Tranquil shop surrounded by a lovely wildflower garden - it really doesn't get better than this. This gal spends the off season scouring the planet for great stones and creating beautiful jewelry. She makes incredible use of local stones as well, agates, petoskeys, etc. Astonishing quality and service - I go in there wearing a ring my father bought me almost 20 years ago and they insist on cleaning it for me. They remember their clients and the pieces they've sold them. The jewelry itself is utterly beautiful - people stop me on the street all over the world wanting to know where I got my ring - I wish they could all come here. Such beautiful pieces in all price ranges, and amazing custom work too. Becky recreated a ring my great grandfather brought back from Egypt for my dad with a new stone and a "matching" womens version when my father was remarried - incredible quality and so beautiful. If you are looking for fantastic and personal service, absolute quality and distinctive jewelry that you'll wear the rest of your life, you must, absolutely must, head to Becky Thatcher's.

We always hit Cherry Republic (which is down the street) and then, while my husband let's the kids run around in the (beautifully redone) park across the street - I head to Imagine That to take it all in.

(You know what I'm talking about, fellow moms ;). The shop is beautifully curated. You know that whoever does the buying for this place puts a tremendous amount of heart into the items they select. There are seasonal items like graduation gifts, Mother's/Father's Day presents, and even Christmas ornaments that are perfect souvenirs to remind you of beautiful Glen Arbor in all its summertime glory when you're putting up your Christmas tree in December. They have home decor, coffee table books and a nice selection of candles. They also carry beautifully designed jewelry and a stylish selection of scarves. Imagine That is a small shop, but with its charm and splendor of goods - I always manage to get lost. :).

When a prong on my wedding ring broke and the stone fell out, Will repair that quickly and inexpensively and I am not exaggerating when I tell you I love the setting even more than I have for the last 20 years.

I really cannot speak highly enough about this pretty little store, it's beautiful collection of talented unique jewelry and a lovely kind gentle friendly informative patient owner.

Way to pick up a great gift for a rock lover…read more Stumbled across this business while on a touristic endeavour. If you are someone who has a fascination with stones (not limited to crazy rubies or emeralds, but also the kind magpie-humans swoop on in nature), you need to check this out. They've raised the bar for the amateur rock-lover by making intricate trinkets from nature available, at a wide price range. I found their petoskey stone collection particularly creative. For example, there were cute mini bears carved out of petoskey stones (the final product was about 1cm across) for $5, and even petoskey stones in the shape of Michigan. For those who don't know, petoskey stones are Michigan's state stone, and are in fact fossils of corals formed by ancient glaciers moving across Michigan. The store's collection included more than just petoskey stones, to more sophisticated larimars (white and aquamarine in colour), kaleidoscopic chrysocollas, and more! Stones that were strung on necklaces or earrings tended to be more expensive than just the stones themselves. There were also DIY kits, such as petoskey stone polishing kits which include an unpolished petoskey stone ($8). I saw a similar kit selling for more $ at Point Betsie's gift shop, so this place seems to have reasonable prices. I didn't buy something here because I had already picked up some trinkets before seeing this shop, but I would have totally come here first if I'd known about it then. In spite of that, service was so cheery and helpful, and the products were so charming, that I felt compelled to write a review.

My daughter calls it the Toto. Kids race to this spot for tiny classic toys, like rubber balls, silly putty, cap guns, toy dolls or ponies, and children's jewelry. They used to sell loads of candy, but have minimized that selection to focus on things like M-22 t-shirts, and North Face jackets. The Sun Bum sunscreen is some of the only you'll find in town, but it smells divine- lightly like a coconut/banana. The swimsuit selection is ample- this year I packed our family of four to come up here but somehow my own bikinis did not make it up. I was quickly able to choose 2 bikinis by Reef, with my size (M) in stock. Joy! In and out in ten minutes. The store also deals in Murdick's Fudge, which is a must-taste by all tourists (I swear by Rocky Road or Maple Nut). Did your sunglasses fly off the boat? They have Panama Jacks for sixteen bucks, polarized. A great spot to buy necessary outdoorsy replacements. Change is difficult, but the new owners have retained the playful spirit of the store while upgrading the merchandise!
