The host(ess) was fun, interactive and expressive. We loved seeing all the old brands and she really was like a shopkeep. What a collection! We were able to walk through some alone but she pointed out so much. Much bigger than it looks. She included the kids and didn't freak out with them there. - big kudos for that!

It doesn’t look like it would be too exciting from the outside! But once you step inside the doors, you get a whole new perspective of a general store in the early 1900s
What makes this so exciting and so much fun and so entertaining and knowledgeable is the tour guide Molly !! She did a fantastic job of taking us back in the past while entertaining us at the same time
