This is an antique mall with numerous smaller shops inside which are individually owned. You can spend hours wandering around and looking at all the old goodies and usually find something to take home. The proprietor is very nice and always makes us feel welcome.

Entertainment & Activities
Bowling is a lot of fun and this a great way to spend a cold day. Crowded during peak season and weekends but worth the wait. Grab a beer or soft drink and enjoy a game or two with family and friends.

I love this place because you get a chance to view local animals up close and personal. All the animals are either recovering from injury or not able to be released due to issues. Entry fees pay for animal rescue and care.
