Quick trip to Grafton

We took a quick small family trip to the Grafton area. The house is perfectly situated just outside of town. There is a very small commute time to get into town. But it is far enough away that you do not hear the hustle and bustle that is going on there. It is the perfect setting to enjoy a nice walk or sit by the fire pit.

Holiday stay

We enjoyed our stay at this country home. It was prepared(very clean) and provided very well. We enjoyed our Thanksgiving while meeting with our son who lives nearby. Nice country setting and close to Grafton and Pere Marquette Park. Just 1 recommendation: If you have a pet staying with you, make arrangements ahead of your stay for the pet fee payment because it is not included in your rental payment. We were notified by the host via email on our final day that the pet fee to be left in cash. Good thing I checked my email before we left the property & lucky I had cash. This could have been easily overlooked. Other than that, the hosts are very pleasant and accommodating.
