Company History
The Inn began construction in 1928 and was opened in 1930 to house workers from the nearby quarries on Clark Island and was converted into an Inn in 1947.
Evidence of the quarry workers’ time is also portrayed in the beautiful granite causeway that stretches across the water to Clark Island, where a great quarry was once the center of this picturesque village. Clark Island is a magical place located just across the causeway from The Craignair Inn. Clark Island has been settled since the 1780s and was an active granite quarry until the 1950s. Clark Island granite was used in the construction of the Central Park bridges and gate houses, and in the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, both in New York City, and the Library of Congress in Washington, just to name a few.
