In the heart of Glen Rose, there is an oasis of tranquility known as Inn on the River. Breakfast each morning was a culinary adventure and such a great way to start the day. The room was well furnished and comfortable. The Inn is only a few blocks from the courthouse and local restaurants, which were excellent, and minutes from nearby attractions such as Dinosaur World, Dinosaur Valley State Park, and Fossil Rim Wildlife Center. Pam is such a delightful and charming hostess and Scott was such fun to talk with. Both are an integral part of Glen Rose who, out of a deep sense of community, have taken

My husband and I stayed here at Inn On The River recently and absolutely loved it. We usually stay in a hotel but this lovely bed and breakfast came highly recommended to us by a friend so we decided to give it a shot and are so glad we did.The moment we arrived and were met by two friendly dogs and the owner Pam, we knew we were going to immensely enjoy our stay. Pam is very personable and accommodating, she went out of her way to see to it that we had everything we needed and that our dietary requests were honored (one of us is gluten sensitive). The location is great (overlooks the river), the

Omg!!! the included breakfast was over the top delicious and the food and drinks in snyders tavern were an unexpected surprise~also delicious. we've stayed at this b&b many times over the years but never felt so connected with the innkeeper and staff as we did this visit. and pamela is a wonderful humanitarian and local leader when helping those in her community, especially during the horrendous snowstorm we had this year. may god bless her and all her efforts to hugely impact the lives of those in her community who benefit from her generosity.

The food was not great but everything else was fantastic, so I'm giving them a 4. The food arrived cold but they reheated it. They were still trying to figure out how to get the food from the kitchen at the hotel down to the restaurant while still hot. Hopefully they have a solution for this now. The servers were really nice and very accommodating of our group of 7 that included 3 kids. The best part was a fire pit outside by the river and a grassy area. The kids ran around and the adults drank wine and met other hotel guests. A very talented guy was playing guitar and singing. It was a very

I will definitely be back here. Pam has a passion for her business and it shows. The first thing that she asked me was what did I want out of my experience . I told her quiet and solitude. She then asked me how she could pamper me during my visit. I was left alone when I needed it, and pampered when I needed it. I also had great conversation when I needed it.
The best thing was her fabulous cooking. The breakfasts were great and they have a restaurant and full bar open Thursday-Sunday nights. She is also the chef for this. Everyone I talked to said their meal was wonderful.
I highly recommend Inn

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

Inn on the River in Glen Rose , TX has taken advantage of the closure due to the pandemic and renovated this historic landmark. You must come by and
meet the newest member of Inn on the River...Snyder's Tavern.
You will experience amazing libations and gourmet cuisine with fresh made sauces that add to each meal. The detail given to each entrée is important to them and you will find a wide variety to the menu that will also accommodates special dietary needs.
The 20 plus rooms are comfy with featherbed toppers to each bed. The decorated to period rooms are cozy and make this historic inn

This is a perfect getaway. If your a local or passing through, the Snyder's Tavern has amazing food. Simple menu but hard not to order everything on it. Ericka was really on top of things. The Inn has an ambiance that calms your soul. The grounds overlook the river. I came across duck, armadillos, cranes, and various birds.
The owners were so welcoming and really go out of the way to make you feel at home. Anything we needed such as wine glasses, ice, you name it, they were happy to oblige.
A very clean, friendly, and relaxing environment!!!
Thank you Pam and Scott!

Stayed here on a business trip and loved it. Beautiful 100 year old house with a gorgeous view of the river. Glen rose is a great little town and this is just a few miles from fossil rim park.
The new owner is very nice and shared great history of the house. The owner has a wonderful lab who is sweet as can be.
Highly recommend this place and we will be back.

If you're looking for a place to go and spend a relaxing weekend, I can't recommend this place enough. They take care of everything and the whole staff is genuinely interested in making sure your stay in this adorable town is everything you want it to be. Even their dog is great! The owners are so personable and fun. The breakfast is delicious and exactly what you need to get your day going strong. If they have their salsa verde, make sure you get some. It's sooooo good.
The rooms are adorable. The bed was super comfortable. Breakfast is about the only thing that got me out of

I've stayed at the Inn on the River several times for corporate retreats. The Inn itself is just lovely. The rooms are all comfortable, and the beds are great. Being right on the river lends itself to really nice meeting space. In the evenings you can sit outside on the patio with a fire going and just listen to the water. Also, surely a romantic setting. But honestly the hospitality is what keeps us coming back (and the wonderful food by Chef Lupe!). Mike and Lori pour their hearts into delivering the loveliest experience for their guests and it shows, every minute. Whether you are

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
