Here are just a few of the guest comments which lead to this award:

"There are not words in the English vocabulary to describe the experience my husband and I became a part of when we chose South Court Inn. Yet I will try... The first impression was an instant bond when Mr. Potts opened the grand door and welcomed us!!!!

The house was amazing, the past brought to life right before our eyes!!! We toured the house with Mr. Potts filling us with history and bringing us right into the past almost!!! Oh My!!! don't let me forget the exquisite breakfast, I have never been to France but I now have a pretty good idea what it is like in a fancy restraint or hotel!!! He preformed the wedding for us and had I looked over the whole world I would not have found a better experience!!! The words he used were of the finest choice, the pictures, flowers, video, cake and , well....EVERYTHING!!!! the room was just great, it was grand it was perfect!!!! GREAT!!! almost enchanted. I can't give u the words YOU!!! must see this for yourself!!! experience a moment in time!!! live as they did in the 1800's feel it, and you will return I am sure of it!"

"This was our first time at a B&B, and it was the most important. We eloped with one of the B&B's elopement packages. We couldn't have asked for anything more. The Inn was beautiful both inside and out. Our ceremony was beautiful, and Mr. Pott's not only provided the bouquet, cake and champagne glasses to toast, he took pictures and video of the entire thing. Thank you so much. Our room was also wonderful, it was like sleeping on a cloud."

"A Perfect Stay in Luray! We had an beautiful wedding ceremony at the South Court Inn, with the classic house and gorgeous landscaping as a backdrop in every photo! It was the summer time, so everything was lush and green and in bloom. I've never been one for extravagance, so the idea of having a bride-zilla wedding made me look around for reasonable alternatives.

When it looked like my only options were going to court, or flying to Vegas, South Court Inn stepped in! Tom and Anita are lovely people who put us at complete ease at a time that could have otherwise been nerve wracking, and that was much appreciated.

Everything was all set up, from a bouquet to corsages for the guests, to picture perfect wedding backdrops, to the cake and the service! Even though we used the elopement package, we were able to have guests so I brought my family along for the experience. And believe me, they were so relieved when they found out I wasn't getting married in court!

We stayed one night in the two story cabin, which is behind the house. It has its own backyard (huge), a hot tub, a living room, TVs on both levels, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom, so it really feels like a little home away from home. I could see a longer stay there being completely comfortable for more than two people, especially if you're checking out all the sites in Luray. I had seen the sites before, and my husband isn't very outdoorsy so we spent our time cozied up in the cabin. We had a lovely breakfast at the Inn and left rested, relaxed and happily married! "
