Customers say they're flooded with memories when they hear the creaking of the old wooden floors, see the old-fashioned candy and glass bottled sodas that they enjoyed as a child, and it brings a smile to their faces. The owner, Rita, remembers a time when coming to Downtown Elizabethton was something her family looked forward to when she was young, so being a part of making our little town stand out to this generation is something that's really special to her!

The Mast Store Annex is located in Valle Crucis, NC, about 2 tenths of a mile from the Original…read moreMast General Store. But it has a completely different layout, is smaller, and sells a different inventory. The building was built in 1909 by R.L. Lowe, a competing merchant. John and Faye Cooper preserved this location, officially opening it in 1982 because they needed more space for their growing business. The building has a much more open layout than the Original store and even sells ice cream outside! The Annex features a massive candy barrel room with hundreds of varieties of candies, from saltwater taffy to chocolates to old-fashioned hard candies. This location also carries more of the rugged outdoor wear, camping supplies, backpacking gear, and sleeping bags Because the two buildings feature completely separate inventory layouts, I didn't end up buying anything here. My arms were completely full with items at the original store, so I didn't go back for the rest of the stuff I wanted and just planned to get it at the other store instead. Once I got to the Annex and realized they didn't carry the same items, I almost drove back to the original store to get them, but ultimately didn't. Make sure to buy everything you want at whichever building you are at before leaving their parking lot!

The products here have always been of good quality and there's always a great selection. This store brand has always been a sort of a novelty in my opinion although the description is "general store" all but one location I have visited is very upscale and resembles more of a general merchandise retailer offering lots of clothing and outdoor supplies verses what the original intent was at its inception. It's a great place to browse and find something unique - the staff here was very friendly and engaging it's worth stopping in...

Seriously it's a cute little Yoda! This guy isn't doing any harm! Upon entering the store, there's plenty of great candy to choose from. Plenty of great sweets but many of the candy choices aren't too new. Overall prices weren't too bad at all but I did enjoy that they had those bugs in a sucker. I absolutely love the Retro theme inside as well! Overall, I thought it was a pretty casual place to check out.

I called asking if they sell melting chocolate that doesn't have to be tempered, but high quality. Unlike wilton melts that are synthetic and terrible. I came in and asked if it was "Gazebo Party and Gift" because it was the same address. The girl told me that they had taken over the shop and changed it to a chocolate shop. They had a ton of different gift baskets perfect for Christmas gifts. They had different kinds of melting chocolate, chocolate bars, treats etc. I'm glad I found this place. It was pretty busy. Yes it is pricey, but you get what you pay for.

How amazing that the owner, Jorita Clayton, of this lovely cake-supply shop has continued it's…read morelegacy in downtown Kingsport. As far as I know, it has been downtown for MANY years. Not only is she incredibly helpful, but she is a very sweet & will share any of her extensive knowledge with you. That is probably the best part. When I leave, I have learned something new every time. She offers a range of classes as well. She has kept the shop fully stocked with must-have items for both professional and amateur bakers and treat-makers. You can find things here that you just can't find anywhere else.{+ TONS of disco dusts, pearls dusts, Americolor food colorings, hard-to-find ingredients, and MUCH, much more} And if you can't find it, she will surely order it for you! She also carries a HUGE array of molds and has an amazing selection of Mercken's chocolate. If you are using any store-brand chocolate wafers for candy-making, I urge you to pay Gazebo a visit. I for one, am so grateful that we have this shop in our town, as my cakes and treats are always MUCH better with the amazing supplies I can purchase at Gazebo. Recommended to anyone I know.

They also had a beautiful selection of flowers outside that added to the charm of the place. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth a visit.
