔️ Vinegar
✔️ Salt & pepper
Wraps & storage:
✔️ Cling wrap
✔️ Aluminum foil
Filtered drinking water:
✔️ One full jug of water provided (additional available for purchase or refill)
You’ll also find all the cookware, utensils, glassware, serving dishes, and small appliances you need to cook comfortably—whether it’s a simple breakfast or a full dinner spread.
Located off the mudroom, the laundry space is stocked with everything you need to do a quick load (or clean up after a day at the beach).
Detergent (septic safe)
Fabric softener
Dryer sheets
Basic cleaning supplies (sprays, wipes, dish soap, etc.)
Whether you’re freshening up swimsuits or cleaning up after kids, it’s all ready to go.
Because we love a thoughtful touch, every stay includes a curated welcome basket with a few local or seasonal goodies. Think: snacks, a handwritten card, and sometimes a surprise treat depending on what’s fresh and available in the County.
It’s our way of saying, we’re so glad you’re here.
Families are warmly welcomed here—and we’ve made sure the youngest guests have what they need too:
High chair
Portable crib with a full set of crib sheets
Changing area setup
Kid-friendly dishes, cutlery & cups
So you can travel lighter and feel right at home.
Each bedroom is set up for total rest, with extras included just in case:
Shampoo, conditioner & body wash (stocked in every ensuite)
Extra blankets & pillows (in closets or drawers)
Soft towels for indoor use
Lake towels available in the lower lounge bathroom—perfect for a swim, paddle, or dockside sun soak
We also provide septic-safe products throughout the house, so everything’s easy on the environment and the plumbing.
If you’ve forgotten something or need an extra item (more bath products, extra water jugs, etc.), check our in-house shop—or message us directly and we’ll do our best to help.
We built the Lilac Lakehouse to be a place where people can rest, gather, and feel completely at ease. These amenities are just one small part of that. Whether you’re cooking up a storm, cuddling up with your kids, or just enjoying a quiet morning coffee—we’ve tried to think of everything, so you don’t have to.
