Fantastic Spot - Convenient, Clean and Well-Appointed
We rented this property for a "girl cousins" trip this weekend - a chance for the six of us to get together, play games, chat and visit the bars and restaurants in Grafton. The place was very clean and well-appointed, from the bathrooms stocked with extra towels, make-up wipes, Kleenexes, ponytail holders, extra toothbrushes and toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner and body wash (among other things!), to the kitchen which was well-stocked with everything one might need to cook a meal, to the extra bedding/covers, etc., the hosts thought of everything to maximize convenience and make the place feel like home. This VRBO is easy to find, in a convenient location to walk to bars and restaurants, quiet (other than the band playing Saturday at Hawg Pit, which was nice to be able to enjoy during the day), and has a nice view of the river. The host was communicative and responsive. Beds were comfy. Internet was fine for us all to be on our phones as needed, although Verizon cell service was patchy (as it can be throughout Grafton). I would definitely recommend this home to anyone for a nice getaway or staycation from St. Louis, and if we do this again I would not hesitate to stay again. Thanks for hosting us!

Very nice and clean, has everything you may need. The system had a glitch with sending check in email, but we were offered a free night stay from the host and were still able to get in quickly. We would go back if we go to Grafton again!

Girls weekend
There is a whole lot good to say about this property. The inside of the home looks like it has just been remodeled. All the rooms are decorated very nicely. The host has gone out of her way to make sure you have the little extra supplies you might’ve forgotten to pack. You can tell the host put in alot of thought into setting up the rental. The home is close to many bars and restaurants which is so convenient. She even went out of her way to let us check in early. There are some negatives that could be easily rectified. There are three very nice smart TVs. However, the Internet is so slow you can’t really watch them (no cable as listed). Not fault of the host. What can you do about the Internet however, we were relying on the information given that the house had a DVD player and cable. So we drove a half an hour to buy our own DVD player. It would’ve been nice to know there was not an icemaker nor ice cube trays, we could do bought some before arriving. None of the coffee makers were in usable order. With that being said, it is a great place and a great location. We would definitely rent here again.

Weekend with friends
Our stay was a great time. We stayed here last year as well and it was just as it was before. Hosts have everything set up nicely and easily to follow thru checkin to check out. Only thing that could have worked better was the basement sink faucet, which wasn’t working the best, but it didn’t stop us from a great stay.

Overall great place to stay in Grafton
Pros: modern, clean, well stocked, walking distance to all of Grafton (1 mile or less) Cons: basement futon not comfortable to sleep on at all, basement bathroom faucet had little to no water pressure making brushing teeth, washing face difficult but I'm sure this is an easy fix.
