Large parking in front and accessable without steps. This morning there was a small bake sale happening that was sweet to see right when we walked in. At the entrance were a variety of kayaks, electric pedal bikes, scooters and gun safes on display. We were greeted kindly when we entered and found our way to the ammunition section. They offer a 10% discount on ammo after 10 boxes. Plus you can mix and match so that helps. We walked away happy with heavy metal shot gun shells. Kevin was great to talk with about it all and there was plenty in stock so get them while you can! Found a few items possibly for a birthday or Christmas gift I will need to come back for.

We were skiing at Boyne Mountain, and hubby said he needed new ski goggles. His were a decade old,…read moreand had developed a crack. Reason enough to get new ones. After a day of skiing, we stopped by Boyne Country Sports. Hubby picked out a nice, new pair of modern-technology goggles, then reminded me that my own decade-old goggles are too big to fit on my face under my ski helmet. They were always pressing on my sinuses the wrong way. OK, I'll try on some, too. The next morning, hubby noticed that my brand new, never worn ski goggles had vertical scratches in the centers of the lenses. Darn. He said we ought to exchange them. Back at Boyne Country Sports, he showed the scratches to Mike, the man who had sold us the goggles. Then they called in Steve, who seems to be the manager. Hubby showed Steve the goggles, and at first he said, "Oh that's just moisture." But when Steve looked at a second, then a third pair that had scratches already on them, he had to conclude that they were arriving at the store that way. He was going to have to speak to the Scott distributor. And then he did something amazing. He helped me pick out another pair that fit my head/helmet combination, and then he gave them to me for no additional charge, even though they were more expensive. I certainly didn't expect him to do THAT. Thanks, guys! Above and beyond the call of duty. :-)

It was way hotter than I'd estimated and I wanted to buy a cooler shirt without leaving downtown. I said I didn't really need a new shirt in general, just wanted something cooler than the top I had on. The new owner said, "Well, in that case, I just put some cute new tops on the clearance rack." So thoughtful! She even came over to help me find ones in my size and pointed out the best deals. I bought a soft, pretty blue Columbia tank top that I've ended up wearing all the time. Great experience. I will definitely be back. They have SO much cool gear!
