Kind of cheesy gifts that look like they had been on the shelf for some time. There are significantly better places. I couldnāt find anything unique at all. Would recommend one of the many others in the area. I am actually surprised this place is still in business.

I would recommend a clean sweep of the stock floor to eliminate dated inventory. Specific memories of half filled snow globe souvenirs...

The gift shop is well curated and has something for everyone under $10. There were a couple of more expensive items like a $15 Abe Lincoln hat (buy it) but still reasonably priced. There is also a pressed penny machine so remember to bring 1 penny and 2 quarters for those of you...
