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.
Beautiful house with everything you need. Our only complaint was the sulfur smell.
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
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.
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.
Enjoyed the location and large house, there was plenty of room for everyone.
We loved our stay at the Dragonfly Inn. The house is huge, the deep porch is fabulous, the small boats got heavy use, and there is so much to do in the area.
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.
Great property for a large group.
Truly a wonderful place to stay. We have a group of 20 and we have lots of room to spread out.
Great place for family reunion/gathering. Lots of room and well supplied.
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.
Our family had an incredible time at the Dragonfly for our post wedding weekend. The host was so accommodating and kind and communicative. The property is huge, perfect for a large group with plenty of dishes, supplies, games, and fun! The boats were an awesome added touch! Thank you so much Gary! We will always remember the Dragonfly as an essential part of our weekend and hope to return one day!
The Dragon Fly Inn is a beautiful, peaceful property. The home is well equipped. There was plenty of space for our family of 17 to gather for meals and games. The 2 and one major problem: one of the reasons for choosing for choosing a lake front property is getting out on and into the lake. Except for a couple of brave souls who took out their paddle board and kayak, nobody swam. The 2 nd, this is not a property for people with mobility issues. Thank goodness local activities were plentiful. Corning Glass, Watkins Glen, the Watkins Glen to Montour Falls bike path, Rescue farm animals tour were very well received. Shopping in Pen Yan and Hammondsport was enjoyed by some. Brewery tours won out over winery tours.
Can’t get enough of this place! We Are returning for a 6th time.
We had a very good week at the Dragon Fly Inn. Only one thing could have made it better, if there were stairs heading to the water so our elderly adults could make it to the water. Still a very good week.
The entire experience was wonderful. The property is perfect for a large family vacation. From beginning the reservation process to check out the process was flawless. We hope to come back. Arthur
