Beautiful historic Inn! We were visiting for a wedding and had a wonderful time! The inn and outbuildings are clean, equipped with modern amenities, and decorated to provide that historic feel. We absolutely loved the Phelps barn (of course!). Delicious food and drink! If you're looking for a quintessential Vermont getaway, this is the place to go!

**5 Stars – A Charming Escape!** Our stay at The Grafton Inn was absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like family. The historic inn is beautifully preserved, with cozy rooms and an inviting atmosphere. The breakfast each morning was delicious, and the charming village setting made for a peaceful getaway. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing and scenic escape in Vermont!...See More

Cute B&B. Breakfast food was delicious. We stayed at the Allard house. It was clean and comfortable. The people are very nice. The small couch downstairs could use an update.

- Coleen Filingeri

We had a wonderful weekend at the Grafton Inn attending a wedding. Friendly, courteous and professional staff, great rooms and facilities. We also enjoyed hiking and biking -the inn had plenty of bikes available for free for guests. We wish we could have stayed longer...

- Lars Larsen

Perfect wedding venue. My room was beautiful and very clean. The wedding weekend was spread out amongst the different parts of the inn (dining hall, patio, tavern, swimming pond, etc) which kept it fresh and interesting. Food, drink and service were excellent, too. Highly recommend for a wedding and reception.
