Greg and Lauren are amazing, you can tell they really care about their inn & restaurant. Lauren's customer service from start to finish was great, Greg's knowledge on his food and drinks menu was great. The location was amazing, we had a view of the bay and could hear the crashing waves at night, which was so therapeutic. Only downside was because it was an abnormally hot day during our stay, things got a little hot in the rooms since there is not a/c, but otherwise things were great. Food at the restaurant is delicious, please make a reservation if you're staying here, you will not regret it. Would definitely recommend and stay here again if we're ever in the area.

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!

Amazing!

Beautiful artwork and surroundings. Air conditioner would not work. Rustic and comfortable (except for air). Inn keepers very helpful and friendly. Proximity to Rockland very useful.

Lovely spot! Lauren and Greg so friendly and welcoming; Lauren is an excellent problem solver and gave great tips for Clark Island hiking.

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!

The Inn is truly a hidden gem. We only stayed 2 nights, wish we could have stayed much longer! Even though we are amidst pandemic, Greg and Lauren have done an amazing job to make you feel safe and welcomed. The property is well situated, short walk to what seemed like private beach/cove - lovely! The Inn is not fancy, but rather a throw back to earlier, simpler times -
Greg prepared a bonfire for us In the evening while we chatted, sampled his hand-crafted cocktails (yum), and shared some laughs.
Great gourmet breakfasts; however we missed the restaurant opening by a week :((
I would certainly stay at the Craignair again and look forward to sampling some of Lauren’s homemade ice cream next time!
Thank-you!

This is a gem of an inn. I arrived late, but was the only one staying there that night. Greg moved me to a larger room looking over the water. If I am ever in Maine again, I would consider the Craignair! It was a truly wonderful stay with great hosts.
4.5
Our stay at this charming inn was wonderful! We stayed in the St. George room which gave us great views of the peninsula. The room and bathroom were extremely clean. The owners made themselves available to answer questions as well as give recommendations for things to do, restaurants, etc. Sadly the restaurant was closed for the season so we couldnt enjoy dinner there but breakfast was delicious with several entrees and sides to choose from. The owners, Greg and Lauren, are a lovely couple and we hope their run as innkeepers is a long, profitable and happy one.

Loved it, beautiful location, very friendly owners
4.5
I loved how all of the rooms were different themes/designs. I booked last minute, so there were rooms much nicer than mine which were unavailable. The owners were very helpful and I had great conversation with him, never met her, but I wasnt there much. Lovely porch for sitting, with views of the water. Only two issues I had were: no ceiling fan in my room, as advertised, but the owner got me a table fan and fixed that, and I never read anywhere that my room was on the 3rd floor. This was only a problem for getting my luggage up and down, but it could be problematic for others. Overall a very nice place to stay!

Great spot on a cove - wonderful Maine seacoast views. Good breakfasts. Restaurant for dinner was super.

We arrived with our pet and they said, "oh my you have a pet, lets see what we can do". I advised them that I already made a reservation and noted that we had a pet with us. I was asked to pay another $84 from my already $210 dollars already charged on my card when I booked online. After this, we were escorted to our room. As soon as we entered, I noticed now HOTTTT it was in there! AND the room had 2 twin size beds! I booked and was charged for a queen size bed! I asked her is there at least a fan for us?? She brought over 2 very small "table size" fans. :/ . Awful sleep experience!!! The next day we went to the FREE breakfast they also advertised online. We ordered breakfast. An hour goes by and we were still waiting! They forgot our order!!! Really?!?!?!?! I went to them and they asked "hmmm. what did you order, I'll double check on this". 20 minutes later, we had our breakfast!
4.5
Top notch food. Beautiful location. Very accommodating hosts! Large room. The only comment would be super firm bed. And a lot of stairs for second floor of annex. But would stay again!
4.5
We really enjoyed our stay there. One little issue we had was with the lack of vanity space in the bathroom as we didn't have any surface to rest our toiletry items. For the rest, it was truly enjoyable. The walls were a little thin in the Annex so even if your neighboring travelers were just talking, you could hear them, but at this time of year, after the first night, it was pretty quiet. The breakfast was great as was the restaurant's dinner menu. If you have difficulty climbing steps, request a first floor room as the stairs are quite steep.

Stayed here the night before a wedding. Very pleasant facility, wonderful owners working hard to satisfy their clients. I thought it was a good value for the price. Bed was good, shared bathrooms not a problem. Breakfast was tasty, although came as a preconfigured plate.

We enjoyed our stay, and even though we opted not to have a private bath, we had a good experience, a very clean, comfortable room on the third floor (no elevator) with a view of the water. We woke to spectacular early dawn skies from our room and also enjoyed low tide walking at sunrise across the causeway.

We had a lovely time

This is a great place to stay in.Clean and nice people good food.Not much to do around the place but you can walk around the island.Much nicer then a regular hotel.

We probably stayed there on one of the hottest nights of the last decade on mid-coast Maine. There was a fan in the bedroom but only 1 window and no cross ventilation. Otherwise, a nice spot, friendly staff, good breakfast.
4.5
I liked the ambiance , About the only negative is that we had a shared bathroom.
4.5
We had a short stay at the Craignair and wish we had more time! Loved the quiet location and the inn itself is very charming and wellkept. Views of the ocean right out of our window! Room was nice and clean. Note that there isn’t cell service if you have AT&T. That wasn’t a big deal at all to us, especially since there is WiFi. Inn keeper, Joanne was very nice! And the breakfast served was absolutely delicious. We loved the homemade blueberry muffins! If you are looking for a quaint little inn away from it all, this is a great place! And still only 15-20 minutes from dining and other attractions in Rockland! We would definitely come back here someday if ever visiting Maine again.
