Customer Accolades

"We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude and thanks to all the staff at Sanford House on our recent stay. The accommodations, the food, the ambiance, and the "down home" but professional attitude of the staff were absolutely fantastic. We are extolling kudos and accolades of Sanford House to all the folks here in little ol' Johnson City. It was a most memorable occasion.

P.S. We promise not to tell our cardiologist about the bread pudding.

"Whew!! We are back in Florida now and I was sorry we left before you came in yesterday as I really wanted to thank you, Ken and all the staff for the wonderful event for Chris' graduation. It truly could not have gone better and I wanted to let you know how big a part you played in creating this lifelong memory. Everybody had a fantastic time and so many people commented on the wonderful surroundings and absolutely delicious food!! (In fact, would you please ask chef for the brisket recipe for me? That was the best brisket I have personally ever had!!) We have two daughters and a son between us and know that weddings will be a part of our futures......at least two in Texas so Sandford House goes to the top of the list and your professionalism was a big part of that! Thank you again so much for all of your effort and goodwill. You made a difference and I hope you feel appreciated. Please feel free to use me as a reference for the Inn and I hope to work with you in the future for another event!”

“We appreciated the different venue and the space we had, but most of all the general ambience and overall friendliness and professionalism of all the people at The Sanford House. For me, the ‘icing on the cake’ was the quality of the cuisine which was frankly superb.”

"Tim and Melissa fell in love in your garden and one year later they were married there…We were able to have the Rehearsal Dinner on Friday evening in a fun and colorful flamingo atmosphere with delicious Mexican food that everyone raved about…then the grounds were transformed into the most magical wedding site for a wedding ceremony and reception that was both enchanting and perfectly executed. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all you did to make our dreams a reality.”
- Carol and Jerry Severson

“Everything, including the impeccable food service, beautiful landscape, outdoor lighting and skillfully coordinated timing, contributed to the ambiance and enjoyment of our guests…we would put you up against the Mansion any day! You are the best kept secret in the Metroplex.”
- Kathy Amparan

“Your staff graciously made excellent recommendations for dinner, including maps, and was invaluable to us in many ways. They were the definition of Southern Hospitality…I have already recommended The Sanford House to others and will continue to do so. You can be assured that when we travel to the area again, we will definitely visit your wonderful inn.”
