Beautiful home in perfect location on Main Street Grafton. House was very clean and spacious. Decks for visiting in the evenings, overlooking the river. Big front porch for relaxing. Close to paved bike trail, sky-ride, zip line, eats. Plenty of room for 7 adults and a one year old. Erin was very responsive to questions. Will definitely go back!

This house was perfect for our girls trip! There were 11 of us ranging in age from 35-70. We slept comfortably and absolutely loved the coffee bar! There was seating for everyone for breakfast and we also enjoyed the seating on the decks. The house is decorated beautifully. Even though it’s an older home it’s super comfortable and charming. We will be back!
