I wasn't sure what to expect since I tend to be wary of tourist traps, but this shop is more of a specialty shop as it carries a wide variety of items, from candles to jams, to clothing and magnets. It's very well done. There's three sections in the store, as it has to expand within the historical building it occupies. The first section has the most variety as it sells small items like candles, dish cloths, lights, etc. The second section is clothing focused. The third and most personally interesting sells food. They have homemade fudge and turtle cookies, as well as candy station. There's a wall of jellies and jams, including UP favorites like thimbleberry jam. The people manning the store are super friendly as a huge plus!

Some prices seem reasonable and on sale, other prices inline with top brands. They also sell a bunch of tee-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies with Houghton , UP, Yooper, etc. on them. Some really cute clothes but not many in larger sizes. Maybe because it is end of the season? Either way, I would definitely check out this store when Houghton!

Driving down US 41 we saw a place called Prospector's Paradise. When we were driving by it looks…read morelike just junkie rocks. But we turned around anyway to see what was there. Oh my goodness what an amazing store inside. So many wonderful and spectacular display of rocks and minerals. It's a haven for collectors and others like myself who just love pretty rocks. When you leave you are invited to take a free rock from a bin. If in the area it's a must to stop in The owner, Alex Fagotti is very friendly, helpful,and knowledgeable.

Prospector's Paradise claims to be "A Rock Wallmart" [sic] and they're pretty much that! If you…read morelike rocks and minerals, they have tons--literally. There's an entire room of copper specimens and shelves full of both local rocks and minerals as well as specimens from all over the world. Prices ranges from a dollar or two on up to several hundred for the rarer ones. Those making a purchase are invited to make a selection from a "free rock bin" as they leave, too. My biggest complaint, however, was that a large percentage of the specimens on the shelves inside are not priced individually, and with such a wide range in sizes and potential prices, it can be difficult to know which items you may want to consider purchasing or not... after all, do you really want to lug a ton of rocks down to the cash register in the hopes you won't be breaking the bank?

I just got How to Stand Up to a Dictator by Maria Ressa and then Caste, and both books received high prizes for their writing, including a Nobel Peace Prize and a Pulitzer. Maria Ressa was imprisioned in the Philipines and is a prolific writer. But every time I go into this store I am treated well, and if I need help they help me enthusiastically, so if you like good customer service and you believe in social justice--this is a good place for you to shop.

I brought in two pocket knives for sharpening. First, they told me that they would give me a call…read morewhen they would be ready which was in a few days. A week and a half later - I called them and they said that the knives would be ready for pick up at the end of the day. I picked them up the next day - they charged me $8.00 for it - however, the knives were not sharpened as the edges had the same pieces of dirt and grime as when I brought them in. Highly recommend going elsewhere to do any kind of business unless you really want to be ripped off. If they cannot be honest enough to sharpen knives, how can they be trusted in any kind of other business transaction?

They don't ask what you project is to engage you. They point you in the general direction of what you ask for. Pricing is a bit higher than other lumber yards.

I drive to Calumet or Houghton now.
