1. Olde Brick House
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 23 reviews
Join us at the Olde Brick House for a lively chat; perhaps a sip of tea. As we stroll through the house, we venture to the Amish crafted bedroom set: crafted in Pennsylvania in a simple Shaker style with two-tone finish. These pieces are constructed to last a lifetime. Spread on the bed is a bright, cozy hand-quilted quilt with just a few pillows to make everything comfy. The bedside lamp has a tin punched shade and is sitting on a hand-crocheted doily that has aged a bit. A loomed throw, the pattern circa 1800, draped at the foot of the bed is ready for a quick nap or as another layer for a cold night. Above the bed a framed print of a folk-art townscape by Bonnie White radiates bright colors carrying you back to early times in a quiet town. The rocking chair beside the bed tells the story of many nights rocking a sweet child to sleep. On the floor is a hand-painted canvas floor cloth. This and other settings are spread throughout the house. We invite you to come and explore each one. There's so much to see and smell and enjoy! We're looking forward to seeing you soon.

What a great kitchen shop! HUGE inventory of everything you need for your kitchen, plus a good compliment of decorative plates, mugs, etc. It's a bit cramped because there's LOTS of stuff, but it didn't feel overwhelming of in disarray. If I lived near Waynesville this would be my go-to shop for anything kitchen. The staff person who was working was also quite helpful and very friend. Good job!

As a local, I frequent Barbers Orchard often, particularly their bakery. For folks visiting our wonder Smoky Mountains, you MUST stop in for a cider donut, some fresh apple cider, canned jams, or fresh apples to take home with you. When you step out of your car, you will smell the wonderful aromas of fresh baked pies, cookies, donuts, etc. This is a MUST on your destination list.
