The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and one of the best parts was that they're pet-friendly. They even gave our dog, Luna, a treat, which made the visit even more special. We ended up purchasing a beautiful ornament, and we were told it was handcrafted by a retired local couple. We always love supporting local artisans, and it made the ornament feel even more meaningful. The quality is excellent, and it's a keepsake we'll enjoy for years to come. Whether you're shopping for your own tree or looking for a unique gift, this is definitely a store worth visiting while you're in Estes Park!

It had a TON of different things (including football, baseball, etc memorabilia). We got an ornament and they offered to customize it for free.

It was very hot inside the book store and some of the books were mixed into other sections and a…read morebit hard to find. When I had originally looked up this place (on Google Maps) it was telling me it was a "second hand bookstore" safe to say it wasn't. It was also very crowded (nothing the store could do about that though) and some of the workers seemed a bit annoyed, although I would too if I had to work in that heat. The only place where you could feel the AC was in the YA section. Most of the books were 2nds or 3rds of a series and I had a hard time finding any firsts of a series. Also some of the books look as if they are second hand and are damaged?? The book I bought was slightly damaged I did not realize it until I was in the car but I'm sure I can try to fix it. It is a beautiful store though and I'm sure the atmosphere would feel way better if it did not feel so hot in there lol.

We actually found this place quite by accident. Our AI GPS assistant did not give us correct…read moredirections so we ended up on a road where I was looking to turn around and it happened to be the parking lot of this rock shop. There is a pond with geese and we saw kids feeding them so we decided to check it out. The setting is serene. The stream/river runs gently by the rock shop. The pond is right next door. There is a separate cafe and rest area. It all is very nice. There is seating for what looks like a lecture area. The rock shop: what an interesting place. It has tons (literally) of different rocks. Outside, there are unfinished rocks of different types and I guess you buy them to manufacture yourself. There are also decorative rocks for your yard. There are manufactured rocks inside the store. Some are really interesting and unique. It ended up being a very nice experience. I give it 5 stars because there is a place outside where you can sift for gold and other valuable rocks just like in the old days. The kid had a blast doing that and she was thrilled to find something "valuable" (though not gold). She kept asking how much her rocks were worth. I am sure that she will remember this experience, which was quite unplanned.

The Southern Toy Depot was a pleasant surprise for my partner and I when we went on our near-regular monthly visit to Estes this past Thursday. What immediately drew us in was the service. One of the owners of the store was there and extremely welcoming, knowledgeable, and friendly. What engaged us to start off was his interest in He-Man and She-ra, which was clear by his extensive appealing collection lining the store. He was also actively shelving some of the more unique Funko I've seen. What hooked us the most though was his wood-working. He had toys of all shapes, sizes, and price points that any child or adult could love. Him and his team work with specially ordered wood to make trains, garbage trucks, log loaders, baby rattles, pull-along toys, fishing poles (and fish), toy swords, magnets, ornaments, building blocks, and even a full glam beauty set that includes lipstick, blush compact, mirror, perfume bottle, and more (all made out of wood of course). I bought a very reasonably priced desk sized rocking horse and toy dinosaur, and my partner bought himself a very cool painted tank, but it were up to us and a bigger budget we would have walked away with some of the more impressive toy vehicles. Don't get me wrong though, the value was incredible and worth it! Please consider stopping by when you're in town!
