    Under the old Oak Trees by the river

    @inn_on_the_river #glenrosetx is a gem of a stop. A relaxing afternoon, or plan an overnight! Historic Inn Snider's Tavern River view Adorable town Good food Cocktails, beer & wine Friendly folks Staff dogs Now, beg them to make the lemon moonshine cake a staple AMAZING! Plan a visit to Glen Rose, and be sure to plan a stop here .

    You can't resist this face. Greeted us from a long day of hiking.

    What a relaxing stay! Everyone, including the furry ones, were so friendly and went out of their way to make us feel at home. Pam and Scott made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. The room was clean and comfy. Our favorite part of the trip was sitting on the patio of the tavern, enjoying a bottle of wine from Snyder's Tavern, good conversation and watching the river roll by. Awww...I can't wait to go back!

    Best bed in the world!!!

    I have to say that I was skeptical about how much I would like the Inn. I am generally a shiny, new contemporary style girl when it comes to hotels. I have never slept better than at Inn on the River. The French feather beds were magical. I can't explain how comfortable they are!! And I could control the air in my room. No matter the price of the hotel (I've stayed at 2 that were 5 star hotels in the past month), they generally turn the air off in the middle of the night. It wakes me up and I never sleep the rest of the night. I like a cold room when I sleep and I had air all night at the Inn. The rooms were immaculate. I was in the Inn all day as the rooms were being cleaned and I saw how much time and effort they put in to each room. It is amazing how well they clean each and every inch of the place. Then there is the staff. They are unbelievably courteous and friendly. You feel just the right amount of interaction. And you always feel that they are genuinely thrilled to have you there and be allowed to host you. It makes you feel very at home. Breakfast is included with your room and it is so good!! I had to ask if everything was made on site because it was absolutely a 5 star breakfast. It is made on site and they clearly have an amazing chef. We also had a dinner catered for our group and it was one of the best meals I've had anywhere. I practically licked the balsamic dressing off of my plate. I asked and found out that their chef makes all of the dressings from scratch. I would love to see them bottle it, I would take it home with me!! Then the meal was cordon bleu with asparagus and carrots. I don't even like carrots and I ate every one of them!!! That was topped off with homemade apple pie. I had a cup of coffee with the dessert and it was the best coffee I've ever had. Overall, I would rather visit Inn on the River than just about any other place I've been. I feel relaxed and rejuvenated which is what you should feel after a vacation.

    Inn on the River is simply amazing! Covid craziness completely blew up our wedding plans and resulted in us having a home-town ceremony at our house with just our parents and children. But we still wanted our wedding day to be special, and Inn on the River came through! I checked in Saturday afternoon so my mom, step-daughter and I could get ready in the room. Pam was there to make sure we had everything we needed. We took a few pictures on the beautiful riverbank and at the singing tree before heading home for the ceremony. My husband and I returned to our room after a lovely dinner at Riverhouse Grill (deeelish!) to a freshly cleaned room (after I made a mess getting ready), a bottle of wine and a lovely congratulatory card. We had a wonderful breakfast before heading out and again, Pam made sure we had everything we needed. We had a wonderful day and the team at Inn on the River helped make it a beautiful and memorable occasion!

    Inn on the River in Glen Rose, TX is a perfect place to come and relax. The room was very clean and comfortable. The food was amazing! Pam and her staff are very accommodating and helpful, more like friends. We will be back

    Breakfast

    We stayed here years ago and loved it. This weekend we stayed again. We still loved it! The bed!!! The peace! The rest! The location! The breakfast! The staff (including the furry ones) were kind, helpful, informative! Snyder's Tavern (on site) served a yummy dinner and quality drinks! Dog friendly! Small, personable boutique hotel.

    Great place to spend a nice, relaxing weekend away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The rooms were quiet and quaint, and the entire facility was well maintained and clean. The bed was super comfy in our room. Breakfast was delicious and Pam and the other staff members were very helpful.

    Accommodating hosts and a beautiful facility. The restaurant/taverna overlooking the river is an added bonus.

    Picked up a Cobb salad with grilled chicken. The chicken had been grilled and refrigerated. It was very dry and I was very disappointed.

It's right next door to where the address on the Yelp Page will take you, but it is formerly the "Bakeshop." The staff mentioned to us the former building/house was being renovated to become an AirBnB or something. We were looking forward to patio seating given we had our pup with us, but the restaurant didn't have any, so we opted for drive-thru. The restaurant itself has a small parking lot. The woman who took our order was very kind and informative, as mentioned previously. I ordered an "Iced Latte with White Chocolate" and ordered the "Breakfast Burrito," which contained sausage, scrambled eggs, and cheese. The latte was good, creamy and sweet with the WC flavoring. The burrito was also good, not amazing, but good! I should have ordered 2 of them, it wasn't too big, so keep that in mind. The cheese was melted inside and the sausage was super flavorful. There was a section of my burrito in which the sausage was actually cold, which took me by surprise, but other than that it was good. Pricing was decent for what we ordered. We would come back if we were driving through again!!

    Everything was amazing! We typically zip through, stopping for chocolate if we stop. Today, we…read morepopped in for lunch. The chicken carpese burger was amazing! My husband got the hamburger.

We went on Fourth of July, wasn't sure if we would be able to see Fireworks from there but we could see some from across the lake looked like in Fort Worth, and from the parking lot we found close parking, and seen lots of people there and worked out good. It was nice there was seating, and people and restrooms in the area we stopped out so overall good and anytime we want to go look at the water and relax I will choose here and try to come more often.

    I hosted my event at the Lake House Event Center, and while the facility itself was clean and…read morewell-maintained, I want to share a few important details for anyone considering booking. First, this is not an all-inclusive venue. Many items are charged separately, including linens, use of the TV, AV equipment, and even certain rooms like the back room. These additional costs can add up quickly, so I recommend asking for a full breakdown of fees in advance. I also want to mention the policy regarding security officers. When I booked, I was told the officer requirement would be at the manager's discretion. I communicated multiple times that my event would end by 6 PM. However, I was still required to pay for an officer through 10 PM, even though the event ended much earlier. While I understand policies are in place, this was unexpected and felt unfair based on prior communication. One policy to be aware of is that open flames are not allowed. I was able to adjust without issue, but it's something to plan for ahead of time. Overall, the space itself is nice, but I strongly recommend getting clear, written confirmation of all fees, policies, and requirements before booking to avoid surprises.
