We had a fantastic stay at Crafts with our family this year. We stayed in cabin one and there had been some updates like new screen doors. We had no mice or sign of them. We love the set up, we usually rent all the cabins, our family is large! Thank Mary and Nancy for the hospitality, see you next year!

The location is fantastic! Just don't expect 5* accomodations and you'll be very pleased. They are very accommodating for boats and larger parties. Close to downtown and far enough away for quiet.

I've stayed here a few times when I come to KI and I love this place. The woman who runs it is very very, the rooms no frills, but are very clean, comfortable & quiet -- and a fair price (compared to elsewhere on the Island) when I've stayed there.

We had a hotel room, it was nice, clean, and comfortable. There was direct TV and A.C. The beds were comfortable and good pillows. The place was also quiet. We slept well.
