4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 June 2013 NEW

This was everything we wanted it to be: a place for the four of us (parents and two kids of high school and college age) to hang out for a couple of days and recharge. The kids (fresh off exams) could sleep in, while the two of us could enjoy morning coffee in the deck chairs looking out over the... More

We stayed at the Craignair this past April, and highly recommend this to all. It was spotlessly clean, has comfortable beds, and a spectacular view. Joanne and Michael are very gracious hosts. They were very helpful for restaurant suggestions, available when you needed them and completely respected your privacy. Michael's homemade breakfast was outstanding & actually the best I've ever...

Since discovering the Craignair Inn with my daughter at the end of August, 2012 , I have returned for three more visits, most recently just over a week ago. I've fallen in love with this unique, homey, beautifully situated inn with its wonderfully attentive, friendly and hard working owners, Joanne and Michael. I've brought a cousin and my sister and...

A friend and I stayed at the Inn for 4 nights. Arriving late, we didn't know what to expect, but a note was waiting for us inside, the kindness of which was just part and parcel of what you can expect at the Craignair Inn. The following morning we met Joanne and their sweet (and, importantly, hypoallergenic!) jackadoodle Mimi. The... More

I am quite the globetrotter and I have been exposed to a wide range of accommodations for both business and personal matters. I am particularly fond of bed and breakfast as the quality of the service and food is typically higher than what one would experience at a resort or hotel. I recently made the trek to Maine for a...

Thank you Kathy. It was a pleasure to meet you and we are glad you felt so relaxed during your stay. We look forward to hosting you again (hopefully not during a blizzard next time...but sometimes a roaring fire and no where to go is exactly what we all need!) Thanks for leaving the room tip as well. We definitely... More

Craignair Inn, nestled right up against the ocean's shore, lends an extremely desirable destination location. Experiencing the quaint, cozy surroundings, amazing ocean views, and roaring wood burning fires in the gathering room...I felt completely relaxed throughout my stay, and didn't want to leave! The Inn is beautiful and our room was very pretty and inviting. COMFORTABLE BED!! The owner's, Michael... More

I met the owners while I was vacationing in Maine and decided to give their place a try on my next trip to Maine. I arrived late at night and my key was waiting for me. The inn is gorgeous. My room was excellent. Everything I wanted and needed could be found in the room. Breakfast overlooking the water with... More

This is a charming place and the rooms are a nice departure from standard hotel rooms. The staircase at the Inn is definitely steep and the rooms are on the 2nd and 3rd floor. The rooms in both the Inn and the Annex are nicely decorated with antiques, cozy and clean. The Annex Rooms would be a better choice over... More

We had a surprise party for my husband's birthday at The Craignair and many of our friends and family stayed there as well.
