They have a full yard full of different bins of rough stones of all kinds!! Whatever you're looking for the Rock Shed probably has it. We found some great pieces of South Dakota Rose Quartz, and some Botswana Agates for our jewelry that we make at home.

Our family recently was in Keystone, and sought to recreate an old-time photo made 30 years ago. Our original family of 4 had grown over the years to 10 (including 2 grandsons and 2 grand puppies.) We stopped at one place, and was turned away. We then went to Professor Samuel's Portrait Emporium, and Jason welcomed us, and set a time for our shoot even though he was closed for the season and we lucked out catching him at his shop. The hour it took to dress and stage our group of 10 was one of the most fun hours I have spent in my life. Jason was fun, witty and super professional. He had us laughing most of the time with costume and setting suggestions. It was like he knew our family, our sense of humor and most importantly that we were together on vacation to haver fun. Jason got the absolute best reactions, not only from the adults and little ones...but also our daughter's two dogs. We couldn't have had a better experience, nor a better keepsake of our family's time together. Jason has provided us a gift that will be talked about for years and years to come.

The Keystone Mercantile is a wonderful store, and the woman who helped us is Reta. Reta, a widow who was wanting to get back into life, waited on us and had a fantastic attitude about her job. And, she was not only knowledgeable, but actually counted our change back to us after our purchase, unheard of these days! She made the whole experience fun and the store is loaded with fantastic native american and western memorabilia. Definitely worth the visit!
