Not only is this a gorgeous art gallery, but it's a very unique AirBnB as well! I mean, how often…read moredo you get to stay in a studio suite located INSIDE an art gallery?? I felt like I was in Night at the Museum after business hours haha!! The hostess, Lee Ann and her husband were the sweetest, most considerate hosts I've ever had!! Not only were they extremely thorough, communicative, and available, but they made me feel so welcome and at home! They even had a basket full of goodies waiting for me - including some incredible varieties of homemade muffins that were some of the best I've ever had! The suite is located just off to the side inside the actual art gallery but there's plenty of privacy - you can enter through the gallery or through your own private back door so it's totally not an issue. The suite itself was immaculate and HUGE!! Especially the bathroom!! Complete with a dining table, couch and little sink/microwave/fridge area. The WiFi worked well - no issues. And the TV even had nice cable available. But there's so much to keep you busy in the area I hardly watched it. There's a perfect porch off the suite with patio seating, a grill, and incredible views of the mountains! I was there in early October and was just a tad too early for peak fall colors - but the color was starting to come in. I imagine it's positively breathtaking at peak fall color!! And they had some hummingbird feeders outside the windows which was such a joy!! The grounds are extensive - there's a huge field outback with a river at the base of the mountains - tons of birds chirping! The gallery is also centrally located in proximity to tons of ski areas and lovely towns/cities like Montpellier, Woodstock, Killington, etc. Great location!! The suite is very handicap accessible- even the bathroom and shower - very well set up for it. Parking is in their private gravel lot outside the gallery. The art work is just lovely as well and made by the hosts - so talented!! I had such an awesome experience- can't say enough good stuff about it! I will definitely be back anytime I'm in the area!

Everything here is very affordable and we can't wait to go back! Even my husband had to buy things and he HATES shopping hahaha Love this place!

There are several floors with aisles of merchandise. You can spend hours browsing for items. It's located in a strip mall with other shops including where you can purchase Vermont Cheese and Maple Syrup. You can also sample wine and spirits nearby. On nice days they sometimes have a flea market in the parking lot with all sorts of items including antiques. There is always ample parking. A must stop if in Vermont.

We entered through a door with a giant bear next to it for photo opps, and into the part with all kinds of fun Vermont (maple) treats, drinks, and other snacks. Then there was main floor, upstairs, and downstairs to see. Missed downstairs since I heard that was mostly furniture, and I spent about 2.5 hours scouring all the rest. Prices were all over the place, as is so often the case with antique malls. Bargains and Zingers abounded. Because I bought so many smaller items, it overwhelmed the young man doing the check out, and it soon before they were closing. He did not know how to prioritize, and unlike the ladies that opened the 2nd register, he did not go over all that I bought, confirming the details, which frustrated me, because I'm pretty sure I got overcharged for a couple things. So, make note, and add up stuff yourself if you are buying more than a handful of items. The staff sprinkled throughout to help open cases to show you merch were all very friendly and eager to help. If you're antiquing through New England, I definitely think this should be on your list!

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.

There are liquor store, cocktail, bakery and cafe, antique, alpaca, candy, gifts, and general stores. Lots of cool stuff. Antique shop is massive and there is lots to go through. I'm sure some people that like collectible and antique and vintage stuff would have a field day. General stores sells some local snacks, drinks and gifts. There are also some alpacas as well at the one section if the village. Overall cool place to visit to check out stores or if you want to take a quick break from driving. We did have to leave early because fire alarm went off which was a bummer. Also the bathroom wasn't working because they had some drainage issue.

We actually came in the grab a sandwich or something for lunch but there was nothing available. We asked but during our visit, the bar was closed where you can get some snack items. Looks like ice cream is there too, which was also closed. The llama's out back are cute. If you have some change you can buy them some feed. One of the stores sells Llama wool items which are very warm and cozy. I recommend getting some socks if you have cold feet in the winter months. I purchased some for a relative. The other stores sell jewelry, clothing, cheese and antiques. You can access one store from another inside the building. Public restrooms are available between the antique store and the cheese shop. A very large, dirt parking lot in front includes handicap spaces by one of the entrances.

Fair enough, but it's tough to do with tongs dropping in a tong-ful at a time, and one at a time takes ages. So I took a rough guess at what I have, and tried to make sure I overestimated what I had. They have a large gift section, and even a little corner for dog treats/gifts. I didn't order any food here, but noticed the baked goods they had for sale were the exact same 2 days in a row, so I don't know how fresh they would be. I'd have to eat one to be sure, but the selection was so limited. (Lemon cake, blueberry cake, and some banana bread).

Definitely worth checking out as well.
