My eye was more drawn to the Historical Marker in front and then I had to stop and check inside…read more The marker reads, "Old Stone Shop. Built in 1848, by Batcheller & Sons, makers of pitchforks. For many years after 1808, farm implements were manufactured here. Lyman Batcheller & his sons bought the forge in 1835, and their forks became famous throughout the U.S. and Europe. In 1902 they merged with the firm making True Temper products, which re-built the Inn." The marker was erected in 1949 by the Vermont Historic Sites Commission. Inside, not just farm implements but jewelry and toys and furniture and cutting boards and glassware and pottery. It's just amazing to see all of this stuff that is, well, hand made in Vermont.

Not only that the gifts were nice but the costumer service was great and the worker did not rush us and was very kind. I highly suggest this place

This shop is adorable, well organized, and has an exceptional variety of products. I appreciate…read morethat things are well displayed and the entire store appears orderly. I found quite a few goodies here, for myself and for friends. If I were checking a bag, I would have bought so much more! The couple(?) that runs the place are very friendly. It's a bonus that this place is right next to where we're staying and there's a walking trail between the two! They have a great variety of maple products; sweet, savory, skincare, etc. Dog treats and toys, games for the family, household decor and more!

I'm only giving this store 2 stars because of its content. There are some cute souvenirs,…read moreespecially seasonal ones but a little overpriced in comparison to the other shops around. The other reason for the low review is the older woman behind the desk. I don't know what her problem was but she wasn't pleasant at all. My family and I are in VT for the first time ever and we only have one day so upon checkout we asked if there were any places open for us to go. The lady frantically tried to think of something, never once looking up at me when she spoke. Never smiled, never looked at me, told me a place that might be open and then walked away. It was off putting.

Amazing store. Has a little bit of everything. The staff is always friendly and ready to answer…read morequestions. The maple syrup they sell is the absolute best.

Cute little shop with candies, souvenirs, maple syrup and maple creamers (maple soft serve)…read more We got a couple, one with maple crunchie toppings. In looking at the wall, it looks like they have won lots of awards for their maple syrups!

Ever go to a place so much you forget you never did a Yelp review?…read more Well this place is a gem. Sure the candy or the wine is nice. And the local souvenir gifts are a plus. But you come here in part for three things: the maple syrup (nuff said), the view, and the Maple Creemees. We could call it soft serve but well, Vermont. The creemees are delish. Affordable and big they are perfect on a summer day, a fall, day or even a winter day. Then take it out and eat by the lake? Heavenly. Nice people. Well worth the stop.

I got a lovely set of earrings for a friend here, and we also got an ornament for a Christmas tree. Definitely worth stopping in.

There was a parking lot and we saw a bunch of plants and garden items outside. Inside was packed to the brim with items; from clothing, snacks, wind chimes, posters, etc. We bought a couple of VT shirts for our kids and maple syrup lollipops. Overall, a decent shop to get those last minute gifts and souvenirs.

The woman/owner (I believe) at the front desk was beyond rude and told us that our daughter better not touch anything. We left immediately, I have never experienced anything like this.

Easy five stars. No doubt…read more Absolutely beautiful setting. That's half of the experience, right? Service was excellent. Not intrusive, but attentive and accommodating. Nice job Samantha! And the owner is a great person. Tea: loved it! The selections are astonishing. Sandwich (tomato and mozzarella) and soup (broccoli and cheddar) just SO GOOD! High quality ingredients; exquisite taste, not overdone; and the bread... delicious! Rutland is blessed to have this place. As good as any similar establishment in a big city, here or abroad. All at very reasonable prices! Definitely the place to go.

When we have more time we will be back. We were quickly acknowledged and answered any questions we had. We ordered 2 drinks teas both were delicious, can't remember them right now. As our drinks were being created I was checking out their huge selection of bag teas, I had Lapsang Souchong tea on my shopping list for making seitan, I was shocked to find it in our lil small town and so happy! The Gentleman that waited on us knew all about its smokey flavor! I'm impressed! Looking forward to using it this week! The shop is nicely set up and has room for expansion. Has a seating area that is nicely spaced out. Very clean shop items, teas have their own areas. Looking forward to visiting with some friends soon!
