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!

December 03, 2012
We stayed in the 2-bedroom cottage with some friends celebrating a birthday in October. My husband and I stayed in the 1-bedroom cottage in November celebrating his birthday Both times were amazing. The cottages are very warm and inviting, charming and very clean. Mike and Nancy are great people. The gift shop has lots of nice things and the flip-flop wine is really good. We plan on staying in March for our anniversary. Can't wait!!!

We had a wonderful time staying at Jenni J's cottage. It was so nice a cozy and the owners were so friendly. We would love to go back a visit again and will bring friends next time. Thank you for the wonderful vacation.
3.8 out of 5Lovely weekend in Grafton
October 30, 2012
Over all our stay in Jeni J's Cottages was nice. We stayed in the one-bedroom the first night and it was fine. We stayed in the 3 bedroom cottage the second night and that was very, very nice. The two cottages have a lot of St. Louis Cardinals decor and I would have preferred something more sports neutral as I am not a Cardinals/baseball fan, Nancy and Mike are very nice and very easy to work with. Value-wise, I thought it was a bit pricey, but I do not have anything to compare it to as this was our first time in Grafton. We will be back though as we had a great time!
