Nice, large home
We loved our family weekend here, host was great to work with. Large home with huge side & front porch, many bedrooms, large kitchen and dining areas. Only negative was sulfur/well smell when running water, even when flushing toilet, it was too strong for us so we shut bathroom doors and used all our own water.

Cousin weekend
Our first cousin weekend was a great success. The dragonfly inn made it as easy as can be for us all to have a lot of fun with everything we need on hand. Great location on the lake. For our next stay we would like to be there for a few more days when it’s a little warmer out. Beautiful place. Host was grea. very responsive and accommodating

Great Week
When we got to the cottage, we notice that the owner redid the kitchen and bathroom. Everything was clean when we got there. Only thing that might be better is steps to the water. Great Week. Will do again.

Charming home, beautiful location
My very large family, spanning several generations, had a wonderful time at this location. There was something to do for everyone - a spacious dock, a huge backyard, and plenty of indoor space as well. We especially enjoyed the large, wrap-around porch that gave us lots of room where we could relax and hide from a couple of quick rain showers. The owner was very responsive and accommodating. We look forward to returning in the future!

Great stay for our family reunion!
Our 3 generation family of 20+ has been gathering to celebrate New Years for over 40 years, and the Dragonfly Inn was wonderful. The review from Melissa T. (Nov 2021) was spot on, and every point she made was perfectly said. I recommend reading her great review. We had water delivered from Avoca Spring Water (highly recommend as well) and bought an inexpensive manual pump from lowes (Vitapur-Manual-Water-Pump/1003174804) . The combination was perfect for our cooking and drinking needs.

Great Family Getaway Spot!
We stayed here for a week long family getaway; there was more than enough room for all of us (from the grandparents down to the toddler) and we all easily found something to do. Some memorable highlights included sitting out on the wraparound porch morning, noon, and night, kayaking on the lake, catching fish, taking the rowboat out for a couple of spins, and even swimming off the dock. Even with the seaweed mats down, there was a TON of seaweed around the dock and we spent some time clearing it away before we got in the water. The yard is a definite slope down to the water, but we knew that going in. If you plan on sitting outside at night, be liberal with the bug spray! Bedrooms were good sizes with plenty of room. We all assumed we’d be fine to drink the water as we all grew up with well water but trust me when I say that you want to bring your own water - the well does smell extremely sulfuric and, even though the water is fine to drink, it stinks. We really enjoyed our stay here although we did think it a little rude that the cleaning lady showed up an hour early and started cleaning while we were still loading up our cars. That felt a bit unnecessary. But, overall, a great location and a nice spot to spend the week.

Thanksgiving gratitude!
We are so excited to find a property that is able to house our large family for a Thanksgiving celebration. We had a wonderful time! The home is comfortable and provided various spaces for us to gather. Gary responded very quickly to each of our questions and provided a very helpful floor plan. The bedrooms are larger than they appeared on the floor plan. Two of the common space sleeping areas provided more privacy than we had anticipated. The property has a beautiful view of the lake and a wonderful fire pit that we were able to enjoy despite being there in November! While the house is located close to the road, many cars can be parked in the space provided. There were plenty of plates, bowls, glasses, mugs and silverware for all of our needs. The long dining room and extra folding tables provided seating for all of us! We were forewarned that the water has an odor. It does and we chose not to use it for drinking or cooking. The owners would like bottled water to be used in the coffee pots. Be certain to bring the drinking water that you will need for the duration of your stay.

Sibling Vacation at Dragonfly Inn
We are four siblings who have taken a week vacation together with our families at large houses, preferably near water for about 30 years. This year was Dragonfly. The house was great, with enough beds that those who could make it, could have stayed the whole week of they wanted. There were also plenty of bathrooms (4) though one on the second floor apparently was supposed to serve11 people. The outdoor porch space was wonderful and well used, and the two indoor living rooms were also wonderful and well used. The six year old loved the games out on one side of the porch, challenging everyone else. The general area around the house also supplied lots of activities for us to enjoy. e.g. among other activities, we did the gorge walk in Watkins Glen; some of us went to the Corning Museum, some of us went to Seneca Falls to visit the women's rights museum. We all enjoyed many ice cream shops in surrounding towns. We even found some mini-golf. Our only disappointment was Lake Waneta. There was a dock that some people used for sunning, but really the lake was not swimmable. taking a kayak out to middle of the lake to jump out and swim, then climb back in was not a realistic option for us. Even getting into the kayaks in the weedy water near the dock was difficult, but doable and many of us did go out for kayak rides. We went to Keuka State Park to swim. Also bought LOTS of drinking water, as tap water had sulfur odor. Overall we had a wonderful week.

Excellent location, home and stay
This property is everything it has been represented and more. We were a family group of 27 and everyone had a comfortable bed to sleep in. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed. We brought paper plates for ease of use but ended up using everything that was already there. The grounds are beautiful. We enjoyed a week of fabulous sunsets and set up a badminton net on the lawn. The water implements were good as well. We used the kayaks and other available boats. I loved the bed covers and the decorations. I bought a water cooler and had water delivered. 10 5 gallon jugs sufficed. Thank you for a wonderful family vacation. There were plenty of activities locally to satisfy old and young.

Annual Family & Friends Lakehouse Vacation
The house is wonderful for a large group. Kitchen fully equipped to serve a crowd and we were all able to sit together for meals. Beautiful wrap around porch and lots of yard space. The only downside is the lake - unfortunately no one was able to swim du to the condition of the lake (hab). It seems that this is an ongoing issue with the lake.

The house was spacious and comfortable. Everyone loved the lake access, the large backyard and the huge porch. The owner was great and respinded immediately to iur questions.

Family Getaway
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Three siblings with our children and grandchildren for a total of 18 plus a one year old and a one month old. Everyone was able to spread out and have their own space if they chose. Also, plenty of areas to gather as a group…eat, chat, fish, and play games. Quite a few stairs and steep walk to the water could be difficult for some. We brought water bottles and jugs of water due to the well water. The sulfur smell did not bother us at all…it was very faint at times. Golf, ice cream, and pickleball were close by! We also went into Hammondsport, Watkins Glen, and Penn Yan.

Great Home for Large Groups
This was a great place for our crowd of 24 people. No one felt squeezed in. Kitchen had everything you need. The dining area was very roomy, enough for a few groups to spread out on the tables to play various board games. The property is lovely and we really enjoyed our time on the porch and dock. Only two cons: There was no electrical in the bathroom overlooking the lake; and the yard leading down to the dock was steep, making it difficult for a couple of older family members to negotiate. To be fair, we knew this going in, but maybe a set of steps would be nice. We would definitely stay here again!

The property held 12 adults with no effort. Everything is well equipped to handle that number of people from the dining table to the number of beds. As stated in other reviews, the water does have a terrible sulphur smell. The lake was full of weeds.
