Great spot!

This was perfect for our short stay. Clean, with everything we needed. Close enough to town to walk to the many things to do, but far enough to not hear them - very peaceful.

Nice place

The condo is nice. Although don’t walk up to Aeries from there. The owner of Aeries asked us where we were staying and told us we needed to turn around and walk back down when we got to the top.

Grafton Weekend Get Away

The property/room was very clean and much better than staying in a Hotel. The bathroom towels plush and the Kitchenette very well stocked. We had to touch bases with the owner and they were very responsive. We hope to stay again in the fall.

Weekend getaway

Overall stay was great. Using the touch key entry was a bit confusing and there were a couple of glitches when opening the door. We had to read through an email to trouble shoot. It got easier as we used it. We would definitely stay at this property again. Great weekend!

Grafton Escapes

Everything was nice about this stay with one exception. You hear everything from the people above you. Not even excessive noise, but rolling luggage, walking and anything above 2 people having a quiet conversation. First night was really rough, but luckily the group above us didn’t stay up late the second night.

Excellent Condo

Everything was as described. Condo was clean and as advertised. If I would suggest anything it would be stock a few more wash cloths to match the amount of towels as we had to use a few dish clothes out of the kitchen. Not a big deal at all. Also the slatted shade at the patio door does not offer complete privacy if the air is on and the slats are blowing, with it being on the first floor and pool traffic right out the back door I might suggest retractable floor length drapes. Again not a big deal, Everything was wonderful! Thank you!
