We enjoyed a pleasant escape to the Tiny House B&B. Ann is an absolute delightful hostess, so hospitable and welcoming. Having a hot breakfast of choice delivered to the door, complete with fresh fruits and veggies really rounds out the experience. The grounds are gorgeous, and she welcomes her guests to stroll and enjoy the farm. Thank you so much Ann, we can't wait to carve out some time to return!
Our homeschool group’s event was here and the grounds and buildings are absolutely beautiful! Ms. Ann was so great to work with, so helpful, and she has such a passion for the incredible history of her family’s property circa 1600’s. The indoor spaces are beautifully appointed, with plenty of bathrooms and seating. The outdoor spaces are gorgeous! There’s the beautiful pond with pergola, and incredibly gorgeous landscaping. The bluest hydrangeas I’ve ever seen surround the pergola. There are herbs, native flowers, plants, gardens, and everything is beautifully kept. Not sure if Ms. Ann is a master gardener, but she should be. During lunch, I realized I forgot to grab paper plates, and Ms. Ann kindly gave us some to utilize. Everything was awesome! Our group is so excited to meet at Sinking Springs regularly.
The facility was beautiful, but the owner Anne was terrible to work with. She sat in on my baby shower the whole event time after she said she would "pop in and out", she sat and watched all of us the whole time. Made us very uncomfortable as if we were doing something wrong or were irresponsible. My shower was at 12pm and we had mimosas set up at the small bar, around 2pm Anne decided to touch our items and start putting the champagne under the bar, as if to say "were cut off". Then when one of my guests walked over to make a mimosa Anne ran over to the bar and tried saying "no more alcohol". Mind you, the contract never states "no alcohol" nor was it discussed between Anne and myself to not have any alcohol. I explained that to her and that there are no signs posted saying "no alcohol" on the property and it was never discussed. She proceeded to tell false lies that "she only said Mimosas were okay", "drinking was to stop after lunch", "there's no alcohol in this facility", "alcohol was only to be used for a toast", none of those conversations happened and even after explaining that to her she continued to argue with myself and my mother and insulted us by saying "see what alcohol does", when neither of us had been drinking. This issue is people had spent money on said alcohol and she was trying to tell us we suddenly couldn't drink said purchased items. She continued to argue with me and my mother for several minutes and insult us and our guests. Eventually someone got her to disperse but my baby shower was basically ruin at that moment due to her. Therefore, I don't recommend using this facility.
Just had a wonderful weekend at the farm. Ann was a wonderful host and her delicious breakfasts delivered to the cottage door were an added bonus! The farm is amazing and we enjoyed walking the grounds while there. So beautiful and peaceful. The tiny cottage was the perfect place to stay and Chesapeake City and many other towns just a short drive away. We highly recommend it and will look forward to a return visit. The Henrys
We absolutely love staying at the tiny house cabin on sinking springs herb farm. Ann Stubbs is a wonderful hostess. The warm breakfast delivered to the adorable little porch each morning is such a treat! The gardens and paths to explore on the property make it so very special too. Thanks so much for a another terrific visit to our favorite tiny house right near beautiful Chesapeake city. We will be back soon !
Beware of this venue. Yes it may seem nice on the outside, but the owner Ann is completely crazy. Friends of mine had their wedding there a few days ago and what they signed up for is not what they got. When they went and did the finale walk through they were told that the pond they were going to get married on was drained and they can use the other one. Which was a lot further from the venue and not as much space as the other. Than once in in side the owner had invited a lot of her own personal family members to the wedding. They were inside the venue with the wedding party. Taking up limited table space and taking trays of food out for them self with out asking. When confronted they said this is their venue and so its their food. They did the same with the bar. Taking full bottles of vodka and rum and putting it in their cars. They were asked to leave many times and we were told if we kept being ride to her family we would be asked to end the wedding and leave early. Then we were told we were rude because we were drunk. Now it was a 1:30pm wedding. Were werent drunk. This was only 3 pm. They paid for the venue until 8pm, but at 7pm Ann closed the bar and said we had to leave. That there was to many people and we were drinking and had to leave. By 7 pm there were maybe 30 people there if that. All of us had DD and a limo. Than as she is arguing that we have to leave her family started taking the wedding cake. And let's not forget that when the bride and groom where trying to take photos she was in most of them. She was asked many times by the photographer to move out of the shot. Now I understand the owner being on the property but she was very ride and oht of line. Of course they staff and bartenders were offers food, cake and drinks, but to have your family come and take big trays of food was rude. This place is cheap because no one wants to work with her. Please don't use this place. There are plenty of venues with this same setting.
Unless you want the owner wandering around your event the whole time policing it, I'd suggest you use another event venue. While nothing in the contract stated limited or no alcohol, she stood by where the tea, lemonade, and mimosas were to stop guest from making a mimosa and made a scene in the middle of the event in front of everyone because they were. Very unprofessional.
