It's fun to walk around in Stone Harbor looking at the beautiful shore homes as well as the older smaller homes. Stone Harbor also has a main street with about two blocks of stores and restaurants. Lots of clothing and home stores. My favorite is the 5&10 because it has a variety of merchandise. It's a little like going back in time. The strip is kept clean. There are benches to sit on. It's about a block from the beach, so it's an easy walk to go from the beach to get something to eat. Public Bathrooms are located at the end closer to the beach. The beach is nice. You walk up through the dunes. It's not a real long beach.

Tons of great businesses to patronize before and after your beach visit as well. BIG waves during our October visit which made paddle boarding (or my version of it which is just going weeeee on lil waves) super fun. A 6.5 hour drive from Rochester and a really good option if you're just looking for a speedy getaway.

To give a store owner a bad review for your daughter's mistake like this is repulsive. I wish I had spoken up for the store owner in the moment. She was extremely professional despite Karen (Jennifer L below) bogus rant and claim. Jennifer L. - teach your daughter the right lesson here.
