Lots of wood carved items and photo opportunities with Bigfoot. Atmosphere - Huge cool place, especially if you are into Bigfoot, Sasquatch. Last year, they did a good job with marketing; added flags, more merchandise outdoors to entice drivers to stop by. Parking on the side of the road, yet still safe; less safe parking across the road. Clean bathrooms (outhouses), hand sink, soap, and paper towels. Open 7 days a week. Service - Everyone was friendly. Price - Tourist prices. Owner Suggestion - Congrats to the Carlson family for 41+ years and all your success and your new marketing. :) Can I suggest a website?

Most of the employees were helpful and in good spirit. There was however one employee who cussed at me and threatened me in front of my family and others customers over a misunderstanding. Foul language and aggressive behavior is not ok and that is something that I will not tolerate. I asked to speak to the manager but was told he was on vacation and that he was not going to be of any help on assisting me with this matter. I asked why and I was told by a second employee that this behavior is viewed as acceptable by the manager. I am choosing to write a review so that everyone knows what could happen if you are planning on stopping by. I will never return and I will advise others in the area not to do so as well.

This place has lots of Humboldt "stuff"... stickers, souvenirs, etc. They have a big "home bar" section. Lots of different kinds of candies, lots of different things for the kitchen. I bought a couple of bags of cookie mix for Christmas presents among other things. They also have a large wall of food items, from companies in Humboldt County, including bagel toppings from Los bagels, marinara sauce from Tomaso's. , (I don't know if this is the same Tomaso's that ran the tomato pie restaurant or not...) and lots of other things. Prices are reasonable, and everybody I dealt with was beyond friendly. This is a great little store. Thanks.

Shelter Cove General Store is conveniently located and you pass directly by it when entering the…read moretown of Shelter Cove. It's a great place to pick up anything that you realized that you may have forgotten or to restock on anything you may need during your stay in Shelter Cove. They really have all the essentials, which is nice and we visited here a couple times during our most recent stay in Shelter Cove. The town of Shelter Cove is a small coastal town so wherever you are staying in the area, this general store is easy to get to. As we pulled up, they had fresh vegetables and fruit for sale outside the store. We were warmly welcomed as soon as we entered the store and everyone was very friendly. The store is on the smaller side, although they were well stocked and had everything we were looking for. The store was clean and really well organized. I really liked that it was very easy to find everything that we were looking for. They have bear canister rentals as well as trail information if you are hiking the Lost Coast Trail. The Lost Coast Trail stretches about 25 miles along the coast and Shelter Cove is where people start or end this trail. People tend to come here (by car or plane since they have a small runway) to have a nice relaxing weekend on the coast or to hike the Lost Coast trail. If you are doing the latter and have forgotten anything, this is a good place to stop. They have a gift shop next door with items from many local artists and craftspeople and it's a great place to get unique souvenirs. An all around excellent general store to meet your needs while visiting the beautiful Shelter Cove area!

Gave zero Fs about 4 stranded, out-of-town customers:…read moreShelter Cove is extremely remote. The nearest place to get food or any provisions is about 1.5 hrs away along crazy windy roads. At 7:29 four cars pulled up to the only in-town store, which closes at 7:30. I was one of them, needing to get baby food and diapers for my 1-year-old. Nope. The clerk literally shut the door in our faces and left. Technically, she's in the right--7:30 is closing time. But it's also an obvious F-u to anyone who looks different or looks like they are from out of town, no matter how much they need the tiniest bit of kindness or hospitality. Shelter Cove is a beautiful place with some very harsh people.

The cutest spiritual gift shop in Garberville, California…read more Despite doing this road trip multiple times, I've never stopped in Garberville before. I was surprised to see they have a decent downtown strip filled with cute local stories and even a pastry shop. One of my favorite stores on this street was Blue Moon Gift Shop. As someone with grandma hobbies, I was in absolute awe at their bead collection. Anyone who enjoys making jewelry needs to visit stat. They have isles and isles filled with beads of every color and size. The rest of the shop is filled with unique crystals, spiritual goodies, art, and stationary. I purchased a small pearl ring made by a local jeweler that is now a favorite in my collection. This spot is worth stopping for! Especially if you enjoy art and locally made items.
