Outdoor activities not really your thing? Would you rather be browsing around in a quaint country shop or avant-guard boutique? Jim Thorpe and the surrounding area is perfect for just that. We like to think of our little village as a cross between the 90's strange TV show Twin Peaks and the 60's classic based in the fictional town of Mayberry. (You know the one)

You can pretty much tell from that description what kind of stuff you can find here. Our shops range from quaint country shops to truly bizarre boutiques- a mirror image of our townsfolk. If you would like to venture out to the bigger stores we recommend Country Junction, the world's largest general -store about a 15 minute drive. Or bigger still- the Crossings Premium Outlets-a huge outlet complex with designer sportswear, gifts, jewelry and much more. It is about a 40 minute drive from Jim Thorpe.
Here's a sampler of whats in town (in alphabetical order):

Big Creek Vineyards
27 Race Street
The Strohlein family vineyard is located in Kresgeville, Pa on the southern face of the Pocono escarpment in the valley of Big Creek. The soils are a chimera of decomposing glacial drift and local slate and shale. Like the natural history of the area, their wines are unique and full of character. Be sure to stop and say hello to Domenic and taste some of his family's wonderful local wines.

Blue Mountain Sports and Wear
A great shop that does bike and kayak rentals in spring, summer and fall and cross country, downhill skis and snowshoes in winter. The place to go for bike gear. Authorized specialized dealer. Trail maps, shuttle service.

Chatelaine

Elaine has been here in Jim Thorpe for years. All quality merchandise from a classy lady!

Country Cottage
37 Race Street

Dugan's
60 Broadway
Dugan's is a "Mom & Pop" newsstand and a convenience store. They carry most daily needs like milk, bread, patent medicines, and nonperishable foods. They have film, disposable cameras, camera batteries, and premium film developing. In addition, hallmark greeting cards, gift-wrap, ribbons, and a few surprises. This store has been in the Dugan family for years. Jim and Jack always have the latest town gossip.

Everything Nice
41 Susquehanna Street
Everything Nice, located in the Hooven Mercantile for nineteen years, reminds customers of an old-time general store. They carry everything from Dept. 56 Snow babies, a full line of Yankee Candles to .10¢ marbles. But everyone’s favorite is the 1960s six piece Monkey Machine Band playing music for only .25. It must be a nice shop with a name like that!

The Gem Shop
37 Broadway
Located directly across from The Inn-another mainstay in town. While other shops come and go, a few, like this one, seem to thrive. There must be a reason.
