Definitely worth a visit. They had some heavenly scented soap and decor pieces, plus a bowl of lollipops on the counter. The owner is such a sweet lady, she doesn't need to give out candy. Had a couple of minor things happen: a woman watching the store for the owner seemed to have a bit of trouble using the computer to complete my purchase and when we left I noticed that I was charged more for an item than the price tag amount. We came back and the owner immediately gave me a cash refund for the difference, which I appreciated because it was done with a smile.

They have everything here from light fixtures, clutches, quirky signs and cocktail gifts, jewelry, to fun vases and banks. I can't believe how much is inside such a tiny shop. The staff was super helpful but not pushy. They have all kinds of price ranges. There's something for everyone. I love it! For sure going back.

I purchased an expensive Nambe salad bowl with wooden and silver tongs. The sales associate was…read morewonderful and wrapped it in bubble wrap since I was taking it to SF. I held the gift at my seat on the plane. When we opened it at my son's house the tongs were chipped. I immediately called the store and they said they would call manufacturer . They never called me Back. I had to call again and they said they would call back. Never did. Bottom line I should have gone to Bloomingdale's. Despite the cordial nature of the owner and his partner they didn't offer any compensation nor did they even have the courtesy to get back in touch with me. Brandon finally called once he read my two negative reviews. Almost two weeks to the day when I called him. Again, the item was defective and no recourse was offered to me. His response consisted of blaming me for carelessness in transit. Absolutely nothing true.

I had a reservation at the Farmhouse restaurant, but arrived early and decided to explore a shop I noticed near the side entrance. The moment I stepped inside, it felt like being transported somewhere magical. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit. The boutique shops lean toward the high end, offering everything from home décor and art to unique jewelry. As you wander through, you're surrounded by lush greenery--the central garden and nursery are filled with a stunning variety of outdoor plants. Along one side, you'll find thoughtfully arranged merchandise, from seeds to greeting cards and gift packaging, with a charming pottery section tucked at the very end. Upstairs, there's a lovely deck featuring patio furniture and hanging plants, perfect for inspiration. The pathway leading to the restaurant is especially memorable, with a series of archways that add to the enchanting, almost storybook-like feel. It's also a peaceful haven for wildlife--I spotted sparrows, hummingbirds, and bumblebees throughout the space, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Parking is easy, with plenty of free spaces available. A beautiful spot to stroll, shop, and dine--all in one place.
