But “holding an older house together was getting to be difficult,” she added. Thus were sown the seeds for the all-new Lantern Lane.

Drawing from 10 years’ experience hosting singles and couples, and larger groups for clinic weekends, in thenhome, the Craigs planned the Lantern Lane accordingly. “Basically, it boils down to the four Rs,” Debbie Craig explained. “Someone coming to a bed and breakfast, spejifically to a horse bed and breakfast, wants to rest, relax, read and ride.

“The old place had charm, but the new place will have that, plus a new hot tub,” she added.

Antique quilts, tons of pillows, an extensive equestrian library with books and videos, and a pool round out the new Lantern Lane.

Though house construction is not yet complete, the new stable is, and the Craigs are open for business as usual. “We steer guests to stay at other nearby B&Bs while we’re finishing the house,” Debbie Craig said. “But our lesson program continues as usual.”
