PLEASE NOTE:

WIFI:

Northern Arizona's Wi-Fi can be unreliable. However, at Craig's Old House, we provide Starlink Wi-Fi, which offers the best internet connection available on the mountain.

WILDLIFE:

Don't be surprised if you spot a skunk, raccoon, squirrel, chipmunk, wasp, bees, etc., in the area or even walking by in the yard. We live on the mountain, and these animals roam freely. Please remember that Williams has a no-feeding-wildlife law, so make sure to avoid feeding them—and you definitely don’t want to be sprayed by a skunk!

BATHROOM:

Craig's Old House bathroom has sustained our family of six since 1979. It offers a stunning 7-foot clawfoot tub, which we’ve converted into a convenient tub/shower combo. Just a heads-up, you’ll need to step in carefully—please take caution! Whether you prefer a refreshing shower or a relaxing bath, we hope you appreciate the history and character this space offers. While it's not modern, it has plenty of charm. We’re planning to add a second bathroom with a walk-in shower in the future to make your stay even more comfortable.

BATHROOM DOOR LOCK:

To release the lock, the bathroom door must be pushed inward slightly.

OLD HOUSE STYLE:

Craig's Old House was intentionally designed to preserve its original old-world charm, offering guests a true experience of stepping back in time. With its original architectural details like crown molding, hardwood floors, or a cast-iron tub, the house provides a unique glimpse into the past. The property features 4 bedrooms but only 3 are available, 1 bathroom, and spacious living areas, allowing guests to enjoy the character and craftsmanship of an era gone by. Please note, this is not a modern, sleek home—expect antique furnishings, classic design, and a cozy, nostalgic atmosphere. It’s an opportunity to enjoy a piece of history, not the latest in contemporary style.

CLOSETS/BASEMENT:

Please be advised that all closets and basement doors have been locked, and no entry is permitted. We have provided everything you need in each room, so access to these areas is not necessary. Any attempt to unlock the closets or basement door will result in a charge. These areas are locked to protect the home, its boiler system, and store supplies. Thank you for your understanding.

ART-DECORATIONS:

Please be aware that any stolen or damaged artwork or family collectible artifacts will result in charges to the responsible party. To protect valuable artifacts, plexiglass has been placed over certain pieces. If the plexiglass is broken or removed, you will also be charged for the damages. During the cleaning process, a thorough checklist will be completed, and any missing or damaged items will be promptly reported. We hope you enjoy the artwork as much as our family does. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

PET POLICY:

We’re happy to welcome your pet to our property! To ensure everyone has a great experience, pets will be allowed on a case-by-case basis, following a simple approval process to ensure they are well-trained. Please keep the following in mind:
• Main House: For the comfort of all guests, pets shall stay outside or kenneled on the back deck (kennels provided) and are not allowed inside the main house.
