I could have spent hours in this wonderful store. I felt like I was back in an old time mercantile. I found items not available in regular stores. Oh, and what neat toys.

This is a wonderful store with everything you can imagine, including so many items that I thought we're not manufactured any longer. I could spend hours in here. It's a must see!

If your looking for good quality and unique merchandise this is the store to visit. Pricing is fair based on the quality of merchandise. Great customer service! The store is located in the downtown historical district and is quite old but well kept.

A little of bit of something for everyone. From monster-sized YETI coolers and cast-iron skillets to toys and jewelry and artwork. Cool place to visit.

This store is so awesome! They have something for everyone. Hardware and such for men. Housewares and other lovely things for ladies. Old timey toys for the kiddos. It is really neat inside with exposed brick, old wood floors and such. It is a big place to allow plenty of time to explore.

Very unique shop. Nice to see such a place still exist. It was also nice to see the shopkeepers interacting with the locals. You could tell that no big box store will ever take the place of this store.
