“Frankly I am biased toward places like R.A. Fountain General Store - I like books, music, history, old things and old-fashioned ways. Being of the warm and kindly people who live around here, Alex and Elizabeth run a warm friendly venue of music and literature with snacks and treats in an environment that simultaneously evokes memories (personal and shared) of old libraries, meeting halls, and old-fashioned stores with ice cream, bakery goods - and a healthy portion of antiques…. In short: a little trip back in time.
But what really makes this place a delight is the friendly atmosphere fostered by the kindly, welcoming nature of Alex and Elizabeth, and their eclectic mix of friends and customers. Bring in Alex’s knowledge of writing, books and local history along with his welcoming yet frank conversation, it makes it hard to leave. So you stay a bit, have some snacks and a coffee, browse the books and pick one out (maybe two or three), learn something about them on a relevant topic of literature or history and head home feeling a little happier and a little smarter from time well spent.
If you notice a musician or a band being promoted for an upcoming performance there I suggest you go, you’ll have a great time. But if you want a good seat up front - make sure you get your ticket in advance!”
“The team here is always very kind. The store is almost always easy to navigate. Only time that's an issue is when they are resetting aisles or when they get a large truck.”

“Got my vehicle's state inspection and got to meet some local folks. My inspection went swiftly and Boot is such a gentleman. Highly recommended this business. Honest, friendly and very respectful.”
“Really nice store and friendly employees. Only complaint I have is that I wish they would resurface the parking lot because it rough pushing a grocery cart across the rigid surface.”
“I always like going to dollar general, because they always have great deals each week. And they always have cold mountain dews in the drink coolers. And there's always some sort of a sale on different chips and snacks. But every one of the stores have staff with happy smiles.”
“Although this location was well kept and nicely laid out. The accommodations for larger vehicles are very limited to space. Truckers shop Wal-Mart to. Perhaps such things will change in the near future.”
