My wife and I stayed in the Wharf party suite and were VERY happy with the room. It was absolutely spotless upon arrival and had everything you could need. This was definitely the way to go. For the same price of a moderate hotel room we got 4x the space, a kichenette, front porch to hang out on, and a view of the river. It is within walking distance of a few of Grafton's nice wineries, eateries, and zip line. Guys, if you want to treat your lady well, Jeni J's is a perfect night out. Do it.

February 19, 2013
This is the second time we rented the two bedroom cottage at Jeni J's. We go with friends to celebrate our husbands' birthdays which are close in date. Mike and Nancy are great hosts - always willing to go above and beyond to help. The rooms are charming, inviting and very clean. Lots to do in the area - eagle watching, wine tasting and more!
