We stayed in the Frio Room, which was very nice and pleasant, it 's a beautiful cottage room with all the amenities, the bathroom is great, large and very comfortable. Cathy and Mike Dillon, the owners, are a wonderful couple and they are so accommodating. The staff is friendly and very eager to make our stay there memorable. The house... more

We booked a room at the Inn because family had stayed there and liked the Inn a lot. We got a nice upgrade at no extra charge when our room was not cleaned on time (due to the guests who lingered) and had a suite, perfect for two traveling lady friends! The owners (Cathy and Mike Dillon) couldn't have been... more

My daughter and I discovered the Crystal River Inn four years ago when we attended the Mother/Daughter Mystery weekend. We loved the inn and the mystery weekend so much that we have made it our annual "getaway". The staff are very accomodating, friendly and helpful. The inn has such a comfortable, homey feeling that you can't help but relax. We... more

My new husband and I picked the Crystal River Inn, by chance, just by looking on-line. It was a very beautiful setting and Cathy, Tracey and all of the staff were wonderful. We stayed in "The Blanco Suite" and breakfast in bed the next morning was AWESOME!! We live about 3 hours from here and they had set everything up... more

My husband and I stayed last Thursday night in the Medina and enjoyed every minute! Miss Tracey and all the staff were excellent hosts. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast was delicious. When we came 'home' Thursday night the most magnificent aroma filled the house. Miss Tracey said it was Cranberry Brickle Bread. This was part of our... more

First of all, all guests should know that West Hopkins street is also Texas State Highway 80 and be prepared for highway noise continually from the rooms at the front of the house facing the street. Also the property is kind of close to the train tracks with trains at 10:20 p.m., 11:40 a.m., 12:50 a.m, and then we finally... more

We stayed at the Crystal River Inn for 1 night in September 2008. Firstly, I should thank the owners for their integrity in keeping our room for us even though they were inundated with requests for rooms from evacuees from Hurricane Ike. Given that we'd already been granted dispensation on their usual 2-night minimum weekend stay policy, their honesty in... more

My cousin and I planned a "gal weekend" in San Marcos and found this B & B to stay at. While it was clean, the atmosphere of the grounds (they hold wedding here?!?!) and access to the rooms through the awkward parking lot left a lot to be desired. This would be a lovely location had it been in a... more

Management response from

We've just bought the big old house next door to the inn, and work daily on the challenges of remodeling it. Among those challenges was the need to combine the backs of the two buildings so that guests can conveniently move back and forth between them. Yes, we're on a major street so everything is oriented to the rear of...

Went for a girls night out and shopping the next day at the San Marcos Outlets. WOW!!! This place rocks. FABULOUS service and even more FABULOUS FOOD. I kid you not - the food is rediculously off the charts. The owner was amazing and accommodating. We fell in love with her. My friend plans on marrying their now. She loved... more

I first discovered this B&B in July of 2007 - needed to get away for a long weekend and wanted to be centrally located between San Antonio and Austin. I received the utmost attention and care at a time when rest was really welcomed. I was totally surprised when I discovered the place was bustiling with young college girls who... more
