8/10 Good
"Very beautiful location and cute place to stay however zero bath towels available. Two hand towels were suppose to be used for bathing in a room that slept four. No shampoo, etc amenities but biggest issue was the towels. Even the hand towels for showering were quality of old kitchen dish towels. The location is beautiful but a few extra dollars could be invested in making your Guest feel welcome."

Churchill Pointe Inn

10/10 Excellent
"This is a nice inn. The rooms are on the second floor and you must access by steps. The first floor is a restaurant, shop and office. The room was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was pastries, left right at your door. They were excellent. The key to our room was left for us. We never saw any staff - but there really was no need. I would stay here again if I return to this area."
