Perfect family spring break!
We wanted a stress free, enjoyable spring break for our family of five, and had a wonderful time at the Grafton Getaway. There were so many fun things to keep the kids entertained, both outdoors and indoors, comfortable sleeping arrangements, and Brandon was very helpful and friendly with suggestions for things to do in the area. We would love to return!

Amazing property! Amazing host!
My husband and I had 6 boys together at this property for my sons 10th birthday sleepover party. The property was amazing. There was so much for the kids to run around and do. I wish we'd actually had more time and stayed longer than one night. They had so much fun picking their location to sleep within the house, and their favorite part might have been naming all of the chickens. The host was just as great! He communicated timely and was kind and helpful! We look forward to checking out this property again as well as his other ones. I definitely recommend!!

Delightful Farm
Out in rural Jersey County, you will find this cozy, quaint and quirky farmhouse. The area is beautiful with fall trees changing colors and the brisk fall breeze. We enjoyed fishing, paddle boating and kayaking on the farm pond. The 2 ducks on the farm pond are darling! The hens were one of my favorite activities letting them out in the morning. We used to have chickens. I got into several foosball wars with my companions. We also enjoyed the numerous games and movies available within the house. This house is amazing! The amount of bedrooms in nooks and crannies is one of the coolest features! You’ll not be disappointed with this property! 5 stars! Thank you for the wonderful memories! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

College Reunion
3 young families, 7 kids under age of 4. We had a great time. Most laid back (in a good way) host I have experienced, check in/out was a breeze. It is an older farmhouse not a new build so just have appropriate expectations, photos are accurate. Very well furnished, comfortable beds. Very thoughtful with variety of kids activisties, our kids enjoyed the trucks, gravel pit, kid zone, trampoline, paddle boat, and gathering eggs. Would absolutely go back.

We had such a great family vacation! There were ages 8 months to 94 years old. Great grandparents, grandparents & all of the adult children & their children. A truly one of a time vacation and everyone had a fantastic time. Grafton Getaway was exactly as advertised! Very clean, every family had their own room & there was plenty of space for all of us to be together. Bedrooms on the main floor for elderly to stay with bathroom. We enjoyed all of the games especially in the nice cool garage! The pond was so beautiful & even though it was extremely hot, we did some ping pong in the barn. Nightly gatherings at the gazebo too! Something for everyone. Most of all priceless memories were made. Brandon was great to work with. Wish I could give more than 5 stars!!!

worked well for our family, we did have to travel several hours to see the sights but we had known that going in. Cell service is very spotty, need to put in maps before losing the service at the house

The home and property are absolutely gorgeous. We vacationed with our four sons and their families. They live in four different states and rarely get together. Their was so much to do with our grandchildren. It was both exciting and relaxing. Brandon was very helpful and he answered all our questions immediately. Can't wait to return!
