Very beautiful visitor center. It reopened in 2025 after being closed for renovations and I have to…read moresay, the architecture is GORGEOUS with vaulted ceilings and large windows to let in the surroundings. There's wood paneling which helps you feel immersed into nature. There's an informational desk about the area, helpful for visitors newish to the area or those with questions. The gift shop is also accessible with the usual offerings of post cards, tchotchkes, and such. Do note that the restrooms are accessible outdoors at the side of the building. There's a pay area part of the center which is $5/18+, $2.50/7-17, free for 6 years old or younger, and family $15 for 2 adults and children 7-17 years old. They also honor veteran's disabled pass, WA state disabled pass, and senior limited income pass. It's definitely worth the admission, since there's a lot of exhibits explaining the geology of the area, the flora and fauna, the native peoples, and the later commercial and recreational uses of the area. There's even a place where you can walk into a huge mock up of Mt St Helens! Very fun. They have a short film playing about the eruption too. I didn't get to explore much outside as it was super rainy, but I saw a boardwalk trail out in the back. I did not see Mt St Helens due to the weather, but I'll be back when the weather is nicer!

The store was clean and organized. The prices of the items were comparable to other shops we had visited in and around Portland. Among the products, I loved their magnet wall full of unique designs. There were really nice stickers and postcards. After exploring the store for several minutes, we picked few magnets and stickers. Staff members were friendly and interacting with guests. The checkout was quick and easy. Highly recommend this store to anyone looking to do souvenir shopping in downtown Portland.

We were greeted right away and there a lot of fun items to choose from, I ended up getting a magnet and a three pack of spicy jellys that were specifically made in Portland. So many great options for souvenirs and I feel like I scored since there isn't any sales tax. I ended up using the jellys for my charcuterie board and it was a hit. This store is super friendly and didn't feel like they were upselling their products just because we're tourists.

They have a great selection of quality and stylish items. They also sell the popular Jelly Cat brand which my kids love. Very friendly staff. I've been in a couple times now where they have chances to get an extra discount off your purchase. I've bought a couple of Free People tshirts and many other miscellaneous items from here. I love to just go in and look around at all the beautiful inventory. The prices are fair, especially since the items are quality. This is not a dollar store by any means. The brands that are curated here are well known and established. Give them a look!

The store owner…read morewas so great last time helping me decide on a tea pot, so I was happy and excited to support a small business! Went in today and stood around and walked around for a solid 20 minutes without the shop employee even acknowledging my presence. Needless to say, I will not be spending money here again. A "hello" or "how can I help you" go a long way. I will be giving my money to Williams Sonoma instead of shopping small business at Hallstrom Home. I am so disappointed and truly hope they get it together and learn that building clientele is easy if you can manage to be a polite and helpful shop employee.

The gift shop, as expected, is well stocked with items concerning Mount St. Helens and the events of 1980. Lots of memorabilia scientific and colloquiel. More unexpectedly, the Mount St. Helens Gift Shop also seems devoted to all things Big Foot. They stock a larger selection of t-shirts, hoodies etc displaying Sasquatch than I've ever seen before. There is also a large (8'!)stuffed doll who is available for photos....unlike his corporeal cousins! There is also a smatering of other local items. We bought a jug of marionberry jam that comes with a top to make it a salt or pepper shaker when you finish off the jam.

And what a multifaceted jewel it is, too - like a dragonfly eye, or a glimpse of what a mantis shrimp might see. I got to spend time in the store yesterday, appreciate the delightfully curated offerings for sale, and to chat with the proprietor, Jillian - and I am so glad I did. I needed that dose of delight and energy, a joy to have in our town. As another, much younger resident of Cannon Beach said to me a couple of minutes after I walked out of HipNest, "More people need whimsy in their lives!" I am already looking forward to my next visit to my close-to-home whimsy dealer, and to selecting some treasures with which to decorate my own nest.

There was a few areas with books and even a clearance center. I had so much fun just a forty minute drive or so from home but hey I love this subject matter so if you're curious about Bigfoot/Sasquatch you gotta check this out. There's historical things all over and modern research also. The staff was super helpful the prices were competitive. I got a long sleeve tshirt on sale for $15. Regular tshirts were $25 I believe. They are cotton and well made.
