From the reviews
Old gentleman farm, then rural restaurant, now charming event venue. Authentic barn with weathered floorboards, stalls, and hay loft. And quite the gorgeous view from the back porch.
I have loved this place since my 10th wedding anniversary over 20 years ago. I have fond memories of the Booths and the five course meals with hay rides on a full moon night. When the opportunity came up to celebrate my and my sister's birthday here, I was so pumped to have LDF be the venue.
I cannot say enough nice enough things about The Little Dipper, and owner Venus. We decided we wanted to do an intimate weddings in September, and she accommodated a November date and had NO stress or bumps in-between! Venus was always patient, gave recommendations, & made herself always available.
The Little Dipper Farm Hosted our Annual Company Christmas Party this year and we could not be Happier about how it all turned out. The location is absolutely stunning and each room in the venue is rich in history.
Getting married at Little Dipper Farm
Little Dipper Farm comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see it at the time of day you'd actually get married — a barn that glows at golden hour can feel very different at noon, and you'll want to walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move?), the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included with the rental — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular dates at barn venues book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
Corporate events & private parties at Little Dipper Farm
Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at Little Dipper Farm — barn venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
