Cozy and Relaxing

Lovely, sweet inn and so close to downtown Glen Rose. Welcoming and friendly staff. The cool breezes under the shade trees near the water were the perfect place to sit and read or just watch the water go by. Staff was so accomodating and helpful. Rooms were large and quiet.

The staff was very friendly and welcoming. It felt more like a B&B than a hotel. We were there for a hiking event as were many other guests. The staff went above and beyond with a special breakfast served earlier than the normal breakfast hours.

Gem of a place

This gem on the Paluxy River was a delight Relaxing and extremely dog friendly with the most gracious of hosts. Breakfast every morning was a delight and the tavern/restaurant was outstanding! No tv in the small rooms but it was not missed and there’s WiFi if you must. The town of Glen Rose is quaint and lovely. So if you find yourself looking for a place to stay in the area, I’d definitely recommend Inn OnThe River.

An absolutely delightful stay. Very well behaved four legged hosts, and a charming two legged innkeeper! The food is outstanding and there is a game and puzzle closet available, that also includes a few books. A word of advice: the stairs to the second floor are in excellent condition, but if climbing stairs isn’t for you - request a downstairs room. We were unaware of this when making our reservation, but they were able to move us to a ground-level room. Highly recommend
