Clink on the Creek- Creekside DT Belton- Pet Friendly
Take a step back into the late 1800s while enjoying comfortable, modern accommodations with this historic home. Originally used as the first Bell County Jail offering spectacular views of Nolan Creek and direct creek access! Constructed in 1873 and featuring the original jail bar windows, the home was built out of solid limestone bricks and still has exposed limestone throughout the home. We have all that you will need for a cozy getaway in the heart of Downtown Belton. At almost 2500 square feet you will have plenty of room to make yourself right at home. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs with 1 king, 1 queen and 2 sets of bunk beds. There is also a full-size desk with office chair in the guest bedroom that overlooks the creek. There is one full bathroom upstairs with a tub which is located in the master and another full bathroom located on the first floor with a shower. This home offers direct access to Nolan Creek, a large covered deck and covered balcony overlooking your private backyard oasis. Located directly across the creek from Yettie Polk Park which features a 3-mile paved walking trail, splash pad, playgrounds, and basketball courts. Permit# 23-10059
Wonderful stay. Amazing location. Walk to the square for food, drinks. River could not have been better. Cool, shallow. Great history in the building and town.Attended graduations at Baylor Waco and Round Rock Stoney Point High. Convenient for both.
VERY comfortable. The property was well stocked and within walking distance to some fun eating establishments. The backyard has multiple levels for you and your guests (family) to enjoy some quick time relaxing and watching the water roll by, then have a nice BBQ dinner at the table for 6 on the outside kitchen level. All while others walk down to the creek looking for crawdads.We enjoyed the unique opportunity to stay in a historical property. We will definitely be back!
A fabulous place with the most excellent hosts weâve ever interacted with! The house itself is completely usable and every single amenity is included: all kinds of pots, pans, differently sized plates and cups and glasses, foil and parchment paper-it lacks absolutely nothing! Add to that the historic nature of the house-so fun to stay in the old jail and to be able to see evidence of it. The patios are excellent and the creek is right out back; a couple of blocks from the front of the house are coffee shops (one with incredible tacos) and stores. Easy drive to Chalk Ridge Falls and Lake Belton. This is a one of a kind property, and the responsiveness of the hosts is out of this world. Ten out of ten for everything about our stay!
The Clink on the Creek is a fun historical place to stay. Walking distance to some of Beltonâs best spots and everything youâd need to have a great time- cornhole, adult sized swing, fires pit and grills and a fully stocked kitchen. I expect we will be back.
Three family women on a girlâs trip. Was perfect. Great location- can walk to coffee shop and restaurants. The deck overlooking the creek was wonderful - we spent most of our time there. Charming house. We are already talking about returning. Thank you so much.
Loved the history of the house/jail. The location right on the water and just a blocks off downtown. Found this place by accident as we were looking for Salado stay. This was such a great set up for a girl trip and brought us to Belton that we never would've stopped at. We lucked into the B4 Festival going on and found The Gin. It was a perfect all around trip. And, I love the old floors, the creaking...the sounds. Awesome for full around experience. Only wish we had more downtime scheduled into our trip to fully use the porches.
My small suggestions would be to have at least 1 full length mirror somewhere. The place is huge and there are plenty of place to hang a mirror. Wish the bunk beds had full set of sheets and not just the fitted. It just wasn't as comfy without all the sheets. And leave blankets in the closet....we had to take from another bed.
History recap would've been a cool addition to the dinning room table.
I'm already checking out the calendar for another stay!!!
We absolutely loved it here. Beautiful and peaceful even though it is blocks from downtown Belton. It river was clean and clear. We enjoyed sitting on the back porch watching the ducks and the river.
Perfect hideaway. With history
Our two families of four had a very laid back & fun stay! The house has everything you need but the creek has even more to offer. The kids were able to wade & tube on their own without having the adults hovering over them. We caught fish off the bank & wading in the creek. Grilled out & stayed in our comfy clothes! Kids had a blast & so did the adults!
This was a fun quirky old jail turned into a rental property that was tons of fun. The host was quick to reply and very kind. Would definitely stay here again!
Gorgeous property with fantastic hosts! Were thankful our trip was so easy. We had plenty of space and lots to do in the area. Would enjoy staying here again in the future.
Loved the history of the jailhouse and Belton was a lot of fun. Lovely view of Nolan Creek from the back of the house. Stairs can be a bit of a challenge for seniors but we managed. And the windows in the bedrooms really need blackout curtains since there is a lot of outside light at night. Host was very responsive to a couple of concerns/questions. Definitely recommend this property.
We booked this stay so we could observe and film the Total Eclipse. It is a wonderful historic home with the bonus of having Nolan Creek behind the house. Our family was able to meet us there and enjoy the house, visiting and the Eclipse. If we have a reason to get back to Belton we would definitely book this place. The hosts made it very easy and provided a beautiful venue.
This place was perfect for a quiet getaway. My family and I enjoyed ourselves outside on the back patio just listening to the rustling of the creek water and watching the ducks swim. The kitchen and bathrooms were well equipped with everyday essentials. The sleeping quarters are spacious and comfy. We were in walking distance to restaurants. We shall stay again when we are in Belton. Thanks for a great weekend.
