The inside is filled with cool handmade and nautical-themed items. Some look like they're locally handmade while some look like they were probably purchased, sourced, or brought in. I saw some driftwood mermaids, some funny signs, a lamp filled with sea glass, tons of shells for purchase as a group or individually and various other items. What really catches your eye from the street is the large hewn wood slabs you can make a table or some furniture or decor items from. Most of them are pretty reasonable with 3ft by 5ft or so ones costing between $30-50 depending on the width.

I refinish furniture and windows. So I looked at a few and decided that I just have to come back. The pricing was perfect. I want to saw $10-$15 a window. Totally doable! The man outside was so nice. He greeted us and let us roam and take in the sights. There were also beautiful slabs of wood outsideZ perfect for anyone who does projects, especially if it involves epoxy. We then headed inside. A lot of trinkets and craft like items. There were some antique pieces of furniture as well. Just a little bit of everything. If you are heading towards VA BEACH or going in the direction to Cape Charles from VA BEACH you have to hit this place up. At least get out and walk around to stretch if it's not your cup of tea.

They express no opinion on the museum. There are actually some neat little historical things in Mathews. The Gwynns Island museum and the Mathews Maritime museum have them all. They have bits of things that have washed up on the beaches and stories about the pirates that got lost here and the soldiers who built forts here in the revolution. It's a neat little museum (they can arrange tours for groups of 8 or more...more people than that might not fit in the building) and it's worth a drive onto the island to check it out. The museum is only open April through October, only on weekend afternoons.

This is a fantastic little Museum if you enjoy artifacts, historical memorabilia, local history, and some very exciting times. Tom, the director, is a wealth of information and a lot of fun to just chat with. Even my 88 year old mother-in-law was excited about what was there, including some military and local history stuff, as well. It has some of the most unique artifacts and fossils that we've ever seen, and a lot of them. For a small Museum, we were there, amazed, for two hours, and never got bored. They even had a couple of books we could buy to continue our education, making the whole experience well worth the hour-long trip it took for us to get there from Williamsburg. Some of the artifacts they had there were 500 to 10,000 years old and up, and the museum is renowned for its 22,000 year old stone butcher knife, and a mastodon tusk segment and teeth all found together locally. They also had many items from early America. It was absolutely one of the most enjoyable museums we've ever been to. If you like stuff like that, then be sure to go out of your way to visit. Tell Tom hi for us!
