    My new husband and I spent our wedding night and night after at Crane Creek and we couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect getaway! Andy and Bambi are incredible and the Inn is AMAZING!! From the comfortable beds to the gorgeous views to the outstanding breakfast we couldn't have been happier! The only thing I would change is the length of our stay, we were NOT ready to leave and we can't wait to go back! The location is perfectly close to downtown restaurants but makes you feel like you're on your own island. I wish there were more than 5 stars!!!


    Great new owners and super inn

    Andy and Bami have really done a great makeover. The location is perfect, you can walk to everything. Pool and jacuzzi are top notch. Any time you spend here will be time well spent.


    Thanks Andy!

    Um es kurz zu machen: tolles Haus, tolle Gastgeber, toller Pool, tolles Frühstück. Die Zimmer sind angenehm eingerichtet. Hier kriegt man alles, was man für einen entspannenden Urlaub braucht. Die Lage ist sehr zentral, nahe am Meer, eine Stunde bis Disney und Orlando, Kennedy Space Center eine halbe Stunde.

    My husband and I just spent 5 nights at the Crane Creek Inn B&B and enjoyed our visit very much. We stayed in the Ida Mae room and found it quite lovely - with jacuzzi for two and great deck off of bedroom to enjoy Andy's individually prepared breakfasts to order. And the complimentary beverages of wine, beer and soda were a bonus. The water views from well maintained property are lovely. The swimming pool was heated to 83 - perfect! The location is perfect for walking to town for shopping and dining in the Old Town district. Andy and Bambi go the extra mile to insure your stay is a wonderful experience that you will want to return to again some day. We hope to! Kathy and Eric, Basking Ridge, NJ
