Warm Glow Candle company has been “glowing” since 1995. We are located on I-70 exit 145 in Centerville, Indiana. We are a destination worth traveling for! The candle store is a vast area of 22,000 sq.ft. and is the home of the BIG candle that is part of the building. Warm Glow serves as a shopping mecca and a unique tourist attraction. We have the best restrooms on I-70 and we are pet friendly.

Nestled in the center of the store is the Stone Hearth Cafe. We also feature local craft and artisans.

Beautiful items but pricey. Some things you can get at Old Tyne pottery much less. You are paying for the atmosphere. If you don't mind paying for atmosphere, then it is a nice stop.
3. Huddleston Farmhouse

Historic home where westward travelers would stop.
Reviewed By ChiefGuru - Decatur, Indiana
The historic 1841 Huddleston Farmhouse is located on the Historic National Road (US 40) at the western edge of Cambridge City. The Huddleston Farmhouse Inn once served travelers along the National Road, traveling from Cumberland, Maryland to Vandalia, Illinois. It was owned by former-Quaker John Huddleston who, with his wife Susannah, and 11 children, offered travelers lodging, cooking materials, and a place for their horses to rest for the night. The house is three stories high and sits on about 78 acres. Also on the property are a spring kitchen, smoke house, and two barns. Indiana Landmarks purchased the property in 1966. The house, barn, and other outbuildings have been restored and serve as combination museum and eastern regional office of Indiana Landmarks. The property easily accessible from Highway 40, with parking available. It is open to the public for tours (by appointment) and special events (weddings, receptions, reunions, meetings, dinners), including hearth suppers with food of the period cooked in the fireplace. Visiting this site is a step back in history to visualize and learn how pioneers faced and preserved over period challenges. Just walking the property, touring the buildings and seeing the architecture, decorations and furnishings of the time is excellent. Such a wonderful thing that we are preserving our heritage for future generations to enjoy. The lowest level has several interactive exhibits to teach more about the history, for example one allows visitors to hear from covered wagon travelers about the conditions on the road, the food they ate, and where they found lodging. You can also see road surfaces over time, from a bumpy mud track dotted with tree stumps to brick, concrete, and the current asphalt. You can also sit in the front seat of an old roadster and listen to a film describing the Historic National Road West. This is an excellent place to visit with the entire family to learn about an intriguing part of our national history.
4. Abbott's Candy Shop

Reviewed By Anita K - Hagerstown, Maryland
Abbotts Candy Shop is located in Hagerstown, Indiana. It's a great mom and pop establishment that's been around since 1890 - handed down through generations. The candy is absolutely delicious, homemade in the shop. It's a little pricey but it should be. Every delicious bite is worth the price. They greet you with a sample of their famous caramel, their biggest seller - delicious. One can watch the candymaker's in progress. Abbotts also have sugar free candy. The shop is located in an old Presbyterian Church. What a neat place - wonderful and friendly employees. The candy can be ordered online.

The Dougherty family is also happy to announce that we are beginning the development of a new grove of apple trees.

of course you are correct to be concerned but what about all that anger. calm down a little bit. we locals have always loved this orchard and in recent past the family has suffered loss of parents and grandparents alike and if not mistaken the orchard almost closed at one point. they are a new generation trying to retain and maintain. if you were truly concerned in stead of venting and threatening on line why not speak to someone on the spot? why not offer to help rather than "blame". why not have a positive effect yourself ? did you offer your knowledge and experience? did you bother to ask questions at the time? sounds like not. this young generation of owners have been through a lot and are making a valid attempt at managing. they have a great future there and could have used your support rather than backstabbing. the community is behind them 100% and we want the family to know that !
