Togetherness

We needed a place for the family to be all together for a graduation. Staying in hotels, you do not get to be together. This is a fantastic house with lots to do outside. Even though we booked last minute, the owner made sure it was ready to go for us. We will be coming back and staying again to explore the town...with just us adults and no teens. :)

Peaceful Retreat

Getting away to the Grafton Getaway was really good for our souls. The host, Brandon, communicates well and they have thought of everything you can think of to make your stay comfortable including free toothbrushes, coffee pods, and sound machines in every bedroom! The front porch with the swing and babbling brook below is a little slice of heaven even though we had quite a lot of rain during our stay. Had dinner and drinks out at Grafton Pub, 3rd Chute, and the Oyster Bar which are all within a mile of the cabin. We will most definitely be back when we want to experience Grafton and the peacefulness this property affords. I can see why guests have rated this place 5 stars. If I could give it more, I would!

Grafton Getaway Eagle Trip

My husband and I had an amazing stay in your beautiful cabin. The cabin gave you a feeling of being right at home. We went to town to the Grafton Pub for dinner, then hit the Martini Bar. Afterwards came back and enjoyed playing Foosball and listening to the great collection of music. The bed was really comfortable and thanks for the abundance of extra blankets provided. In the morning, my husband prepared a wonderful breakfast. We then headed out for some eagle watching. Thanks for sharing your beautiful property! We would definitely recommend your cabin to friends and family.

Not long enough!

We had a super quick stay and cannot wait to come back. The cabin is amazing—so much to do inside and out. It was clean and comfy, great layout. The communications for renting were super smooth. We can’t wait to come back and spend more time to fully enjoy the space—especially what the outdoor adventures hold!

First of all Brandon was amazing we had snow and he cleared the area so my guest didn't have any issues parking. The cabin was perfect for my ladies PJ party. His cabin had everything that you might had forgotten to bring for the overnight sleepover.

Amazing home

Loved the house; great vibe; very relaxing; great place to meet our out of town family to celebrate Christmas. While I absolutely loved the yard, the weather was rainy and cold so we really couldn't enjoy it. I was getting over a horrible cold so a lot of time was spent indoors, a real torture, watching movies on the comfy couch by the fireplace, or we played games - Scrabble, Jenga - while listening to Fleetwood Mac on the record player; great record selection. Was wishing the decorative guitar was playable though, lol. Ordered food in from Grafton Oyster Bar and ate in the comfortable kitchen. Doggos loved the property too and they had room to roam. The yard is crazy cool for kids. This is the coziest house we've ever stayed at. Pere Marquette State Park is a 5 minute drive away with a drivable tour (check out the "Eagle Roost Scenic Overlook", gorgeous, you drive up it). Actually, I wish I owned this home; just so incredibly beautiful tucked into the side of a giant hill. And we saw this home when trees were bare, and dealing with rainy weather. I can only imagine full bloom. Plenty of restaurants nearby. Will definitely be back. Host Brandon was super nice, easy to work with and very responsive.

Wonderful stay!!!

We loved our stay at the Getaway Cabin. The house was perfect for teens and adults. The teens loved the Scrabble table and the large Connect Four game. The yard was perfect for evening family time eating dinner and then sitting by the fire. The sleeping arrangements were comfortable. Everyone enjoyed the fun decor inside the house. Brandon was wonderful answering any questions we had for our stay. We can’t wait to return!
