About the host

Host profile image
I love to travel and am proud to have set foot on all seven continents. Throughout my wanderlust (27 countries and counting) I have met some wonderful people, had some memorable adventures, and I feel that hosting others is a new and interesting way to "Ramble On".

Why they chose this property

This home caught my eye from the moment I came to Grafton. It's on the edge of town with possibly the best water views in all of Grafton. The glass overhead door and open lower level make for fabulous hosting opportunities and it's hard to beat grabbing a bicycle or grabbing running shoes or grabbing a pet leash and taking a few steps to the paved trail which goes for miles in both directions.
