Not just tshirts and hats and other clothing items, but they have posters and postcards and maple syrup and such. So much to choose from and I thought the prices were reasonable.

Yes, it would be cheaper to buy on Amazon, but I'm buying it on vacation to play with my kids now. I would not have known to buy these games otherwise, and I'm in a place in my life that I'm happy to pay the 1-2 dollars more for the immediacy and curation of goods found in this store. Hands down, this shop has the cutest designs for Lake Placid shirts. My son was so happy with the shirt we bought him here. He couldn't stop staring at his shirt as we walked down Main Street. He wanted to wear the shirt immediately. My daughter was a bit sad they didn't have her size. The staff was so friendly, and this store is very conscientious and does not allow more than 15 persons in their shop at once. Great place to shop! I highly recommend stopping by, even if just to look at the apparel. The have apparel for adults to babies.

The waterfall itself is stunning, and the experience of getting to it makes it even better. There are wooden walkways built around the falls that let you get incredible views from multiple angles. The walk can feel a little nerve wracking at times, especially if you are not great with heights, but everything felt very stable and secure. Once you step out and see the waterfall up close, it is completely worth it. The sound, the views, and the overall atmosphere are amazing. There is also a small gift shop on site, which was a nice touch. Overall, this was a great experience and a place I would absolutely recommend if you are in the area.

I communicated that I would like one of the Kissing balls and I was told $50. Knowing that $50 was significantly overpriced, I said no thank you and exited the store.

After I exited the store and made my way to the car, the store owner chased after me calling me an asshole and giving me the finger. For the record as predicted I found the same item from another local business for 30% less.

It's nice, when you're shelling out for a specialty arrangement, to feel like you've got a say in what the flowers will look like, no? I was also told, in no uncertain terms, that a surprise delivery wouldn't be possible - she'd have to call the recipient a day in advance to arrange delivery, even though I had special instructions, including where to keep the arrangement safe, all ready to go. When I said I'd have to call back to ponder that stipulation, she kinda laughed at me - not my thing. Elsewhere I'll take my flower biz, methinks.
