This was the first time I have ever stepped foot in this little antique gem! What a find! Lovely Christmas items. Beautiful items throughout all the rooms of the shop... it just kept going and going. Then onto the back porch with vintage doors and tools and patio furniture for sale. Then it leads into the garden with wonderful array of flowers. Beyond the garden is the general store with all of the homemade lotions, candles, soaps, jellies, jams, pickles, then a tea room in the back of the lot that was full with customers who had made reservations for tea with their friends and family. Such a wonderful find. All of the staff were extremely friendly. I purchased two items I couldn't pass up and she gave me a bit of a holiday discount. So I left very happy with my purchase. Stop in you will be glad you did. This place has something for everyone.

This is a great place for antique hunters. So many really neat items. It's hard to walk out without something.

I really really wanted to give this place five stars.It has all the bones and potential to be amazing.Ms. Laurie was delightful and friendly.The lady that brought our treats was sweet as well.It was Ms. Anna that soured our experience. And now I wish I could give negative stars.After initially being helpful in removing a wasp that was crawling on my toddler’s head Ms. Anna was short tempered and yelled and hollered at our kids even though they were polite and kept their hands to themselves and were marveling at all the pretty flowers and trinkets in the outdoor space.She yelled at the girls when they were going to the bathroom together (the went together because the light in the bathroom was burnt and they were scared to go alone) so they were going to wait for each other at the bathroom. She yelled that she didn’t want them walking around. We explained the situation so she snapped “fine two by two then” weird but we let it slide and told our girls to go in pairs.After we finished our brunch my friend took the girls to walk around and look at plants and flowers. Anna then yelled at the girls to not touch anything. In the presence of their mom.We began packing our leftovers and I was chatting with Ms. Laurie and then she said she had to talk to Anna because they’re closing soon. Anna continued to be strange. While thanked us for coming a minute later as I was showing my friend the beautiful herb garden she yelled at me, A grown woman, At the top of her lungs to STOP TOUCHING things so I raised my voice so she could hear me over her own roaring and said I am demonstrating how basil and mint grows to my friend. I haven’t touched nor damaged her plants. To that she rubbed her face and said oh or sorry. She then went around to where my friends’ 4 year old was standing patiently waiting for her mama and screams GO TO YOUR MOTHER STOP TOUCHING like a madwoman.At that point I couldn’t stay silent.I responded with apologizing to my friend’s daughter loudly so that Anna could hear “adults should NEVER yell at kids”. And then I told Anna loudly “DO NOT YELL AT CHILDREN, she was waiting for her mama patiently and politely. You had no right to yell” as we were leaving.My friend also told Anna she shouldn’t yell at her kids and that it wasn’t okay.We didn’t wait to hear what she had to say. She blabbed something back but we just walked away from Crazy old lady.But shame on Anna and shame on the lady in the hat that works there for not stopping the verbal abuse from happening.She saw how horrible Anna was being to the kids and did nothing to stop her or let her walk away.-Pros:Pretty locationDelicious teaDelicious chicken salad croissant sandwichesDelicious cucumber sandwichesMs. Laurie was sweet-Cons:•Not enough food (like a slice of each per person for the adult meal) (the only reason we had enough to eat because our friends didn’t come so we asked for their boxed meal to be served. So we were able to fill up on the few extras that were packed)•Only two pots of tea and you can only choose two (which is actually three because they gave us two pots of herbal tea and one of black and added pot of pink lemonade)•The pink lemonade has a goat-y smell and aftertaste•The kids amounts were measly and barely anything to provide sustenance.•Anna (her presence, her attitude, her aggression, her verbal abuse of children and adults)•More fans were needed to enjoy the outdoor space. One big floor fan and one skinny one next to each other barely made a breeze.•the place claimed to be “fully booked” but it was just us outdoors and one table indoors.A big part of me feels like perhaps miss Anna is just a grumpy old lady that doesn’t want to deal with customers. (It doesn’t excuse her behavior one iota but it sure does explain it)If that’s the case then I recommend she remove herself from the customer service industry, because if you don’t have the generosity of spirit to be kind to children and adults, you need to get out of the hospitality industry for sure.

Great furniture and accessories selection, well curated pieces, very crowded with options! Traditional, primitive, farmhouse, shabby chic, french country, vintage and more all well represented. Garden center has beautiful plants and pots to choose from. If you're looking for something 'niched' you might just find it here.

The best smelling candles ever! So small yet so fragrant! One small candle fills the entire 1200 sq ft of my bottom floor. When the giant ones I purchase from target or B&b works don’t even come close.

Outstanding in every way imaginable! I just love the feel of this place and Deb and team are so incredibly kind. I've furnished a good portion of my house with rare finds from her store. She displays everything so lovingly and sells very unique furniture with craftsmanship you just can't find anymore. If she can offer you a better price on something she will, and she always seems to know the back story on every item she carries. Great, great little shop if you like antique furniture!

Beautiful country antique store! Lots of inventory here. Tables, pictures and home decor. Dressers and side boards. The whole place is enjoyable from the start with the wooden porch and rocking chairs very picturesque and Country vibe. The owner is very nice and welcoming! Don't miss the back garden center with more antique planters and real plants to purchase there's also a little "general store" with local made soaps and jelly! Just a delightful experience!
