It reminded me of the late 1960s/early 1970s when we as little kids would eagerly look forward to receiving the full color JCPenney and Sears Christmas catalogs - which we'd look through over and over again - focusing on the toys section! Lots of trains, models, and all sorts of fun toys! I think you'll find something appropriate for everyone here!

It's on a little strip of shops and museums next to the Caverns entrance, so if you're there for that, you might as well check it out. It's small and self-guided. Typically, the toy displays are grouped by era so you can walk through and see the evolution of specific brands or style of toy. I probably wouldn't go out of my way to come here, but it is free to explore and it's right next to the one restaurant, so you could easily walk through here while waiting for your food order to be processed. Worth the price of admission.

To be honest, I'm not exactly sure how I found myself here, but it's included with admission to the…read morecaverns... I think it's meant to be a charming little stop where you walk through and check out old toys and dolls and classic play things but my visit here was incredibly brief. The displayed toys are interesting if you like looking at old collectibles but there isn't a lot to see. It felt more like walking through someone's dusty attic then exploring an exhibit and the space felt a little dim and even sad. There were only two children inside when I walked through and even they seemed unsure of what to make of it all. They seemed to be either bored or a little bit uneasy. Same as me I guess. There is value here if you are the right person and really love vintage toys or maybe history and the history of toys, but this is definitely not a stop I would plan a trip around. Luckily like I said it's included with admission so checking it out for a few minutes was fine by me.

I was impressed with the size of this toy store and excited to see that they carry many of my favorite toy brands like Folkmantis, Calico Critters and Ravensberger puzzles. They had a lot of fun sounding games I hadn't heard of as well. Aside from high quality toys and puzzles Shenanigans also had some really nice seasonal stuff like Advent calendars. My husband and I explored for quite awhile and finally landed on a Jellycat branded stuffed animal for a friend. For such a lovely store I would have expected there to be a little bit more in the way of service. For the fifteen minutes we spent in there the only acknowledgement we received was three words when we checked out - twenty-three seventeen. Maybe the employee was just having a hard day.

They had a huge wall of Calico Critters - by far the largest selection I've ever seen of that brand! It was a little overwhelming in the best way possible.

Their little vault bookstore room was so adorable and was really cute to look through.

The employees were friendly and helpful if you needed them. A great spot to browse or find a gift when in Charlottesville.

Glens is a quirky little store that I find delightful…read more I'm a photographer, so I usually spend the bulk of my time perusing the photo gear. The used photography gear is not terribly well organized, but if you're willing to dive in and brave the dust, you can find some real vintage gems. They stock newer stuff as well, including all the current Canon EOS DSLR bodies, along with a decent selections of lenses. They always seem to have a staff member knowledgeable about photography in the store; yesterday, I passed a good half hour talking shop with the man behind the counter, and walked away with a new lens at a respectable price. Their other inventory is eclectic, to say the least, but it's the kind of place to go for something unusual. I vacation in this area nearly every summer, and a stop at Glens is always on my itinerary.
