I love this place. Being a tour director, I get to…read moretravel quite a lot and see many gift stores. This store, however, ranks high on my list for great -reasonably priced!!- gifts. I think Jennifer is the owner; she's very friendly. Her turqoise Adirondack chairs are outside. The whole place is a feast for the eye. Today I purchased my "Whale shaped" butter dish. Bottle openers, coasters, jewelry, clothing (gorgeous caftans, by the way) You name it...they've got a big mermaid thing going on! Definitely worth to take a look.

A trip to Rockport wouldn't be complete without a stop at the Country Store. Think old fashioned…read morecandy shop meets quirky retro insanity. With a real, functioning Nickelodeon (that costs more than a nickel), retro-inspired lunch tins, magnets, signs and books, incense, gag gifts, candles, cookie cutters, mugs, toys, and other eclectic goodies, this store is packed to the brim with unique and entertaining merchandise. And don't forget the penny candy (that costs more than a penny....a lot more). The entire left-hand wall is lined top to bottom with plastic bins of self-serve bulk candy. Nostalgic for Squirrel Nut Zippers? Wondering what ever happened to Teaberry Gum? Well wonder no more. From licorice to Nerds, bubble tape and flavored tootsie rolls, even those weird marshmallowy coconut watermelon slices, it's all here. Not to mention the dozens of flavors of Jelly Belly Jellybeans. Just grab a bag, fill it up, bring it to the counter for weighing and enjoy all of your favorite sweets. Or maybe a huge dill pickle or some fresh popcorn (maybe not all at once...) The Country Store has knick knacks from head to toe, and with so many different candies and trinkets to look at, it's hard to leave empty handed.

Big fan of this place…read more Hasn't changed since I was a kid. Lots of fun toys and tons of candy. Love it. This place is a must to stop by when you're kicking around Rockport. If you have kids: be careful because they will hound you like crazy for all that candy!!!

I stepped into this special space and told the older gentleman what I was looking for. He was so kind and opened every case for me to try rings on while I had my son in his infant carrier. He made me laugh and out me at ease. I kept apologizing for trying on every ring because I wanted to find "the one." It didn't end up being at this store but I would go back and certainly send folks his way! What a kind soul with a beautiful collection of jewels. Get your booty there ASAP!

They were incredibly accommodating on my dates, and were very responsive over email! Day of the event, we had arrived 10 minutes late due to traffic but they were gracious and happily waiting for us! They gave us a great rundown on how to choose our scents, and we had a wonderful time creating and naming our own candles! They laughed along with our chaos that 8 ladies bring, and I 10/10 recommend heading over to Rockport Candle Co when you're in town, and DEF recommend booking a private event with them!!!
