Walking around after a hike and a meal, we came across Cold Spring Antique Center. I have a wide…read morearray of antiques living in an older Victorian home, and always love to pop into spots to see what I can add to my collections. This particular spot had a wide variety of items. I found many items I was interested in, and then I came across a Steiff Hand puppet hedgehog. It was not in the best condition, but once I saw it, I could not get it out of my head. By far the cutest little find to add to my Steiff collection! I can't wait to go back and see what new finds they may have!

Allocate a lot of time for this antique store. There are…read moremany booths that are stuffed full of items to choose from.

All of your vintage Christmas dreams will come true at Once Upon A Time Antiques! This tiny shop is…read morecrammed with all kinds of curious finds, from toys throughout the ages to holiday treasures, with the exception of the oh-so-elusive vintage Halloween decorations (they do have a stand of repro postcards). But if it's Christmas that you're looking for, Christmas you will get. So impressive, from completely intact boxes of tiny glass ornaments to 1950s Santas and reindeer. Also, their antique Easter offerings are legit. Although jam-packed with stuff (little to no furniture, it's all knick-knacks, I believe), so much so that it's hard to take it all in, I think even Marie Kondo herself would find immense joy in something here. Note: as others mention, this store is way more organized and all items are clean and seem to be in good condition (unlike some of the other shops on the block). Definitely worth a stop in on your Main Street stroll!

What caught my eye immediately was this one-of-a kind, metal form fitting mannequin on the…read moresidewalk. After that, I dove right into Alley. I didn't hang around too long- but long enough to notice the nice service, front of the house with costume jewelry, cool knick-knacks on left. Said my goodbyes and left. Can't fault Antique Alley for their price tags. And obviously you're not going to get Salvation Army prices- up in swanky Cold Spring. I get it. But rare finds they are......I just don't want to break the bank either.

One good spot to stop by when visiting Main street of Cold Spring. The person in the counter is very welcoming. The location is easily accessible from the train station.

Came by here towards the end of our day of "antiquing" in Cold Spring. Having gone to several…read morestores to just browse around, we came here with the same idea. Overall, when you go to multiple stores like these they all tend to appear similar, but what set this place apart was the proprietor. He was extremely friendly, helpful, and sold us on a beautiful old mirror we were evaluating. His knowledge and experience were vast and he was able to thoroughly explain to us everything about this particular piece (timeframe, where it came from, where he came across it, and how he restored the back part for hanging purposes). His prices are also reasonable and if you're interested, he's willing to help push you out of the "maybe" category and into the "buy" with regards to the price Plenty of fantastic items to choose from ranging From old knives (army style) to old pieces of furniture (my wife is still thinking about going back for a rocking chair). This place isn't as big and doesn't have as many items as some of the other shops but it does some nice quality looking stuff and an owner willing to take time to explain it to you (didn't encounter that at many stores)
