The Dragonfly now has a brand new dock with built-in lounge seating right over the water. The kind of spot where morning coffee turns into two hours of doing absolutely nothing. And honestly? That’s the point.

Calm mornings. Sunset views. Clear water. A front-row seat to lake life.

We can already picture guests ending their nights out here listening to the water and watching the sky change colors. 🌅

Northern Michigan summer can’t come soon enough. 🩵
