Jacksons General Store — Local services in Sylva

Are you looking for southern charm? You won’t find it here. Being a local, living in the area, I’ll be the first to tell you it isn’t easy to make a living. This store doesn’t care about your story or your struggles, park in there over sized spacious lot and they will have you towed immediately. Close to holidays and don’t have much? They don’t care. This store seems to be in cahoots with Swain collision (look up their ratings). They had no one in there store. It was 5 minutes until close and I went to grab a pizza for my family from Pie Times. The lot never had signs in the past that it was private. I was literally 10 minutes and the tow truck driver joked it only takes him 5 to get there. After discussing it with other locals, they seem to be enjoying towing people. Being local I will never shop here and I will tell anyone who asks about them to also boycott them.

I was able to visit the other day and was glad to be able to park in their parking lot located next to the building, I often have a handicap friend who loves to go into the store also but we have had a hard time getting parking, so it was very exciting to have a place to park which allowed her to come in! If you ever get the chance I recommend going into this store, there is so much to see, and a lot of love shared from the moment you walk...

We planned eating next door, then walking next door and checking the place out. Car towed from parking lot adjacent to Pietimes. JGS Owner says “our customers have complained that they don’t have anyplace to park. Said that the adjacent brewery and pizza place take all their parking. She said “ Pie Times and Innovation Brewing and been very nasty” Maybe if the owner didn’t double park their jeep, EVER SINGLE DAY, they may have enough parking and not to punish the customers over their dispute with the two local businesses next door. Very nice shop, probably the nicest in town. Will never get a penny from me. I will take every opportunity given to tell people to stay away from anyplace that doesn’t support local. Hope your...
