Everything about Corton Lodge exceeded our expectations! The venue was beautiful, affordable, and worth every penny. Ryan and Aimee was incredibly professional, kind, and accommodating their positive attitude made the entire planning process stress-free. You can really tell they care about making each couple’s day special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Corton Lodge to anyone planning their wedding in West Virginia.

The Corton Lodge is a lovely venue and the owner, Ryan, is very helpful and willing to meet every need you may have. It was a dream come true. The venue is very roomy and the property is much bigger than it seems from the road. If you're on the line as to whether or not just give them a call and make a visit. You won’t regret it!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
