    Mast General Store was a place I was told by my Airbnb host that I had to go to in town. While the town was small, this store made up for it. This store is amazing. It's enormous. And it literally has everything one could think of or imagine. I think when I heard the word, "General Store" I was thinking more hokey things and not really items I'd want, but man, I ended up spending a lot of money here! The main level is clothing, men's, women's, children's, and off to the side is their shoe area. The top level is their outdoor/camping area. But the bottom floor is where I struck gold. They their candy, popcorn, and so many gifts here. I stocked up on all my Christmas presents here. They had mugs, cooking supplies, spices, postcards and a ton of other useful stuff. The items were really great quality too. Everything here was perfect from the items they sell to the friendly customer service of their staff. I'm not sure if I'll ever be back in that area, but if I am, I'm going back to Mast General Store.

    The Mast General Store, located on Main Street in Waynesville, NC, has been opened since 1883 WOW! They carry a huge selection of Mountain apparel including name brands, Mast General Store branded items, and locally made items. Name brands include Patagonia, Yeti, Oboz, Lulu-B, The North Face, Columbia, etc. The store has two entrances, one of which brings you into the main shoe and travel item(s) side, while the other door opens up to the main apparel and specialty side, both sides connect via an open door way once inside the store. The Apparel ranges from outer wear to Knifes and locally homemade jams, such as Bear Jam made from different berries... ohh so good! I love that they have "Mast General Store" branded items, which are perfect for remembering your trip. So even If you aren't in need of mountain gear, you can always find a souvenir for your trip. I bought a t-shirt and baseball cap and love them both! They typically have mark down prices so look for the red markdown price on the tag, I was able to get a baseball cap for $12.50 and my shirt was discounted too. They also carry "Waynesville" branded items. If you have children be aware they also have a Mercantile and Candy floor, located downstairs, with various candies, teddy bears, etc... so good luck haha! Even if you aren't looking to purchase anything, this place is great for browsing and window shopping as they have so many uniquely cool items and I love it's been around since 1883 . They are open Monday-Saturday 10am-6pm and Sunday noon-6pm, so the next time you are in Waynesville be sure to stop in and check it out.

    This is a great shop to stop at for everyone. If you are a hiker, tourist, or just a traveler, this place is a must stop when in Waynesville. With everything from hiking gear and footwear this place has just about everything other than food. The staff was friendly and helpful, and there always seems to be a sale. Stop in and grab whatever you might need.

    Yes, another Mast Store. You know, the general store with the big barrels of candy. Normally you can peer in the window of one of these places and see, the colorful displays of sweet treats. This particular location has clothing and shoes on the first level, with the candy and kitsch in the basement. Always a blast to browse through that stuff. When you're downstairs you can hear every creak and footstep from above, making this the world's creakiest floor. As usual, well-staffed with friendly people and a clean bathroom. The kids found some pretty collectible minerals/rock for 59 cents each; they came with little cards describing what they were and where they came from. Yes, I'm shaking my head too, that I actually paid money for rocks. Yes, it's touristy and I can't believe they haven't hit a market saturation point but they really do hire some helpful employees!

    The boys are happy campers! Such good memories here

    I have such good memories at this store! Reasonably priced clothing, candy is priced a bit high. But so worth it to make memories with my boys. The squeaky creaky floors make the experience. This store is Waynesville! It's a must stop
