About this property

Grafton Getaway - Farmhouse on 23 secluded acres sleeping 28 guests

Grafton Getaway - Farm is a secluded 23 acre property with chickens, ducks, fishing, wooded walking trail, and barn hayloft sleeping quarters. The Farm is one of 8 Grafton Getaway Guesthouses and is just 10 minutes from Grafton and 38 minutes from Lambert St Louis airport

Amenities are plentiful at our hobby farm and include:
*hammocks, swings, and a putting green
*trampoline, bbq grill, ping pong table, giant yard chess, and kids zone in barn
*smokeless Tiki firepit with free firewood along with a gas fire pit in the Gazebo
*classic record player and complimentary coffee/tea/hot choc in the full kitchen
*foosball, free fiber WiFi, free naps, frisbee golf
*82 inch smart Tv for rainy days or to watch our fav DVD - "Funny Farm"
*additional smart Tv's in master suite and basement

Listen to the sounds of nature (songbirds, cows, hawks, coyotes) as you will not hear any highway. Step outside to see if our chickens have produced farm fresh eggs for you (they lay more eggs when happy, so be sure to smile at them during check in), and scan our pear/peach/apple trees for a ripe fruit. Then find inspiration for your next travel journey in our "Adventure Room" complete with books, maps, and travel trinkets from our own adventures. Next, grab our fishing gear and try for a bass or perch or catfish (catch and release). Then relax in our hammock or gazebo or walk along our wooded trail which has benches to sit for a bit to read, relax, contemplate, or meditate.

We utilize staggered pricing so that smaller groups pay less than larger groups. Inquire if further questions. Weekends require a minimum of 6 guests. Pet fee is $50. Guests at hotels call the front desk when they need something...so if ever during a stay you feel your satisfaction is not at a 5-star level please call/text us right away, while you are still with us, so we can remedy the situation and make your stay all you hoped it would be.
