This is our first time staying at PSI, we came with long time friends, beautiful place and very friendly staff. Rooms are very clean, the Inn is very clean. Sitting on the porch enjoying the ocean breeze was relaxing. We met some wonderful people who were also staying at the Inn. We ate dinner the first night there, wow very good food and an excellent wait staff. I am someone who can find something wrong with something, however, I can not say anything wrong. It was a perfect 3 day getaway. We will return next year.

We have stayed here several times over the years during different seasons of the year and enjoyed every visit. With COVID-19 there were some different rules this visit, but it was all still very enjoyable. We will surely return in the future.

PSI is a wonderful place to eat. The food is perfectly prepared and the atmosphere is outstanding. Sits on property overlooking the ocean. It is BYOB so bring your favorite wine. They do offer wine from a local winery.

My wife and I dined for our anniversary at the beginning of the month and as usual it was amazing from start to finish. Dotty (our server) was was the best, informative, attentive and gracious. Course after course the food just kept getting better. Would highly recommend for a special occasion or even just to treat yourselves...you wont be disappointed.

After my daughter returned from her elopement we met at Peter Shields Inn. The service was amazing, our wait staff leader was AJ. AJ made sure that the biggest details, the champagne toast for the parents of the bride were all timed and executed perfectly. He also made sure the cake was presented, cut and served elegantly. Our food was timely and perfect. It was hit, prepared excellently and brought to the table all at once so that no one had cold food while waiting for everyone to be served. AJ made sure the wine was served and glasses were kept full, maybe a little too full for some? Hah It was a wedding! I can't say enough about Peter Shield Inn for a special occasion, you may not get to have AJ serve you, but you can ask!!!
