What a terrific historic building reused in a creative and entertaining way. There is art, small furniture, new and repurposed decor, and unique tchotchkes to bring to your own cozy home or gift to someone else's. Worth the jaunt across the bridges from wherever you are. Pairs well with the sister antique building across the street, with rustic and whimsical art, antiques, and collectibles. A terrific find!

Located near the heart of Great Mills Maryland it's only about 45 minutes from DC. It features the art of renowned local talent like Mary Lou Troutman as well as Donnie Poe who was a master of making signs with reclaimed wood. The staff are all knowledgeable and friendly and prices are reasonable. If you're interested in local realistic art, which is typified by nautical scenes and life on the Chesapeake, you will be pleased with the store.

This has to be one of the weirdest stores I've ever seen, but for a suitable souvenir of our…read moreSouthern Maryland trip, it sure fit the bill. There are three signs out front: "Harmon House Shoppes"; "Grandmother's Store"; and "Inner Equinox". I don't know what you might gather from three signs, but as I walked up the steps of the old house in which this shop is located I figured Harmon House Shoppes was a collective, and that Grandmother's Store and Inner Equinox were both inside. I was right, but these shops aren't separate. All the merch is together. This means that the chowder mugs, "Feeling Crabby" travel cups, crystal fan pulls, salt water taffy, and plush monkeys captured by "Grandmother's Store" are shelved right alongside the jasmine massage oils, meditation CDs, tarot cards, evil eye bracelets, and incense sticks captured by "Inner Equinox". This also means I was able to pick up a cheesy Chesapeake Bay snowglobe and delicate blown glass Christmas ornament because I like to collect both on trips, and husband was able to pick up a white sage smudge stick because he likes to burn things.

I almost passed by this little place! Thank goodness for the word "crystals" on the sign, made me…read moreturn right back around to check it out. There's a little bit of everything inside. Think of it as a new age metaphysical shop crossed with a quaint gift shop and you've got the Harmon House. The woman at the front desk, I did not get her name, is so sweet! She let us know about all of the classes and services they offer in addition to all of their neat gifts. Some of the things she mentioned were massages, reiki, and readings. I left with a gorgeous abalone shell ($11.99, such a steal!), a handmade magnet to remember my trip, and a few tumble stones. I couldn't be happier!

This store has lots of cute things but the woman that runs the store is unfriendly and lacks…read morecustomer service. Both times that I have gone in the store she has stared down customers almost as if they were there to steal. She never once welcomes anyone or asks if she can be of any assistance.

The owner and operator was most inviting and helpful. I only spent about 30 minutes inside but observed so many items that were inviting and worthy of another trip. I was able to purchase some items for upcoming events and admired several others. The shop even has sensory toys for children that could benefit from sensory toys. The shop has a set of handcrafted items by young artist as well as teas by an organization called Skirted Soldier - which is a female Veteran Owned company. I cannot wait to try the Cold Weather Gear tea (gingerbread house black tea). This bag of loose tea includes tea bags. Nice touch! I enjoy shopping and supporting local and/or small businesses. I am looking forward to my next visit.

I'm sure the locals know about the place but they don't seem to be sharing it on Yelp (maybe trying to keep it for themselves) LOL. This house contains quite an extensive collection of things from food items, vintage to handmade goods. It's like as if Etsy did a pop-up here. On the ground level, you can find local ice cream, meats from a local farm and other homemade goods like jams and sauces. Browsing in there makes it fun too as the items are displayed in the different rooms throughout. Every corner you turn there is something new! I saw some really beautiful items, some funny ones too. Great mix of stuff! You'll definitely find a one-of-a-kind item at this shop! Stay safe, Friends!

Unfortunately i met the owner of Colonial Collectibles and she is an extremely rude person! This small business is very unprofessional/incompetent. Colonial Collectibles also over prices EVERYTHING, for example i saw a few Kendra Scott rings priced at $80.00 when Kendra Scott sells the same exact rings for a cheaper price. The experience i had here was terrible and it's a place i will not be shopping at again.

There is a welcome hut where they give out maps and collect the suggested $5 donation. We walked some of the woods to view some of the sculptures. Several were very attractive and other pieces were not as striking. There is a fairy garden type play area where a number of kids were running around. We walked through the main arts building. We saw some exhibits and the gift shop. On the whole, it was smaller than I expected, but we did not walk all of the paths. I'm glad we took a look.

It was easy to get to, and handicap parking is located to the right as soon as you enter the grounds. All other parking is located in the grass. It's about a 5 minute walk from the parking to the lights. This place definitely did not disappoint and was well worth it! Tickets were $18/pp, parking is free. If you're bringing children and/or senior citizens be prepared to walk. It took us about an hour to walk through and see all of the displays. There were also a few spots for photo ops and food trucks with hot chocolate, fudge, popcorn, and light snacks. Two or three fire pits also conveniently located close by to warm up a bit. The inside was also open, with Santa photo ops, and a few vendors selling crafts. Highly recommend this place! Will definitely be back again next year!
