About this property
Grafton Getaway-Cabin on 2 wooded acres just 1/2 mile from Main Street
Grafton Getaway - Cabin is a 2019 renovated home originally built in 1900. The long driveway crosses a spring-fed creek and winds up the hill to this secluded home which is surrounded by trees. Guests often hear the creek's flowing water from the front porch swing. This 1500 square foot home includes a full kitchen with complimentary coffee/tea/hot chocolate. The patio has a gas fire pit and the backyard has a Tiki smokeless fire pit with free firewood. Two hammocks and eight bicycles of all sizes are available for guest use. Watch for butterflies and hummingbirds which are drawn to the property by its many Mimosa Trees. 55 inch Smart TV and DVD player for rainy days. Make yourself at home! Or have a look at our waterfront sister property...Grafton Getaway - Riverhouse or our 23 acre Grafton Getaway - Farm with private fishing and wooded walking trail. Our newest locations are Grafton Getaway - Lodge and Grafton Getaway - Cottage. All five properties utilize staggered pricing so smaller bookings pay less than larger bookings.
As a hotel guest you would call the front desk when you need something, so if during your stay with us you ever feel your satisfaction is not at a 5-star level please let us know right away, while you are still with us, so we can remedy the situation and make your stay all you hoped it would be.

About the host
Hosted by Brandon Jeffers

I love to travel and am proud to have set foot on all seven continents. Throughout my wanderlust (27 countries and counting) I've met some wonderful people, had some memorable adventures, and I feel that hosting others in my Travel-themed guesthouse is a new and interesting way to "Ramble On".
Why they chose this property
Grafton has always been a favorite place of mine and as a General Contractor for a living when I discovered the vacant, run down property with no updates, a hole in the roof, a sinking front porch, etc. I decided to buy it and create a rustic, secluded getaway for my family, friends, and guests. I am a proud member of the Grafton Chamber of Commerce.
What makes this property unique
During my first visit to the property I heard the sound of the creek flowing from the front porch swing and it put me in a happy place, and I hope it does for you also.
