Inn On Lake Granbury

My brother and his wife were married here. The venue is beautiful and service was great. Neat place tucked away behind the Square. Very neatly maintained place.

Wonderful wine dinner/​cooking demonstration prepared by Chef Gerard Thompson from Rough Creek Lodge and Resort.
Wines presented by Barron Beltz from Folio Fine Wine Partners.

Grilled Quail with Sherry Maple Glaze/​Poblano Pepper Cheddar Cheese Grits paired with Susan Balbo Signature Barrel Fermented Torrontes

Each dish was prepared while the guests observed. A camera was placed above the chef to allow everyone to see what was happening. Every dish was perfection. and the wine pairings spot on.
The Inn is the perfect location for such an event. The banquet/​meeting room over looks the lake. The grounds around the Inn are immaculate and the service is 5 star. Chef Gerard was an amazing teacher and chef. (And he shared his recipes with us) Barron Beltz did a great job explaining where each wine came from, the history of the winery and the families that produce the wines. This was truly an amazing evening. We can’t wait to return for the next dinner

This is an amazing place to stay. The rooms are beautiful and clean. The food and service were both excellent. The owners/​keepers Jim and Cathy were very friendly. Would highly recommend this B&B.

Absolutely amazing place to stay! They have thought of everything to make this a perfect getaway! The view is stunning and you can walk two blocks and be in the middle of the square. In-​room coffee maker, robes and slippers, and heated bathroom floors, oh my! Perfect romantic getaway to celebrate our anniversary! We will be back for sure!

This is one of the loveliest places you will ever find! Everything you could want in a quiet getaway can be found here. The rooms are spotless, nicely decorated, and charming in every way. The steam shower and jetted tub are icing on the cake! Beautiful views, stunning landscaped grounds, and proximity to downtown Granbury made this a perfect getaway for us. We will definitely be back for much needed couple time.

Kathy could have not written a better review. The event coordinator said they host executive retreats, I can see why. Absolutely top notch. Will be back. Wonderful place.

Stayed here with my fiancé upon recommendation by a local. What a wonderful place! So pretty and picturesque. Great property. Very clean and well maintained. Great views of the lake. Super comfortable room with gorgeous bathroom. The historic town square is a reasonable distance away for people who like to walk through pretty and old neighborhoods and once you get there there’s shopping and food. Get a mocha granita at the Coffee Grinder!

Great service and facility
We enjoyed the Rio Brazos room

The Inn on Lake Granbury is a real Texas treasure! Close enough to the DFW area, yet far enough away for a relaxing retreat in the «country», gracious owners/​innkeepers Jim Leitch & Cathy Casey, and staffer extraordinaire Deborah R. treated our large group like VIPs, granting our every wish during our three night stay in June.
Our group’s accommodations were divided between guest homes/​suites/​rooms, in the Lake House, the Pool House, and the Main House. I visited nearly every room on property, and to my delight, discovered «Old world meets Texas Traditional» décor, with each room having its own distinct personality. Besides staying in a room that looked like it was torn from the pages of a Southern Living magazine, sleeping on the Inn’s beds were like sleeping on a cloud mattress spun from angel’s hair.
The Inn on Lake Granbury has the most delicious hot breakfast I’ve ever had at a B &B, with menu items like: Pineapple Stuffed French Toast, Peach Enchiladas, Southwestern Hominy, cheese and green chili grits, along with more traditional fare such as: scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, fresh mixed fruit, yogurt, and a variety of juices. The nightly «Happy Hour» is equally as impressive, with more than just chips and salsa. One night, we enjoyed spicy asparagus spears, sausage pinwheels, and goat cheese topped with spiced pecans and wild honey, accompanied by a variety of wines and soft drinks. I told Innkeeper Cathy that they should publish an Inn cookbook, and even boldly asked Deborah for a few recipes.
The Inn on Lake Granbury’s grounds are very well cared for, with spectacular views of Lake Granbury and crushed gravel paths traversing through lush landscaped lawns and past flowerbeds. A tree swing, Adirondack chairs, and stone benches welcome you to spend time contemplating the beauty of nature that’s all around the property. A salt water swimming pool with its cascading waterfall creates a wonderful oasis, with a sparkling clean restroom and fresh pool towels only steps away.
Last but not least, especially to women who may not have packed everything they need on vacation, the toiletries provided by the innkeepers aren’t your run-​of-​the-​mill stuff. Rather, they provide the upscale Cali Cosmetics «Tarocco» line of blood orange products — shampoo, conditioner, bath gel, bar soaps, and moisturizer that smell heavenly.
Should you want to venture off the property, Granbury’s historic downtown square is an easy walk from the Inn, and offers lots of shopping, food, and entertainment.
So, whether you are looking for a place to hold a family reunion and need the Inn’s Lake House with its patios, scenic views of the lake, and ample seating to entertain a large group, or you are looking for a suite or room to celebrate an anniversary or honeymoon — or maybe just want a weekend respite from the daily rat race — you will be glad you decided to plan your stay at the Inn on Lake Granbury.

This place is amazing! Not only is the Inn itself gorgeous, but the staff are top-​notch and the service is incredible. We just had a group outing there with 16 of us, and Deborah went way out of her way to help us organize and plan our whole weekend out there. The Lake House was amazing, as were all of the accommodations. Breakfast was as good as it gets, and their bacon was perfect. The Inn On Lake Granbury is a true gem, and we’ll certainly be back some day.

What a great place to have some time off from sub-​urban-​life. Our suite was beyond expectation. We had such a great time. The grounds are beautiful, amenities are luxurious and the beds are comfortable. We had a great time. Jim and Kathy are awesome!
And the bread pudding is amazing! Have a great time. I know we did!

My husband I stayed at the Inn on Lake Granbury and just knew it was where we wanted to get married, so 8 months later we tied the knot there.
We couldn’t have picked a better location for our wedding in the Dallas /​Fort Worth area. Cathy and Trish were amazing at coordinating everything for our 100 wedding guests for our April wedding. We are still receiving amazing feedback on how wonderful the grounds, food, and location was from friends and family who attended.
The Inn prepared the most amazing food for our reception and served the most amazing breakfast that our guests had to get recipes. As for their Southwestern style grits! I was born and raised in Texas and never liked grits until I had Cathy’s … same went for many of our family who stayed at the Inn.
The hospitality was amazing. The Inn specializes in getting the details right from arranging massages for me and my bridesmaids there on the grounds. Coordinating sitters for the children the night of the Rehearsal Dinner and Wedding Reception — we had 12 children there between the ages of 2 — 9 yrs old! We were even able to have champagne delivered to our room with a fresh fruit and cheese tray for us to snack on while we were getting ready the day of the wedding. They even brought us a breakfast tray so that we wouldn’t run into my groom the day of the wedding!
The Inn pretty much was a one stop shop for everything for our wedding. From the set up to the tear down of the ceremony site and reception tables/​chairs — we never had to worry about a thing. We were able to relaxed and enjoy visiting with our families and never had to worry about whether the caterer was running late, if the flowers for the ceremony were up or the centerpieces were in place, if the cake had arrived or if the music, lights, or sound system were operating. If the valet attendants were there or if the bar was set up … they took care of it all!
Cathy and Trish took all the stress out of our day (and I know it wasn’t easy or stress free for them getting it all together, but you never heard them complain or saw them stop smiling). All we had to do was focus on getting ready and showing up.
Also the professionals Jim and Cathy recommended who provided the carriage ride that we made our escape in at end of our wedding, the hair stylists and make up artists who came to the Inn, and the bakery … none of them could have been any nicer. They were all outstanding!
Even when many of our guests returned the next morning to say good-​bye during breakfast the Inn was able to accommodate and feed them and never complained about it. Our guests just enjoyed themselves there so much that they just wanted to linger as long as they could because the Inn made the whole weekend magical.
From the history of the house, to the beautifully landscaped grounds right on the lake — to just being 3 blocks from all the amazing shopping /​entertainment /​restaurants on Granbury Square, Jim & Cathy couldn’t have picked a more lovely location to have their Inn — or better place to throw a wedding where we were able to celebrate with our family and friends.
Jim and Cathy also have done a beautiful job with the décor, linens, and layout of their rooms. We were able to tour the Inn during one of our wedding consultations and each room has plush bedding, wonderful baths, and are all so comfortable, based on the feedback we received from our family who stayed at the Inn — with free wifi!
The accommodations are well worth the price and value in the customer service is unmatched by any B&B I’ve ever experienced in my travels around the world. I can’t believe the best of the best is here in my own backyard.
Many of our guests are talking about returning to Granbury on their own and staying at the Inn on Lake Granbury after what they experienced on our wedding weekend. Jim, Cathy, Trish — y’all did not just good — but GREAT!
Thank you SO much! You have folks in all four corners of the US (from Alaska, Hawaii, Chicago, AZ, Indiana, Atlanta, and NY) all talking about you and spreading the word about the best little B&B in Granbury! Be prepared for a number of return visits!
Room Tip: Not a single bad room — all well worth the price!

I thought this place was absolutely adorable and wanted to have our wedding here, but the owners took over a month to get us our quote and then decided after numerous phone calls from us to say, that the wedding would cost double our budget and since we had concerns and wanted to somehow bring the price down they decided to tell us, «I don’t think we’ll be able to do your wedding.» They were afraid our friends and family would mess up their B&B, which is ridiculous, it’s not like we are young kids, the guests would have been 30 or older. It just irritates me that she couldn’t tell us to begin with that she wasn’t going to do it instead of leading us on for over a month! Plus I’ve known a couple of people who have stayed there and they told me that the owners had a very snooty/​snobby attitude towards their B&B. We finally found an amazing place in costa rica that we are going to have our wedding and I am a true believer that things happen for a reason!
Reply to owner comment:
First of all, at the time we were not looking for a beach wedding, but an awesome place in the area where we live, to get married with many family and friends. Second, the roasted whole pig we were speaking of could have easily been brought in by one of our bbq restaurant clientele along with a keg, but there was no discussion over this because you flat out said that you wouldn’t be able to do our wedding after a whole month of us waiting, which means that we couldn’t try to get the amount down. And third, just as your reply took a whole year, the issue was the fact that you couldn’t let us know in the first place that you were unable to do our wedding when we had already discussed the budget. Any of the other venues we looked at, were able to give us a quote within a few days, so it seems rather there was a lack of competence. And yes we did end up getting married, just last week and it was wonderful! Thank you Villa Cascada in Costa Rica whom were very attentive to our every need and desire.
