Squeeeee! This place is AMAZING…read more I seriously cannot believe I've never been in/heard of this place after driving by it so often... and me being in love with all things old and chippy. The place is huge! It is pretty well organized. There is furniture throughout. There is a section for bathtubs---beautiful old clawfoot bathtubs. Oh yes, there is a section of just clawfeet too! There are tons of old doors, windows, reclaimed wood, cabinets, hardware, and so much more. I could spend hours in that place. And don't worry, I will. It was pretty cold in there today and my partner in crime was being a baby so I had to dillydally and linger less than I wanted to. The prices as marked were highish, but they are probably negotiable. I've got my mind on several pieces so I will update when I go back.

A great stop in the Adirondacks, Red Canoe Antiques is rich with history and rich with a ton of old…read morestuff! Naturally I had to seek out all of the antique shops while I was in Saranac Lake for the weekend, and Red Canoe was one of the ones nearby (just 10 minutes from where we were staying in town). The antiques are housed in what was once a speakeasy, and a themed restaurant, which is very apparent when you step inside! The walls and ceilings still carry the remnants of the old restaurant that used to reside here, and the building itself is on the National Register of Historic Places, so it's such a cool sight in itself. As for the shopping experience, it was marvelous! There's tons of furniture pieces here, plus an assortment of smaller items, including china/glassware, dining sets, photographs and pins, jewelry, and some of my favorite things - antique Adirondack souvineers! The larger pieces (and even some of the smaller ones) are a bit on the pricey side as far as antiques go, but I'd have to say it's likely because of the location - they often don't get too much traffic during off-seasons (as told by one of the employees I spoke to) and a ton of the things I found here are pretty hard to come by as far as antique standards go. I actually left this place with some goodies! I found an incredibly cool glasses holder (not a case, it's velvet on the inside and only holds the lenses upright) from the 50's, and a vintage Saranac Lake penant. A friend of mine also ended up taking home a cabinet with still-working lock and key drawers for an incredibly great deal, and we were able to load it up into her car the next morning before leaving town (they were only a few minutes late to opening, but it wasn't an issue as the neighbors spotted us outside and offered to call one of the workers if they were getting to be incredibly late). All in all I had an excellent experience here. Only one of the two shops I was able to visit while we were in town (but I'll definitely be back!), I'd say it's probably one of the best shops to visit in the area. With a good variety of antique mountaineer goodies, it feels so good to be able to bring something home from this shop. The memories are priceless!

As the store has a nifty name and swell sales - the staff was at least 2 short, way too cool and unhelpful. When I approached the hefty lady at the counter, she acted in her voice like it was the most obscene thing I could have done! She pointed, murmered and wave us uff.. guess she couldn't know that Yelp Elite was in her shop. It's a great experience. Expect the staff to be out back smoking cartons of cigarettes, constantly opening ancillary doors with cold drafts, and using time to move old cabinets around instead of actually making good reports with visitors and travelers.
