Treehouse books is a wonderful little spot especially if you have little ones…read more I've noticed the differences in the books shops around the area. One is more of a wide variety but more modern, Tree house focuses more on kids and young adults, the Book Exchange is more like a library with collections, older , modern, categorized etc. this is a wonderful thing because you can't help but go through all of them. Treehouse does have a wide selection but over all vibe is bring your kids in and there is a flavor of literature for everyone. They are price very well and I was even able to get a replica ring of THE ONE RING ... TO RULE THEM ALL lol . Treehouse is a wonderful spot so don't pass it up.

During a road trip to Portland, my wife & I stopped in Ashland for a day.  While walking around…read moredowntown, we found this lovely children's bookstore.  Housed in a former bank, the staff here have crammed children's books, toys, games and other trinkets in every nook and cranny of the place, including inside the bank vault in the back of the store.  They have optimized the small space, offering the inventory of a much larger store.  Despite the vast number of titles available, the store is very clean and well organized.  The staff are also very helpful and were willing to answer all of our questions.  This is a must stop for us the next time we visit Ashland!

Hermeticus is the "reincarnation" of a Talent bookstore destroyed in the Almeda Fire. It was…read moreopened on Nov. 9, 2021, at a B Street storefront in Ashland, steps from its intersection with Fourth Street in the Railroad District. One of the original owners recently passed and if you want to buy one of his fascinating and original wall art pieces, good luck! Past that, this is definitely a book store of literary titles that you didn't previous know that you needed. The store (which I think was once a Yoga studio) has 2 spacious rooms (front and back) and plenty of space to spread out and dive in. The selection is well curated (and organized) and priced accordingly. Hermeticus really requires multiple visits as there's so many exploration options. The person working the day I was there, was well versed in what topics I chose to bring up. I'll be sure to visit again the next time I'm in Ashland and hope that I can pull the trigger on a unique art piece or some personal literary masterpiece.

Stopped here during a drive through Ashland, because it sounded interesting and arcane. I was…read moreright. Not what you'd expect, the little used bookshop is full of rare and fascinating books on Alchemy, knowledge held by Mystery Schools of the past, and quite a selection of rare books on similar subjects. The owner was super friendly and helpful, even gave me a birthday discount on my purchases. Only in Ashland could a place as cool as this exist.

Nice little shop not far from the inn we are staying at while visiting Ashland this week…read more They have many gift items and trinkets, plus some impressive statuary and fountains. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. We browsed for almost an hour, and both the girls bought things for themselves - like Shashibo shape shifting boxes ($21.95 each), stuffed toys and animal figurines. We will be back later in the week to buy gifts for friends and family.

On July 3rd of 2026,i was contracted to play 45 minutes of original acoustic guitar pieces as…read moreentertainment for an event being hosted at the Northwest Nature store.Upon my arrival,i set up my folding chair and began my set.Within a minute or two,my employer(not Nature Store employees)materialized out of the rather large crowd,gave me my fee,plus a geneous bonus,and said ,"Do your thing Brother Harry",and disappeared back into the crowd.I began to play again when i noticed a group of several kids(12-13 yrs.old?)setting up musical equipment 30'or so away from my location.All of these kids were openly staring at me with dirty looks on their faces.At a loss,i kept playing acoustic guitar as i was being paid to do.After a minute or so,one of the kids started playing an electric/acoustic guitar and i immediately began playing complimentary,tasteful,leads in an appropriate walking minor scale,rather than continue with my piece,so as not to be dissonant or discordant with a fellow musicians efforts.(even if it was some inexperienced kid,as i am a consumate professional with 40 years experience under my belt).At that point i noticed an adult that seemed to be involved with the kids,also giving me extremely dirty looks as i continued to do my job.As this man approached me staring sourly,i addressed him in a friendly and professional manor,informing him i would be happy to just play accompanying acoustic guitar to whatever the kids were going to play so as not to be a distraction or source of disonance.This male adult cut me off mid sentance by informing me in a menacing bullying manor that ,"UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ARE YOU TO PLAY ANYTHING WHEN THE KIDS ARE PLAYING".Shocked at his rude aggressive and Highly unprofessional attitude,i calmly began to inform him i was not some random busker,but instead was a paid professional there to do a job.Mr.Luz(i found out his name later),cut me off again with the same statement regarding my purpose at the event.Luz walked off to his car,and within a minute was back,standing over me,telling me again not to play while this kid was playing,to which i responded,"What are you going to do dude,beat me up?!"Luz smirked and replied,"No ,but you are not going to play".Throughout this entire interaction,all 3 or 4 of these kids are watching this,still with looks of disdain and hostility on their faces.o told him again i had been paid to be there,tried to ask him if he knew my employers for the event,all to no avail.He said "I dont care",and walked back to where the kids were at.Instead of causing a scene and potentially embarrassing both myself,and my employers,i packed up my guitar and went home.I informed my employer via text what had happened and they assured me Mr.Luz would be addressed.Well,i come to find out this fellow Felipe Luz runs an organization called Gateway Music Collective in which he is supposedly teaching these children how to become professional musicians!?If you are a parent of any of these kids he is "mentoring"you should know that this person is a complete and total bigot,not to mention a garbage teacher of musicians etticate,whom is poisoning young minds with misdirected unprofessional behaviour! I myself,am a veteran pro musician with credentials that include writing music sound tracks for Sony Music Corp. Playstation video games,National touring credits,and Internationally released album music writers credits for a world famous punk rock band from L.A. as well as an ASCAP'd published songwriter.But because i am 55 yrs. old,with a bleached 10" tall spiked mohawk,am covered from neck to fingernails in 30 yr. old lousy tattoo work,and have teeth that look like a beat up picket fence with boards missing,this "teacher"of other peoples children felt it was ok to bully,menace,embarrass,and humiliate a fellow musician IN FRONT OF SAID CHILDREN,because he was too ignorant to even ask or listen to anything i said.Instead he set an example for these kids,that judging a person by their physical appearance is perfectly ok,and furthermore,looking different equals a lesser person whether they are a fellow musician or not.MR. LUZ YOU ARE TEACHING OTHER PEOPLES KIDS TO BE BIGOTED,HATEFUL,AND IGNORANT,AND I FULLY EXPECT A PUBLIC APOLOGY FROM YOU BEFORE I CAN BE FREE OF THE HUMILIATION YOU CAUSED ME WHILE I WAS TRYING TO DO MY JOB.To do anything less only furthers your lack of professionalism.

I have spent a lot of time and money here. The prices are all over the place, but it seems to average at $6-$10 per paperback, if it's a popular series it will certainly be near $10 or higher. I recently traded a series of books and was shocked by the store credit I received. I traded a new series of popular books that are hard to get second hand. The series is so new it's still being sold in big book stores for $60. I received $1 store credit per book. I couldn't even get an older $6 paperback I found with that credit. I understand that's how they make money but I am still disappointed. I will now only come here to buy used. I would have rather donated to the library for that price, that way I could at least check them out again.

Whether you are there to sell books or buy books, or place an order for a book, this is one of the very best places near Ashland. It is not technically within the city of Ashland but very close, in the town of Talent, right off the highway with parking. I have enjoyed working with this couple and look forward to many return visits. Prices are very very reasonable, lowest in the area for used books, and there are more than paperbacks here, there are also hardbacks!
