Very lovely shop. This was the first store we ended up stopping at in downtown Petoskey today…read more A few of their coasters and artwork is from City Bird in Detroit too, which was funny - I have been there before (and that's a nice shop as well). I bought a corgi pin for $2 here (I love corgis) and wanted some of the prints/artwork too, but they were a bit pricey. They also have earrings/jewelry and a nice selection of Petoskey and non-Petoskey related gifts. The only reason I'm giving it 4/5 stars and not 5/5 is because they obviously have a bathroom, and it says OUT OF ORDER, but my guess is that it's not (where else would the employees go?) and perhaps that's COVID-related ... which is fine, but maybe just put EMPLOYEES ONLY instead. We went next door to Grandpa Shorter's and the employee there recommended the public bathrooms to us, so we took a bit of a hike down the street to the lake instead (pro tip: next time just go next door to the bookstore, they have one in the basement!). So yeah, I was a bit disappointed by that ... I could be totally wrong on this speculation but I've seen other businesses do that too. Other than that, very nice shop and they have super cute stuff, so I'd return next time I'm in Petoskey.

Unfortunately, we decided to make reservations for their "Dining in Lavender" special event, and it was a huge disappointment. For $400, we expected a much higher-quality experience. The food was mediocre at best, the service was poor, and overall it didn't come close to justifying the price. If you're planning a visit, I'd recommend stopping by to enjoy the beautiful property and gift shop, but I'd skip the "Dining in Lavender" event and save your money. The event is a great idea but it's very poorly executed. I saw similar reviews about this when booking and should have listened to them!!

Decent gift shop with some unique giftware and home decor…read more I assume this shop is somehow connected to the Grandpa Shorter's gift shop down the street, just based on the name. I stopped in on vacation, mostly because the window display seemed kind of fun and interesting and the signage indicated they sold antiques. Well, I didn't see any antiques (total bummer), but I did spy some cute decorative home accents, crafting items, gift ware and seasonal stuff. Apart from that, the shop stocked a lot of "boutique" baby gear, too, including clothing, toys, accessories for the new mom, and stuffed animals. Admittedly, much of the baby gear was quite cute, but way overpriced considering it's for infants and they're only going to wear most of those clothes once or twice. I wasn't super impressed by the level of service, which seemed non-existent. Some items weren't clearly-priced, which I found a bit annoying. Other items just seemed highly marked up. While a lot of it was nice, I just didn't think it was that nice, you understand? More or less, I'd say I wasn't bowled over. They did have some lovely Petoskey Stone jewelry and similar trinkets along that line as well, however, but then every gift shop downtown has those. For a small boutique, it was crammed with merchandise, maybe a bit too much so. It was hard to really scope out anything very well when everything was a bit too crowded. I kept thinking I was going to knock over a tightly-placed display or something. On the other hand, what they did sell seemed to be an eclectic mix, coupled with some very cute things. Unfortunately, everything that I was interested in didn't seem to be clearly priced. What gives? The person behind the counter seemed too busy and was engaged in conversation, so I didn't bother to stick around any longer to find out what I wanted. I felt like I was interrupting the employee who was ensconced in a deep conversation with a friend. For me, bad service is a turnoff, so I walked out. If I'm up that way again, and I definitely plan to be, I'll probably give this tiny boutique a second look because it did seem promising, but if there's no real improvement on the service front, I'll just walk out empty-handed for the second time.
