Very lovely shop. This was the first store we ended up stopping at in downtown Petoskey today…read more A few of their coasters and artwork is from City Bird in Detroit too, which was funny - I have been there before (and that's a nice shop as well). I bought a corgi pin for $2 here (I love corgis) and wanted some of the prints/artwork too, but they were a bit pricey. They also have earrings/jewelry and a nice selection of Petoskey and non-Petoskey related gifts. The only reason I'm giving it 4/5 stars and not 5/5 is because they obviously have a bathroom, and it says OUT OF ORDER, but my guess is that it's not (where else would the employees go?) and perhaps that's COVID-related ... which is fine, but maybe just put EMPLOYEES ONLY instead. We went next door to Grandpa Shorter's and the employee there recommended the public bathrooms to us, so we took a bit of a hike down the street to the lake instead (pro tip: next time just go next door to the bookstore, they have one in the basement!). So yeah, I was a bit disappointed by that ... I could be totally wrong on this speculation but I've seen other businesses do that too. Other than that, very nice shop and they have super cute stuff, so I'd return next time I'm in Petoskey.

I snagged a new book from a Michigan-based author (now also a NYT Bestseller) that I hadn't known had already come out and was tempted by so many more books! Definitely pop in here for a perfect vacation read!

This used/new bookstore has a delightful charm (complete with a dog in a chair, adorably sleeping during our visit), books stacked from floor to ceiling, and a certain ambiance that can only be achieved by the greatest used bookstores. After combing through the shelves, my other half grabbed a stack of books he couldn't leave without. It would have received a five star review, except you can only pay with cash. We had to pop over to the ATM to get enough cash for our total.

Speaking of kids, I'm not sure when they added it, but since the last time I personally was there they've added a nice screened in back-porch filled with kid friendly make-and-take crafts like paint your own pottery, wood cuts, etc. And there's also a nice patio with seating and cute little pop up reading tents for youngins. Grab a coffee, pick up a good book, set your kids to craft or read, and enjoy a peaceful afternoon to yourself.
