I always stock up on Birthday and Christmas gifts here. The owners are wonderful and make you feel at home the moment you walk in the door. They truly know how to run a great business!!

And the Iowa Rock N Roll Hall of Fame and the Amusement Park are right across the street. Like many other stores along this row, the merchandise appeals to the seasonal tourist that spends their hard earned money to get here. Browsing around Gab & Dab is fun and Gayle liked this place even more. And if we happen to be here later in the summer when the end of season sales are in full swing, so much the better.

Each year between 60 and 70 million walleye fry are hatched at this facility. My son and I love to come here every year. There's a neat aquarium in the lobby that's stocked with a variety of local fish. And depending on what's going on, many of the fish tanks on the floor are fully accessible for viewing. The DNR staff has always been very friendly and willing to explain almost anything about their jobs. Of course in a resort area such as this, there are many other options, such as Arnold's Amusement Park, swimming at Pikes Point, etc. But also this area is about the Lakes as natural resources and this place kind of grounds our entire experience here.

I often tell the owners that if The Hen House ever leaves town -- I'm outta here, as welI! The Hen House is my favorite shopping destination in Spencer. I also love to bring my out-of-town company to experience it for themselves, because it's tons of fun! They offer amazing seasonal items, baby gifts galore (ear of corn chew toy is my favorite staple gift), house wares, kitchen/dining, funking jewelry, pillos, lamps candles. . . Oh, and to receive a gift card from The Hen House is like finding a little lump of precious gold in your pocketbook.
