Village Haven is just what it sounds like. It is a haven for guests to rest and recharge, and yet be right in the beautiful village of Grafton, Vermont. Village Haven is a large apartment above our barn with its own private entry. There is a lovely king size bed, as well as a comfortable day bed, should you need to accommodate another guest or child. There is a well appointed kitchen with a double sink, a microwave, toaster over, single electric burner, a coffee maker and a mini fridge. All linens, towels, dishes and soaps are provided. There is a lovely round farmhouse table and comfortable leather chairs, benches, all with a view of the village. Village Haven has a large new beautiful bath. The bath has a marble two sink vanity, a deep bathtub as well as a shower. Village Haven is directly across from the charming Town Garden, and next door to the Village Blacksmith shop. You can park your car and never move it during your stay. All that Grafton has to offer is an easy walk away. In winter you can cross country ski right from the door. Come visit Grafton's galleries, and shops. Come eat in our restaurants. Come bike, ski or walk on our trails. You'll be so glad you did!

Had a wonderful relaxing birthday weekend here! Mary was very kind and had a wonderful property. Exactly the reset I needed before grad school finals. Thank you Mary!
Beautiful studio apartment in a quiet and peaceful area
This was my third stay in this lovely apartment. Not many things in life can be counted on to be even better than we remember, but Grafton Village Haven never disappoints. The studio is clean, comfortable and beautifully ready for guests. Mary is so accommodating and one of the kindest people I have met.
Absolutely wonderful place to stay that exceeded expectations. Grafton Village Haven will be our go to for future visits to the area. We look forward to our next stay.
Mary's apartment was so much more than we expected! Cozy, comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. Simply but beautifully decorated. The location is the best with views of the village and the village garden. Will definitely be returning!
Village Haven greatly exceeded my expectations! It was lovely and so comfortable you felt as though you were home . . . while being away from home. The apartment was spotless. It offered all the amenities of being at home. It was quiet and peaceful, while offering you all sorts of things to do while you were there. It is situated in a lovely location in the Town of Grafton. It was very
easy to communicate with the host, Mary. I thoroughly
enjoyed my time there, and I look forward to returning again in the future.
This was my second stay at Grafton Village Haven and plan on returning. Beautiful, well appointed, and excellent location in Grafton village! Immaculate rental with everything you would need. Mary is accommodating and very responsive.
Quintessential Vermont spot with all the amenities you would need to stay longer than we did. This rental is perfectly situated, has a well-outfitted kitchen (even though we didn't use it) and high quality pillows. We enjoyed a wedding weekend and the ceremony and reception was only a short walk away.
Another delightful stay at GVH! It now feels like our home away from home! The unit is very spacious and equipped with everything you need. (A full-size mirror would be a useful addition.) The setting is beautiful and Mary is an excellent host. Thanks!
This property was perfect for our quiet getaway. It’s located in the heart of a small village, but the village and the property have so much to offer. There is food delicious food close by, and you can eat it there or bring it back to the apartment, which has a nice kitchenette. You can wander in the village or hop in your car and travel to see more of the state. Grafton Village Haven is a great place to stay. The property owner is friendly and well organized. We had fun, and hope to return in the future.
Grafton Village Haven is a perfect place to stay. Everything was fantastic. Grafton itself is adorable; very cute and quiet, but an easy (and beautiful) drive to anywhere you want to go. Highly recommended!
We had a lovely 3 night stay in Grafton and are so glad we stayed with Mary. There are many thoughtful amenities at the Haven, in addition to a lovely location in the midst of so many historic sites. When we had a question she was quick to respond, but in general everything was taken care of so well that we didn't need anything. Would definitely stay there again, with pleasure.
This was our second time staying here for 4th of July weekend. It’s the perfect location, great price, and a very comfortable and clean apartment. Very spacious for a studio with a nice, large bathroom. I highly recommend.
This property was exactly what we needing for a recent wedding in Grafton. Walkable to the cute town, good sized loft, big renovated bathroom, lots of closet space and well organized. It was bigger than pictures portrayed. Communication with host very easy and responsive.
Just beautiful ,super clean,everything you would need but no tv which truly creates a serene envirmoment. A beautiful area ,across from Village Haven a few steps away ,of flowers and trees with tables to eat outside.this is our 3rd time coming. The host is very accomodating. .highly recommended.
What a lovely place Mary has. So spacious, yet warmly inviting! We enjoyed 2 wonderful, sleepful nights. Double sinks in bathroom with great water pressure! Coffee maker with all the fixins and a tea kettle too! I could go on and on, but will just finish with, Grafton Village Haven is THE place to stay in Grafton, Hands down!!! Thank you Mary!

This was my second stay at Grafton Village Haven and I enjoyed my time as much as I had last year. I needed a quiet "retreat" to work on a project, and not be interrupted by daily tasks. Mary's apartment is so clean, so open and light filled, even on the mostly rainy days of this week. I feel safe and able to take long walks through and outside of the charming village at any time. The apartment is separate enough from the rest of the dwelling that it is quiet, yet completely accessible.
I hope to take another retreat there soon.
Great place to stay to enjoy Grafton and the surrounding towns. Clean, private and easy to check in and out. Look forward to staying here again.
