One of few places to stay in Bellaire

The Garden room had very comfortable bed and pillows, and nice towels, a TV and small Fridge. View of river, with deck was nice. The building is old...older than it looks in pictures. Some of the furnishing in room looked pretty garage sale like. Room is small. Toilet is small and low. 2 sinks were nice, and standup shower, no bath. One thing that bothered me is that there was no sheet to protect touch from quilt.

Stone Waters Inn is unique and special. Like no other place we have ever stayed. The people who host the inn live on the premises and do a great job taking care of the people who stay there. We enjoyed the campfire on the river in the evening before walking down the street to eat a late supper at an upscale restaurant that was perfect end to a really nice stay.

Comfy, spacious stay with a great view.

I had a short stay, but it was wonderful. The staff that I interacted with were very helpful and friendly, despite some issues with me moving my booking around - they just were friendly and helped work it out. The room was clean and spacious. The view out the back was beautiful, and I had no issues with parking. 10/10

Stone waters for the win

We have stayed at Stone Water twice and loved it! The laid back and chill atmosphere and the beautiful scenery is breathtaking! We loved sitting in the hot tub on the balcony with the snow falling around us on this most recent trip! Previously we stayed and were able to bring our dog with us who really enjoyed playing in the river that runs behind the inn. We definitely recommend this to friends and family!

Beautiful setting on the intermediate river with plenty of Spots to sit outside and enjoy the view. Located at one end of the Main Street of Bellaire, easy walk to cute shops and restaurants. Extremely friendly staff on site. Quaint lobby with games and a pool table. Would be a wonderful place to stay with family. We were unfortunately there only on night in business.

never useing hotel.com again to book a room :(

I was treated rudly because I booked through hotel .com. it must not pay as much, also the room was doubled booked and I was moved the next morning to another less quality room. had dust and cobbn webs under the bed. I asked for change to get a pop from machine that did not take dollars. it was 12:30 at night and I was told that "if she knew what time it was when I called, she would have not come down and I needed to be quiet" even the guest that are regulars were rude to me and came and asked who we were when I was parked outside in the driveway. I guess I wont book through hotel .com for any hotels moving forward. I don't want to be treated like crap because I saved a few bucks, the money saved was not worth the treatment I received.

Check in

It was strange having to use a phone to get service rather than having someone at the desk. Had to wait 10 minutes for someone to show up to check us in, then they had our reservation date for the next day, so we didn't get the room we paid for. We were given accommodations just not what we wanted.

Stayed one night while traveling for business. Their season was not yet in full swing so there were a few issues that I'm sure they will be staffed for as Spring moves to Summer. Had a lovely balcony overlooking the river, but it was not warm enough to enjoy it.
