This place was absolutely amazing!! Gorgeous on the inside and out! Great communication with the owners as well. It was so nice to stay here and be away from the city and just take all the beautiful views in and listen to the birds chirping while drinking coffee then wine. :) The ferry’s were fun to take and it was easy to get to Grafton or even to the big city if you needed to. I highly recommend this place and I would definitely stay again.

Birthday gets away

My wife and couple came to celebrate my birthday. We were going to grafton for the winery’s and the park. Staying here was perfect for us. The drive to grafton wasn’t very far at all. I loved being out in the middle of no where and away from everything. The stay was just what we needed. The hot tub was great and the ability to use the grill was nice for a meal instead of having to eat out both nights. What you see in the pictures is what it is in person. Very clean and spacious. Susan was wonderful to work with.

Perfect Getaway!

Let me start with holy breathtaking! This is by far the best place we’ve staying! The scenery is absolutely stunning. From the early morning sunrise sent in the hot tub to chilling on the deck durning the sunset you can see a lot of beautiful wildlife frolicking around on the hills! I know the “man cave” is for men lol but we had sooo much fun playing pool and darts. This place is everything you ask for and more!! There is ALWAYS something to do! The hosts are absolutely amazing! Very clear check in and out process. They are very communicative and even left us many goodies! We couldn’t have asked for better hosts! We are definitely coming back in the future!!!

Excellent stay!!

Beautiful!! The Barn was a perfect getaway location for our long weekend. The pictures really don't do justice. We didn't come across anything that we thought could have been "needed". Love that your neighbor's dog came to visit both evenings in the hot tub. We will definitely be back for another stay. Thank you for sharing your property.
