Oh Huck's...easily my favorite spot we visited on Main Street in downtown Blue Ridge!…read more A true "General Store" from entry to exit! Huck's offers a wide variety of items from gifts, shirts, hats, toys, soaps, tchotchkes, souvenirs and most importantly candy! But not just your average candy, the type of candy you can only find in a spot like this! You can scoop up the candy in pieces or by the pound, or grab you some of the specialty candy they have boxed on the shelves. Either way, get some candy and feel like a kid again! We ended up at Huck's twice during our three day trip. The first haul was candy, shirts and a hat. Second was for more candy, another shirt and a magnet. Both trips were successful! Outside of all the goodies, the service was absolutely stellar here! Overall, Huck's is legit and a spot we will certainly visit again!

WE LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!!…read more Lots of nostalgic items here, including an eating area that is a super cool replica of the country diners of old as well as vintage Coke signs, vending machines and coolers! They also have local knick-knacks and old school candies such as slap-sticks, candy dots on wax paper, and squirrel nut zippers. I really freaked out when I spotted the gum cigarettes I used to pretend smoke as kid while Jamarcus had to have those old school big red wax lips. The owner (Gladys) was a real sweetheart and welcomed us to come back anytime. We sat on the front porch eating our candy and just enjoying our day of hiking local waterfalls. Mountain Junction General Store is a cool stop on the way to Highlands, SC. We had a great time and will be stopping here more often when traveling in the area. Be sure to also get a cup of delicious boiled peanuts from next door @ Victory Garden Produce. 2017/101

When you're out exploring, you stumble across places and things. Fortunately when we were out…read more looking at scenery from the Sky Valley Overlook and Mud Creek falls, some of us had to go to the restroom, and Mountain Junction was the first place we stopped. This place is a little building filled with history, from old soda machines to malt/milk shake making displays, and old school candy (um, can you say pop rocks, wax lips and cigarette gum...that blows out candy smoke when you blow on it. YES!) In addition to the nostalgia you'll no doubt get...especially if you were around in the 80s, there's actual snacks and sodas too, and the mentioned restroom in this General purpose store. There are several aisles of preservatives, groceries and such, like Apple butter, or chips, and staff here not only are nice, but happily take a minute to talk to you about everything they have on hand! Located at the intersection of Old Mud Creek Road and Dillard road, pretty much right at the GA/NC line, You can't miss Mountain Junction with the big water wheel front and center. Parking is gravel and grass, but no worries because there's a decent amount of room for space, and there's a little produce stand right next door that sells fresh veggies if you want them. I like that we stopped here, because i've passed it once before, and realized that decision was a mistake, and i'm telling you if you pass it by without at least taking a minute to walk down memory lane, you'll think it it's a mistake too.
