“We stumbled upon this hidden gem of an antique gun shop while driving past and decided to drop in. The owner was incredibly kind and patient. He showcased an impressive collection of antique firearms and even gave me a small gift as we left. If you love antique guns, this shop is a must-visit. Thank you for a wonderful experience!”
“This hidden gem is the unlikely mashup of a surprisingly well-organized vintage shop (everything from tools, housewares, sporting equipment, antiques and records/tapes/CDs/Dvds), used bookshop (in a geodesic dome outbuilding, no less), and a great little bird and reptile animal rescue facility. You can tell the animals are well cared for as they are cohorted in social groups, have immaculate enclosures and have a variety of toys to play with. What a hidden gem.”
“Not as many nightstands as the last time I went. I was able to find one that fits my set enough.
Always friendly staff. Interesting place to visit.”

“I enjoyed looking around this cute shop! I found some Wade's for a reasonable price. The owner was pleasant and friendly too! We will be back when we return to the area!”
“The employees at this store are fabulous. I've been watching a chair on Chairish for months, and it was finally reduced to a really excellent price. They held it for me until I could get there today. I guess I wasn't sure how big it is, but it's HUGE. It for sure didn't fit in the back of my SUV. so the employees managed to get fit it in with just a small portion protruding and bungee corded it very securely in my vehicle so I could make the seventy mile drive home with my new purchase. Thanks so much for the effort. I'm thrilled with my purchase.”
“Amazing experience! I did the sound bath meditation and it was nothing short of amazing. I felt like my body and mind was being realigned and restored. Highly recommend this to anyone looking to de-stress, reconnect, or just treat themselves to something truly restorative. Thanks so much Amy!!!”
“Not only does David possess a wealth of knowledge and a purists eye, he has a passionate integrity about the quality of his shop and the quality of both buyers and sellers experience with him. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to him tell me about certain pieces I had inherited and greatly greatly appreciated his sensitivity, patience and kindness as I dealt with letting go of some of my mother’s estate”
“Fascinating array of ‘old stuff’ - lots of turnover. It’s worth a visit just to meet the owners and enjoy the character of the building & its contents.”
