Photos and Description of the Grafton vacation cottage rental
Cottage, 1 Bedroom + Den, 1 Bath, (Sleeps 2-4)

This cottage has been completely renovated and update to include a well appointed galley kitchen and full bath. The vaulted ceilings and exposed beams make add to the charm. It is located directly behind the main house, just a few yards from the Grafton River. The private laundry facility is just a few steps away - in the cellar of the main house. There are plenty of Adirondack chairs and tables to enjoy a seat by the river or to gather around the fire pit.

The village center is a short walk away. There you will find the historic Grafton Inn and Tavern, art galleries, tennis courts, museums and more.

Keywords: exposed beams, gas fireplace, fully equipped kitchen, no smoking on property
About Charlene Case

We are the Case family - Brian and Charlene and our three young boys. When we are not in Vermont, our main residence is in Somers, Connecticut. We enjoy road and mountain biking, skiing, hiking, soccer, and hockey (the boys). Brian is an investment manager while Charlene is an Ob/Gyn.

Charlene Case purchased this cottage in 2010
Why Charlene Case chose Grafton

After renting in Grafton, Vermont for a couple of winters, we decided to find a home of our own. We have enjoyed the close proximity to Grafton Ponds for cross country skiing and are looking forward to exploring more of the area during the other seasons as well. The town is quiet and well-maintained, the locals friendly, and the pace a bit slower than what we experience at home.

What makes this cottage unique

Both of us have extended family in the New England area with whom we enjoy spending vacation time. As well, we have many friends who share our love of the outdoors. We have such great memories of time away with these loved ones, away from the hustle and bustle of our every day lives. The house is a quiet retreat where we play games, have meals, and just reconnect. We really enjoy being just minutes from the cross country skiing at Grafton Ponds where there is also a tubing hill, a new biathalon course, and swimming and mountain biking in the warmer weather.

Just right

5 of 5
Submitted: May 7, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
Located at the edge of Grafton and right along the Saxtons River, I really enjoyed my stay in this cozy and just perfect cottage. Charlene was a joy to connect with -- always promptly responding to my occasional emails. The bed is super comfortable. More (and better) cookware and crockery to use in the kitchen than most vacation rentals are stocked with. I was traveling alone, so the cozy size was perfect. And I think to call it a couple's retreat is perfect. Excellent broadband wi-fi. I use AT&T and their is a tower somewhere close to the center of town. Don't miss checking out the Grafton Village Cheese shop and factory. Groceries can be had at the market in town across from the post office or you can drive about 20 minutes north to Springfield and stock up at a Shaw's for a bit less. My favorite part of my stay: opening the door each morning and hearing the river. More often than not, I would just wander down to watch it, enjoy the sound, and revel in the play of the sunlight on the water. There really is nothing more relaxing and my stay at this cottage was exactly that. Highly recommended!

Perfect winter getaway

5 of 5
Submitted: January 3, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
Our experience could not have been better! We loved our stay in this little cottage -- it was the perfect place to get away for several winter days.

It was extremely easy to make the reservations -- Charlene was quick to reply to any emails and gave us great tips for activities in Grafton.

The town of Grafton is small and charming, with great cross-country skiing and snowshoeing (and a tubing hill) and it is close enough to larger towns and places to go downhill skiing that we could choose from a wide range of activities each day (or we could stay put and read books all day if that's how we felt). It was great.

Had a Great Time!

We loved staying here - the cottage was super clean and comfortable and had everything we needed - including wi-fi to help us plan our days. Grafton village is great as well, and there Long Trail's nearby. Charlene left us very detailed instructions and was very fast and friendly in getting back to us - much appreciated!

All in all a great weekend!

Grafton: The perfect town to start out a honeymoon

5 of 5
Submitted: June 20, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
After the wedding, my wife and I decided to stay at this cottage for the first two nights of our honeymoon before continuing to Canada for the rest of our vacation. I think staying here was one of the best decisions we made on the honeymoon. Grafton is tiny, we walked through the town and went to all the stores in a day, but that day was amazing. If you walk down the trail behind the town elementary school you will find your way into a sheep barn associated with the local cheese and wine factory (must go there). When not in town we went back to the cottage and literally sat in the middle of the Grafton River which was really shallow at the time. It felt great. All in all, love the cottage, love the town. I would suggest only spending a day or two here because there is not too much to do, but I really enjoyed my time here.
