Every day, she diligently works to ensure her guests get exactly what they desire out of their stay. Whether you are looking for a social experience with others, or a quiet, uninterrupted getaway, Rosalie's goal is to create a personal oasis for you. Focused on ultimate privacy, excellent accommodations, and deliciously memorable breakfasts, Rosalie’s Annville Inn consistently earns five-star reviews across all categories.
The History of Annville Inn Bed & Breakfast
Annville Inn Bed & Breakfast was founded by Rosalie George with help from her husband, Craig, in 2005. The story begins much, much earlier, however. Rosalie is an original Washingtonian, who moved to Oklahoma and met Craig, a leading portrait photographer throughout the Southwest USA. They married and launched two portrait studios and other related businesses, which they ran for ten years until relocating back to Washington, DC.
There, Rosalie worked for a large organization, and Craig went full-time into what he had started doing in Oklahoma—nonprofit enterprises. He spent years at the Smithsonian Institution, helping to launch a museum—hemispheric in scope…the National Museum of the American Indian. Throughout their time in Oklahoma, Rosalie was very involved in decorating and design as well as hospitality. She took those skills back to Washington where, although running a large enterprise, she also supervised the design and decoration of the top three floors of an office tower and numerous other projects of similar scope.
During their last five years in DC, Rosalie and Craig started dreaming of opening “The Bed & Breakfast Different,” an enterprise that was more than the “typical” B&B, intended to include a great deal of public space, and a place that could be a destination unto itself.
Annville Inn Bed & Breakfast didn’t exist before Rosalie came along and built the business, designed the traffic flow of the rooms, decorated them, and put into force an impeccable business plan with only one focus: The best experience possible for her guests. Her reviews certainly indicate she has succeeded. Rosalie invites you to come experience her hospitality for yourself.
Experiences From Our Lovely Guests
- Warm hospitality. You’re a very special couple. It is quite evident of all the thought and effort you put into making sure your guests are well taken care of. We wish you many blessings and success.
- You are such special people and we are blessed to have met you. You are experts in your craft and have so many talents, too many to mention. Thank you seems insignificant, but…thank you. We are booking now for our next visit.
- We will never forget our incredible 1st wedding anniversary; we thoroughly enjoyed at the fabulous Annville Inn B&B. I’ve been to many B&B’s with my parents and Nanna, but Annville Inn is second to none, or as we say the “G.O.A.T.” (Greatest Of All Time). We’re only in our 20’s, but will be back again and again. In fact, we’re booked to come back at Christmas…we want to see how amazing it is here then, we’ve heard it’s like staying in the set of a Hallmark Christmas movie!
- It is so easy to see the love and devotion that the two of you have expressed at Annville Inn B&B. Your very own passion project. We are in awe of your artistic visions and talent. This place is a home, an experience, a mystery, and a solution to the problems of our stressful lives. Thank you for sharing it with us.
- In the 15 years Crystal and I have been traveling together, Annville Inn is one of the most beautiful places we’ve been to. Although this trip was filled with activities, we were still able to take in and enjoy many of the wonderful things your Inn has to offer. Aside from this glorious place and all of its grandeur, is Miss Rosalie, what a precious gem she is. Getting to meet and talk with her brought us more joy than you can possibly imagine. Our next visit will not come soon enough.
- Another wonderful LVC Parents’ Weekend at the most amazing and always spectacular Annville Inn. We are so happy to have found this place—highly recommended by our daughter’s professor.
- We had the best anniversary get away ever at Annville Inn B&B. The English Manor Suite was perfect, and we felt right at home. Every detail of your Inn is so beautiful. The grounds are stunning and we enjoyed exploring. Thank you for a wonderful weekend, you are amazing hosts!
- In our almost 25 years of being married, we have never felt so at home as we did at your Inn. You both made us feel like part of your family. The personal attention and care put into everything at Annville Inn shows and we appreciate you so much. The lovely atmosphere, delicious breakfasts, the snacks…the game room and movie theatre and the guest room itself were all perfect. We loved finding the hidden hammock in the Maze as well as the glider in the Butterfly Garden! We were so blessed to receive our daughters’ gift of a weekend away at Annville Inn!
- This was our second time in the English Manor Suite, and this time the magical celebration for our 25th anniversary and vowel renewal…which was beyond our expectations. Having our family here and Rosalie helping with all the arrangements – taking care of every detail of the day was just PERFECT. We will be back staying in the same rooms again this summer. We want to know the secret to your endless energy!!!!
