the general store at smith mountain lake

This store seems to go on forever, with a little bit of everything. There is truly something for anyone, from quilting to pottery to fun little knick-knacks. The prices were reasonable, and the staff was very friendly. Give yourself a little extra time to just meander so you don't miss some treasure that is just around the corner.

This general store does not have things as I imagined a la Little House on the Prairie, but it sure does have a lot. Quilting supplies, personalizable gifts, lovely pottery from Emerson Creek and elsewhere, candy, baby clothes and toys, jewelry, all sorts of stuff. Nice stop.

Excellent friendly staff. Great atmosphere. A variety of unique gifts. I did not buy much due to higher costs.
