O Jenny

MEET YOUR HOST Hello! I'm Jenny, and although I now live in Southern New England with my husband and our two teenage boys, Maine will always have a special place in my heart. I grew up in Maine, spending summers at my grandparents' camp on Sebago Lake and enjoying countless days swimming, boating, and exploring the beautiful Lakes Region. Those childhood memories are some of my happiest, and I wanted my own children to experience that same magic. In 2014, we found our little piece of paradise on Thomas Pond and purchased what would become Camp Dragonfly. Since then, we've spent countless summers making memories here, gradually renovating and thoughtfully improving the property along the way. Our boys have grown up loving this place just as much as I do! One of my greatest joys is sharing Camp Dragonfly with other families and groups of friends. I genuinely love hosting and am constantly thinking of ways to make our guests' experiences even more special. Whether it's adding a new amenity, creating a welcoming space, or simply making sure every detail is just right, my goal is to help you create wonderful memories that last a lifetime. I always welcome suggestions and love hearing what guests enjoy most about their stay. WHY CAMP DRAGONFLY? If you visit in May or June, you might look up to see dozens of dragonflies dancing overhead. I've always loved these beautiful creatures, which symbolize hope, change, and love. For our family, they also serve as gentle reminders of loved ones who are no longer with us. And, of course, there's the added bonus that they eat mosquitoes! WHAT MAKES THIS PLACE SO SPECIAL Camp Dragonfly sits on the shores of peaceful Thomas Pond, a beautiful lake that offers much of what I love most about Maine: sparkling water, abundant wildlife, fresh air, and the opportunity to truly slow down. We were especially drawn to the property's rare combination of a spacious lawn, privacy on both sides, and gorgeous, unobstructed lake views. Thomas Pond is quieter than many of the larger lakes in the region, yet still offers plenty of opportunities for swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and boating. Some of my favorite moments here are the simplest ones: hearing the haunting calls of the loons across the water, watching the moon rise over the lake, gathering around the firepit for s'mores on a crisp evening, and looking up at a sky filled with stars. Our home dates back to the early 1800s, and while we've made extensive updates to provide modern comforts, we've tried to preserve the charm and character that make it special. I hope Camp Dragonfly becomes a place where you can disconnect from the everyday, reconnect with the people you love, and experience a little of the Maine magic that has meant so much to our family. We look forward to welcoming you! Jenny
