Shoppers love the whimsical art, playful installations, and an ever-changing mix of antiques and quirky finds.

Little feedback on formal organization or wait times, but most describe an easy, enjoyable treasure hunt.
Drove all the way here, around construction zone, with no public notice but a sign on the freaking door, to find out they are closed until Jan. 2nd. No other business that Im aware of is closed that long after xmas. So now Ive got an autistic kid that is freaking out because we drove 45 minutes to get here. Thanks for not having a notification online and just putting a tiny note on your door.
This is a hidden gem in the community! Such great prices, and the owners and vendors are even better! If you’re looking for beautiful antiques, great customer service, and affordable pricing….look no further!
LOVED MY EXPERIENCE, not only was the atmosphere inside the store one of a kind. There were super cool finds there that could not be discovered anywhere else! From amazing customer service to the best prices out there I can safely say this is my favorite store!
I went to the new location and all I have to say is wow. Everything is incredibly affordable, in lovely condition and I think I could’ve stayed all day. Will definitely be back to this amazing little gem!

I can't say enough good things about this store! It was truly an experience. They have so many unique art installations that aren't for sale that add to the ambience of the find. My husband and I found so many cool pieces to buy at PHENOMENAL prices. I would seriously make the 3 hour trip a few times a year to shop here. I wish there were more unique places like this. Well done guys!
I've driven by so many times and finally made my way inside. If you're driving through, I would recommend a stop in to do a little walk through. You will not be disappointed.
What an awesome antique store. Super nice owner and the prices were cheap. The artwork in this place is what makes it. So many cool creations and neat sculptures.
Oh gosh where do I begin. The saying goes "One man's junk, is another man's treasure". This little gem has sooooooo many things. Can be a little overwhelming. But I tell you what some of the items , I mean such nostalgic items. Like everywhere I stepped i seen something, that just made so many memories come rushing back. It was almost surreal. Although I left with nothing. I definatley left happy with a lot of memories. All i can say is don't knock it until you try it. Have an awesome day.
My wife was absolutely thrilled with this place. It had a great selection of antique and quaint items that were of interest to both of us. The prices were very good and the whimsical decor outside was very nostalgic for both of us. It is very much worth taking a stop to visit this place.
Very cool place to shop for antiques and they have lots of items you will want to buy.... But, a lot of the really awesome stuff isn't for sale. It is just for display. Nice to see some of those items, but we couldn't buy them, which was a huge disappointment!
A whimsical place to shop with almost anything from A to Z. Old treasures, new yard art, books, vinal, maps, tools and lots of glassware . The store and outside is very visual with unique objects/ statues to draw you in. Once inside, it's like a wonderland. IMHO a must see spot in N.B., and a local treasure. Visit often and check their website.
Really enjoyed it and the prices were good which will always make it my need to stop when I'm in the state. Enjoyed the employees and the junk! Excellent treasure hunt!
I love this store, my kind of place! The metal junk art displays are awesome & fun, makes it a fun shopping atmosphere. Prices are reasonable & selection is varied. Staff is nice.
I love that place it is one of a kind if you've not being you have to go but you have to have some time because you really have to take your time to look she's got some awesome stuff I collect bears then I bought a hand-carved wooden bear love it
