A huge, cute unexpected store you might not expect. Located in downtown Vermilion, Swan Creek…read more Candle is a local home decor and candle shop. The decor style leans towards farmhouse chic, which is not my style, but I can still appreciate the huge amount of effort in this shop. The store is meticulous. If the decor is your taste, you could easily outfit multiple rooms and do some serious damage! With everything from artwork to kitchen wares, you could easily find some treasures. If you're waiting on a pick-up order for food from Woodstock, this is a great choice to browse. Something I found unique is that in the back of the store you can find them cultivating small plants and sunning air plants. That was such a fun surprise, so make sure you adventure to the very back of the store! The associates are really helpful and the candles smell great. Most of them are in mason jars, keeping in line with the theme. Swan Creek is a lovely place to shop for a gift and an indisputable mood booster!

I am a long-time customer of Swan Creek and regret to say this experience has ended my relationship…read morewith this location. During a recent visit to complete our annual Christmas candle shopping, my wife, children, and I had a highly unprofessional experience involving an employee named Amanda. When we asked basic customer service questions--specifically about available gift sets and whether we could check out--we were met with unnecessary rudeness and dismissive behavior. Her words and actions made it clear that we were unwelcome in the store. This visit occurred within the final hour before closing, which may explain the treatment we received, but regardless of timing, customers should not be made to feel unwelcome or uncomfortable for asking routine questions. Unfortunately, the issue did not end there. Several days later, we contacted the store to report our experience. Amanda answered the phone and stated that there was no one overseeing management at the location and refused to provide contact information for any supervisor or corporate office. My wife did not identify herself during this call, so there was no indication that Amanda knew she was speaking with the same customer from the prior visit. On a subsequent call, I again spoke with Amanda and was provided a generic Gmail address as the only point of contact for someone allegedly overseeing the location. During this same conversation, Amanda stated she was working alone, which was later determined to be untrue, as the individual whose email address she provided was physically present in the store at that time. Eventually, I did receive a callback from the individual currently overseeing the store. I was informed that the store manager was terminated earlier this year and the position has not been filled. Despite assuming managerial duties, this individual stated he is not authorized to coach employees, address performance concerns, or take corrective action. No apology was offered for our in-store experience. Additionally, I was informed that there are no formal processes or training in place at this location related to customer sensitivity, diversity awareness, emergency situations, or incident escalation to corporate leadership. This lack of oversight and structure is concerning from both a customer service and safety standpoint. Based on this experience, it appears there is little to no accountability or management oversight at this location. As a result, I cannot recommend shopping here and will not be returning.

The only reason there is one star is because I cannot choose a zero…read more Unfortunately the candles I love, the customer service there on the other hand was astonishingly under par. And that is putting it mildly. My family and I were treated as almost an inconvenience, which is terribly sad as this is one of our favorite places to shop for candles and Christmas. I have worked retail/customer service since I was 16, I have dealt with everything under the sun you can think of. Our very normal shopping experience is not one that I would even remember in all my years. It is not one I could even recall. Especially with a small family business such as Swan Creek, you would think they value any and everyone coming in to spend their hard earned money on their products. One of their employees clearly felt otherwise and in front of my children made an (extremely uncomfortable to say the least) scene. Trying to talk to anyone since this incident has been like pulling teeth. I understand policies must be in place, but it has been made very clear that they do not have any procedures in place to handle something like this. Which is wonderful on one hand, meaning they don't often deal with this, and horrible on the other hand because it leaves customers on their own, with zero support from a small family business. All we asked for was follow up on training for employees, and an apology. I have never left a negative review in my life, but since no one would like to address this issue, it feels like my only resort. I'm not sure why, but I still have faith that maybe someone higher up will follow through, however it has not happened yet.

The amazingly friendly workers said they could make custom ones for my kids! So we went home with a custom blue and custom pink elephant we saw being made for the same price an existing one would have been. What great service and value! The second time I visited the shop was to pick up the free wax melts that were a part of the Dutch host inn package. Since it was just me I was able to ask about the candles. They pour all of them right there! There was a great selection of sizes, scents and jars. I love that they have lilac, basically my ultimate favorite scent. It can be harder to find. I left with a giraffe candle and a lilac candle (in addition to my wax melts). The shop does take credit cards but there is a four percent fee if you pay that way. If you are going to Walnut Creek farms it is right down the street from the entrance. Definitely worth a visit and a place I'll be back to!

The decor was so fabulous, seemed like a mashup of cozy, modern, rustic chic! The host, who must have been the owner, was so attentive, I can tell she's very passionate about providing high quality service and ensuring a fun atmosphere! The selection of scents were broad and also very unique! They had fall scents behind the counter to use so that was even more awesome that they rotate scents based on the season! The showers was a few hours long so we had plenty of time to enjoy some food from the shower and also make a candle. We were there long enough to take our candles home with us after they dried enough. Would definitely recommend this venue for a fun party idea!!!

The Granary has beautiful furniture, but if you want custom made pieces, look elsewhere. After…read morewaiting 3 months for my piece, they did not follow instructions. I didn't like a shelf so close to the floor, because I wanted to be able to clean under it, with ease. I also wanted the shelf to be 14" below the drawers, so that my CPAP machine could reach my bed. When it was delivered, those instructions were on the bill, and yet, they still didn't adhere to instructions. They did not communicate with me, unless I called and called. I paid nearly $600 for this sofa table, so I expected to get what I ordered. I was so tired of hassling with them, that I chose to keep the piece, rather than wait another 3 months.
