Cozy Getaway

My wife and I had a great stay. The space well thought out, functional, cozy and perfect for two! Short drive to downtown Stillwater ( walk if you are in shape enough but the walk back would be all uphill). We would definitely stay again!

Charm of Churchill stay

The Charm of Churchill was a really nice property for our stay in Stillwater. The location really couldn’t be better being in historic downtown Stillwater, just a short walk to all the downtown shops and restaurants. The amenities were thoughtful and included a well-stocked kitchen to a comfortable bed with different pillow options. The host made everything so easy with contactless check-in, clear communication, and a helpful welcome guide with their contact info readily available. The space itself was one of the cleanest rentals we’ve ever stayed in and was beautifully designed to honor Stillwater’s Victorian charm while providing all the modern comforts. The tasteful decorations and attention to detail truly made the stay memorable. Plus, the neighborhood was so quiet, making it easy to relax and feel at home. If you’re visiting Stillwater, don’t hesitate to book this fantastic property!
