I'm going to kind of double up on this review. Harvest Creek and Pine Creek Ltd pretty much sit…read moreright on top of one another. They are "creeks" separated by a wall but they both have a very similar feel. So similar in fact that I asked my girlfriend... "Do you think these shops might have the same owner?" The atmosphere is low lit and cozy and the collection of merchandise is eclectic. Definitely not something that you run into every day... I'm not sure how to describe the merchandise. Pine Creek offers some seasonal and smaller home furnishing. More leaning to home good. And some items on Harvest Creek you don't necessarily think of when you think Iowa. Some border what you think of when you think wiccan or occult (not in a bad way though)... If I had to guess the owners have their own personal tastes and interests and they stock the shops to align with what they like and hope the market finds them. We really enjoyed looking through both of these little shops and they are ones I would encourage anyone coming through the Winterset area to stop and check out both Harvest Creek and Pine Creek Ltd!

Outstanding customer service added to their terrific snack and chocolate options. There is a great look throughout the store, and kindness prevails. A positive atmosphere.

Some rocking chairs (not good for rocking, though they look nice), wind chimes, rag rugs and lawn ornaments. A tourist trap if I ever saw one. I bought an Iowa postcard and got the hell outta there.

Plenty of parking and a fenced pet area too. We stopped in to see what was in this store. There's…read morelots of Amish and Plain Community products, foods, and more.

My pics show many of the displays still being filled but there is still plenty of opportunities for shopping enjoyment. Take your time looking at my pics, and you'll see their great variety. They are part general store, part board game seller, part restaurant plus a bunch of wholesomeness that you aren't going to find in any box store. The staff was quite busy but still incredibly helpful. There were two sets of cashiers for customers' convenience. This is a good place to browse (check out my ice cream island pic!).

The Dutch Country General Store is a gem in Winterset!…read more From locally made goods to some bulk candy and what not... This is a true general store stocking everything from dry goods to a small meat and cheese counter. The focus is on locally made products, but you can find everything you need here. Everything you need when you think about an old school small town general store that is...it's not freakin' Walmart. Lol The overall feel reminds me of the stores that are common in the Amanas and Pella. If you're in the Winterset area to check out the bridges, and want to do some additional shopping, stop in and check out the Dutch Country General Store! The staff is friendly and the prices are decent... And don't forget to grab a free soft serve ice cream cone!

1 star because zero isn't an option…read more I didn't know Jade Palace was running a social experiment on how little food you can serve for $34 before someone calls the health department, but here we are. First off, I've been to plenty of Chinese spots in my life, and even the hole-in-the-wall places will heap you up like they're trying to feed a football team. Not here. These folks handed me what can only be described as a pup cup of rice. Like literally, I could've ordered a Starbucks dog treat and come out with more carbs. Then came the "egg rolls." Spoiler: they weren't egg rolls. They were limp, barely warmed-up spring rolls stuffed with sadness. Two of them. I ordered egg rolls and ended up with appetizers straight out of a gas station freezer section. Uncooked on the inside too--crunchy outside, still questioning life on the inside. Beautiful. Now let's talk about the chicken and broccoli. Usually this dish comes swimming in sauce--like the kind you actually want to drown your rice in. Instead, I got a dry broccoli funeral with a few strips of chicken sprinkled on top. No juice. No flavor. Just vibes. Honestly, if my Tupperware lid had more moisture from condensation than my meal, something went terribly wrong in the kitchen. $34 for this? Jade Palace, y'all should be arrested for armed robbery with chopsticks. At this point, I'm convinced the chef just saw me walk in and thought, "Let's see how far we can push this guy before he calls the health department." Well congratulations, I'm one step away from dialing. If you're into overpriced rabbit portions, mystery eggroll-spring-roll hybrids, and flavorless broccoli fitness bowls, Jade Palace is the spot for you. If you actually like Chinese food? Do yourself a favor and eat literally anywhere else--even Panda Express would be fine dining compared to this nonsense.
