    A short guide to San Marcos

    Between Austin and San Antonio, San Marcos knows how to whoop it up. Locals often point to Texas State University as party central, but geography plays a role in the town’s reputation. Each summer, heat-weary Texans go tubing at the San Marcos River, known for its constant 72-degree waters. San Marcos is also known for its outlet malls, which are among the largest shopping complexes in America.

    The hotel staff were great, and the location was convenient. My room was in an old rock house separate from the main building, and I think I would have preferred being in the main house. The room was nice, and clean - but the pipes were loud and neighbor noises were loud (and I had quiet neighbors!). The breakfast was awesome - I had to leave early […] and they accommodated me with an early breakfast! All three breakfasts I ate there were yummy! The location was convenient to campus (which I needed), there was a coffee shop a block away, and lots of places to eat in downtown San Marcos. Read more

    I love staying here...the owners are very accomodating. I had to leave super early for a meeting and would miss breakfast, but they made me some muffins for the road the night before! Love that all the rooms are styled differently. Only complaint - hot water seems to take a LONG time to get hot! The grounds are beautiful too, especially love the sitting […] garden with the fountains and bamboo in the back. Will be back!!! Read more

    I enjoyed my stay at CRI. I didn't see the innkeepers much due to my hours, but when I did they seemed nice. My room was facing the busy street, and the street noise bothered me all night. The price was good, comprable to local hotels. The king size bed was very comfortable and my back was happy the next day! I will return soon.

    I had booked at the last minute and arrived Late. I was able to get directions from the hospital to the property from the innkeeper at 11pm that were not only accurate, but comprehensive enough that the ditz who gets lost backing out of her own driveway arrived without a wrong turn. The property was lovely. My room, at the front of the Main House was […] huge, well decorated with functional antiques, and spotless. I adore the mattress. This is the first time I've ever slept in a strange bed and not woken with a backache! Breakfast was ready when ordered and delicious. A fantastic stay in a really neat place with good people to take care of me. I'm excited to have found the Crystal River because this was the first of what may for me be regular business trips to the area. I intend to go back, and suggest you try it too! Read more
