Fantastic!

Review submitted: February 6, 2012   Date of arrival: February 3, 2012

We come to the area every winter to explore the countryside and view the migrating eagles, swans and pelicans. Grafton Pointe was everything promised....beautiful, clean, comfortable and well-stocked. The view is magnificent and we enjoyed the eagles perching in the trees just off the deck each morning. It was a great weekend-value for two couples!

Our family of 6 stayed here in June and it was simply fabulous. Everything is as described, and watching the sun over the river is even better then the picture illustrates. It really felt like a home away from home with ample space, a yard to play in for the kids, television, and comfortable beds. I must say as a mother, it was important we ate healthy while on vacation, and having a grill and a full kitchen allowed me to keep my family staying healthy. When the kids are sleeping, there's a romantic setting out on the deck, just bring a glass of wine and enjoy the view. I recmmend staying here over a hotel, you will be very happy you did.
