A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY
In 1943 my parents purchased the 80-acre farm, farmhouse and barn for $2,800. In 1944 the current home was built on the site of the old homestead. The white barn is the original barn that was on the property when my parents purchased the farm which makes it about 100 years old.

At the time, America was using all of our resources to fight World War II, therefore building materials were hard to come by. All the lumber used to build the home in 1944 was used lumber bought from a lumber yard in Brighton Illinois.
There was no basement in the original farmhouse, so dad dug the basement with a scoop pulled by a team of mules and as the main support for the house my grandpa hand hewed the beam from a white oak timber found on the farm. This beam is still supporting the homestead to this day!

No electric, no gas, no running water!

It wasn’t until sometimes in the fifties did we have electric, until then we saw by kerosene lamps and mom cooked on a wood stove. There was no running water, but we had a cistern to catch rainwater which was then pumped into the house by a hand pump. You can still see the cistern around the back of the house.

Chicken, pigs and milk cows all lived on the farm.

In 1964 an addition was added onto the living room. In order the make way, the original steps (hand poured) needed to be moved. Daddy had an old John Deer tractor that he used to work the farm; it was all that tractor could do to move those old steps a few feet from the house where they remain today.

In 2003, with the help of my family, the Homestead Retreat was one of the first guest houses to open in Grafton. With a new front porch, the mud room converted into a sunroom, a fresh coat of paint and a few pillows we were ready to go. But mostly it's just like mom and dad left it. Yes, there is running water and indoor plumbing!!

Converting my childhood home into the Grafton Homestead Retreat has been, and still remains, a labor of love.

Wonderful & Relaxing
Our stay was wonderful - the house was clean and so welcoming. We spent a lot of time on the front porch reading. We loved the trails and walked them several times each day. Enjoyed sitting around the fire (bring fire wood if you don’t want to collect your own). Our stay was exactly what we needed - relaxing. Thank you!

Homestead Haven
We found The Homestead to be a wonderful haven, perfect for relaxation and hitting the "reset" button. It's so much more than a house -- it truly is a home. You can feel the love of a family throughout each room. We especially appreciated the untouched farm ambiance, just like walking into grandma's when we were young. We found the accommodations to be comfortable for our week long stay. We slept long and soundly every night! The trails and spots of serenity throughout the property were welcoming, thoughtful and special. Much time was spent outside walking, reading and peddling around the lake. During hot summer days, we appreciated ample shade provided by beautiful, mature trees and continuously commented about the constant gentle breeze. This farm homestead is packed with history and interesting finds, including wildlife. Thank you, Patricia and Shirley, for sharing your lovely home.

Homestead happiness
We had the best stay at the homestead! Everything was perfect and peaceful and the place had everything we needed for our stay and some very surprising extras too! They really put a lot of thought into the place and the kids said it was one of their best vacations yet! They loved the peddle boat and fishing and the "hangout" garage as well! Def recommend!

Mid week pre summer " brain" break
This was a post school end, pre summer activities brain break before our days were filled with busy schedules. Lovely property and house. My 19 year old throughly enjoyed fishing all hours of the day and night. 15 year old was tagging along for mum and brothers sake but in reality i could tell it did him good away from his faming machine and friends. My dog and i absolutely loved going on walks and exploring. If you are looking for getting away from city , modt definitely came to the right place.i would strongly advise packing some groceries or purchasing on u r wsy to retreat like basics eggs, bread , meat etc if you want to stay put. The nearest grocery is 30-45 mins away. We ate out 2 times but stayed put mostly. Definitely recommend Pere Marquette lodge restaurant. Thank you patricia and shirley for sharing your place.

A Terrific Thanksgiving
We enjoyed our stay at the Homestead Retreat very much! We gathered as a family to celebrate Thanksgiving and spent from Tuesday through Saturday morning there. Our hosts went above and beyond to make us comfortable, allowing us to park our camper and run electricity for heat so we had additional bed space and a place for our large dog to sleep and stay when we left the house. Some of our family stayed with us and other family members from St. Louis joined us just for dinner. The hosts provided such welcoming touches, too, such as the ingredients to make homemade pancakes, luxury shampoo and conditioner, all of the essential staples, and some yummy snacks. They called to check that we found everything we needed. Communication with them was always so easy. They responded quickly to any messages we sent. Our three generations of family had a wonderful Thanksgiving with lots of love and laughter in this cozy home. We hope to return sometime soon!
