I loved the Craignair Inn, and walking the trails on Clark Island. It was quiet once the group of very loud women left. The food was spectacular, as was my room, with water views out of all three windows. The owners, and all the staff were extremely friendly, and helpful. I would definitely go back!

We had the most wonderful stay here at the Craignair Inn. From the moment we arrived we were met with incredible hospitality. We had our dog with us and the Inn went above and beyond to make her stay wonderful as well. There were so many touches that made us all feel included, like the vegan food options, the little library of books, and the art on display! Truly a beautiful property and we can’t wait to return!
