They had everything from sustainable hiking gear, flannels, beanies, and cute craft cocktail mixes for camping. The items are on the pricier side, but 100% worth the cost.

I recently stumbled upon Northern Outfitter Bait Shop, and I have to say, it's an absolute…read morenecessity! In downtown Grand Rapids this place offers everything a fishing enthusiast could dream of, combined with trendy outdoor apparel that would make any fashion-forward adventurer swoon. Firstly, the selection of bait is pretty good. Whether you're looking for live bait or lures, they've got it all. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and eager to help you find exactly what you need to reel in the big one. Their expertise and friendliness make shopping here a breeze, even if you're new to fishing. They carry a wide range of trendy brands, including Patagonia. Whether you're gearing up for a day on the lake or just want to look stylish while exploring the great outdoors, you'll find something that catches your eye. The quality and variety of their clothing are impressive, with options for every season and activity. And let's talk about the Yeti merchandise! If you're a fan of Yeti, this is the place for you. They have an incredible array of colors and products, from coolers to drinkware, all designed to keep your gear cool and your drinks even cooler. It's a one-stop shop for all things Yeti, and the vibrant color selection makes it easy to find something that suits your style. They are currently 15% off everything they have in stock which I really haven't seen a discount like that anywhere else. Overall, Northern Outfitter Bait Shop combines the best of both worlds - top-quality fishing gear and trendy outdoor apparel with the comfort and easiness of a small town shop. It's the perfect place to stock up on essentials for your next adventure while looking good doing it. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area. My personal favorite is Bennet Francis the sleepy dog at the counter. He is so sweet, gentle and laid back. He's just happy to be there and catch some z's.

Their prices range depending on what you're looking for, but everything is quality. The salesman, Grant, was so helpful and knowledgeable. We didn't check the weather forecast before traveling up to Grand Rapids, and were going to be SOL before finding Thousand Lakes. Everyone in the fam ended up getting a pair of Grundens boots, rain gear, and hats. Bonus: they have a shop dog who is sweet as can be!

A Google search produced Glen's as a supplier and they had the same price but free shipping if I bought 10. I tried to do so on the web site but the system said they didn't have enough stock.

I'm very pleased with the pricing and the friendly service and highly recommend Glen's.

Pluemer's is by far one of the biggest antique stores in northern Minnesota…read more I've been to Pluemer's many times and I'm always impressed with the huge number and variety of antiques packed into this building. It has a giant first floor and a half 2nd floor balcony area. The west side is mostly one vendor that specializes in high quality automotive and advertising type items. The prices in this area are pretty high. You won't find any deals here. He's definitely charging what you'd expect as "full-retail" in a major metropolitan area antique store. But he does have some nice stuff. The east side (and the 2nd floor) is mostly filled with the owner's items. This area has a big variety of merchandise and a lot of things you'd typically see at an antique mall. But there's a LOT of it. According to the owner, he once sold furniture out of this building -- hence, the name and the sign. But now it's 99.9% antiques with only a few antique or vintage pieces of furniture. If you're interested in antiques, I recommend stopping in if you're in the Grand Rapids area. -Daddy Maxx Retro

I am sure as this area grows, so will the mall but in the meantime the store owners should probably come together and work on driving more customers in to shop. More customers, more revenue and more stores in this location which in turn is better for the customers.
