I am totally disappointed with this venue. Where do I start the contract is not clear at all…read more Communication with employees is horrible. The person that wrote mu contract had no answer to non of the questions asked and never gets back with with answers there is no organization at all. They make you use all there security services and bar service which is super expensive. The employees to top it off are not friendly at all. I regret picking this place I don't recommend it.

We stayed at the main house on the creek next to Alexander's Restaurant …read more The house is beautiful. We loved our rooms and the view of the creek. The young lady working the front --Janai--was so helpful and kind. An amazing asset to their organization. We discovered Alexander's has the best bread pudding that my friend and I had ever had. My only complaint is breakfast was not at the house. I was looking forward to the continued ambiance of the house.

The clawed tub is very charming that will whisk you away back in time. You'll definitely get a great night's sleep on the bed because it is very comfortable. The sheets are made of unmatched quality are fit for a king and queen. We liked the sheets so much we actually bought a set for our king sized bed at home. We've had the pleasure of meeting Jason, Katie, and Neil the owner and they've made us feel like family while here. When you stay here you definitely have to check out the Shed restaurant and Alexander's. The food at the Shed is exceptional we did the sampler plate, burgers, and cheese curds. They were great. You'll also want to eat at Alexander's on the property at the Inn as the food is phenomenal. We did the beef tenderloin and it was cooked to perfection along with the crab cakes and autumn bread pudding! If you're not staying at the Inn on the Creek you're missing out. Breakfast in the morning was stellar as well the atmosphere and people have been great. We definitely tip our hats off to all of the staff we've seen, and those working behind the scenes. You're taste buds will thank you once you eat at The Shed and Alexander's as their food is to die for! If you've haven't booked a stay here you will be disappointed if you go anywhere else. The Inn on the Creek truly is a hidden gem that you're going to love!!! From all of us at Texas Blue Courage Company LLC thank you for such amazing hospitality! Respectfully, Justin and Sheila Kmiec

You can order from a limited menu at the outdoor bar, or go inside for the full menu. I asked the bartender about the non-beer drinks they have, and he told me about the short list of options. I opted for the siren seltzer, which he said tastes exactly like a strawberry White Claw. It unfortunately tasted very bitter and did not taste like one at all. My friend who is very familiar with White Claws tried it and confirmed my findings.

He also loves the TX BBQ chicken pizza and says it never disappoints. This time I got the margherita pizza and added grilled chicken, and it was absolutely delicious. The food overall was really good and the service was friendly and attentive. The only reason for the slightly lower rating is that several menu items were already sold out when we visited. Other than that, we had a great experience and would definitely come back. They have a nice patio here

The place was clean and just the right size for my wife and I. Being city folks you forget how dark it is out in the country at nights. It was nice. We signed up for these adventures to make the weekend even more fun: 1. Feed baby kangaroo(Bodhi). This was about a 30 minute session where we got to feed him a bottle and kibble. It really was an amazing experience. 2. Bucket of food and self guided feeding of animals. We walked the property and hid to feed so many animals. All of the animals were friendly toward people. They were all very good motivated. We encountered a giraffe, donkeys, zebras, horses, cows, pigs, dwarf steers, camels, emu, deer, buffalo and more. The animals were often trying to bully their way to the front of the line. The cow Oreo who has not skipped a meal was always front of the line. 3. Afternoon safari ride in ATV. This was a fun ride around the property. Did not see any new animals but had a great time. The cows out at pasture were thrilled to be fed. 4. Giraffe encounter and meal. This was a little expensive but I would spend it again. The giraffes were super friendly and personable. We wanted to take them home because they were so much fun. The guide, experience and never felt rushed made this worth it. Our guide was top notch. I think her name was Jackie but could be wrong.

Also unimportant but a "little thing" would be better soaps and shampoo. "Eco soap" isn't super exciting. Really nice grounds though.
