Our wedding reception (not the ceremony itself) was held at The Gaines Estate in August. We booked…read morethe venue from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. for a brunch reception and were told we could arrive an hour early to decorate. I had attended a wedding here years ago and remembered it being beautiful, so I had high expectations. Unfortunately, our experience was nothing like what we expected. We paid $4,044.80 for mediocrity and insolence. In April, I paid for the venue over the phone, yet we were never given a contract or even a receipt. During our reception, William "Bill" approached me and accused me of never paying. Imagine being accused of not paying for your wedding venue while your guests are still there. It was embarrassing, insulting, and completely avoidable. He only believed me after I pulled up my bank transaction and proved it. The lack of communication between Bill and the event coordinator, Allyson, was obvious from the start. They frequently contradicted each other, we were told things were included that weren't, and the result was unexpected charges and unnecessary stress on our wedding day. Trying to communicate with Allyson beforehand was like pulling teeth. It often took multiple attempts to get answers, and several of those answers turned out to be wrong. We were promised comfortable chairs for our photo booth...they never appeared. We were told the projector and microphone were available, only to find out they'd cost nearly $100 extra, despite barely working. The microphone was practically useless, and the projector had no sound. Instead of enjoying my reception, I spent nearly an hour troubleshooting their equipment. When we finally got the video to play, I had to hold my phone against the microphone because the projector couldn't produce audio. We also felt rushed from the moment the reception began. We had been told we could leave our decorations overnight, but before the reception even ended, staff repeatedly insisted everything be removed by 3:00 p.m., even telling us, "Well, we can't do anything until you get your stuff out of here." That was never what we had been told. Unfortunately, our guests noticed the staff's attitude before we did. Two guests even left early because of how they were treated. That's completely unacceptable for a venue charging thousands of dollars. We specifically asked staff not to clear our plates because we were greeting guests. They ignored us and threw away our meals anyway. I managed to eat one carrot, a bite of crab cake, and one bite of chicken and waffle before my plate disappeared. The food itself was equally disappointing. The chicken tenders were dry and tasted old, and the waffles reminded me of a budget motel breakfast--I'm talking Econolodge, not even Best Western. Guests received two tiny, stringy tenders, half a waffle, and a small salad. I had specifically requested the nuts be left out because of allergies, but they ignored that request. They at least warned guests the salad contained nuts (so people wouldn't die), but then had the audacity to tell some guests no one had informed them about allergies. Ironically, the only decent chicken tenders were the appetizer tray we paid extra for because we knew the kids would eat them. They were noticeably better than the entrée version...but of course, I never got one, and if I had, it probably would've been thrown away before I had the chance to eat it. The crab cakes were acceptable, but nowhere near worth almost $5 each. To top it off, once condiments ran out, they were never refilled. Our reception felt like an inconvenience to the people being paid to host it. Your wedding celebration is supposed to be one of the happiest days of your life. A venue should help reduce stress...not create it. Sadly, The Gaines Estate did exactly the opposite, and I cannot recommend it to anyone planning an event.

Loved this store and will happily be back.

I stopped by here randomly on a rainy Sunday - drawn in by their adorable window display. (Shopping is perfect for when you can no longer enjoy the outdoor activities of the park!). I found a bunch of cute second-hand dresses around $15-30. Some from modern brands like Madewell and Free People, as well as some unique pieces from a couple decades past. Love the vintage picks! Great curation. They also sell jewelry and knick knacks from local artisans, which I appreciate. The shop manager was really warm and friendly, providing some styling tips. They also went out of their way to help me get some frocks on display. Fun shop! I'll be back.

Had some McCoy, vintage toys, coal script, tobacco signs and sewing stuff. We managed to spend a couple hundred bucks. Has a clean private bathroom as well. There was an item with no price and two more I valued at less than half of the marked price. They were able to reach both on phone and I bought the items. Pleasant atmosphere - bigger than it looking looks. Most things are priced about right to the lower side which is good. Some of the things priced too high are negotiable if you know what you are talking about. We will definitely stop here again. There is also a cute bed a breakfast across the street.
