    This B&B is easily one of the nicest I've stayed in, and I've certainly stayed in my share. The rooms are gorgeous, the hosts were always friendly and helpful, the location is second to none, and the breakfast is to die for! I would wholeheartedly recommend staying here.

    What a great way to start my trip. Bob and Fran were so friendly and took the time to talk to me about the area and other interests. The location is amazing--off the main street so it was quiet, but basically right next to Dock Square. I walked everywhere in town and appreciated the ease of seeing things on foot when so much of what I did was drive to other places. The breakfasts were delightful, well presented and delicious. My room was large and comfortable. The only reason I marked it down was because the bathroom was small and oddly positioned. I think that it was sometimes used in combination with another room/suite so that was why it was where it was. Otherwise I would definitely recommend the Chetwynd House Inn for a lovely vacation spot!
