My wife and I visit about once a month. We always find good deals even unique treasures. We use this time to get out of the house because we enjoy yard sale,flea markets and antique stores. This place has it all. Plus A/C in the summertime.

I have been here many times planning my travel so that I can shop here. The Depot is divided into stalls filled with lovely displays full of collectible antiques. It is a beautiful place to visit and shop. The shop owner/manger plays my favorite music to shop by, Nora Jones, Michael Buble and other artists in the genre. It's cool and inviting, spotlessly clean, just a wonderful place to shop for that item you wanted or didn't know you wanted until you saw it displayed in such a creative way.

No longer in Monroe now in much smaller location in Milledgeville. Hodge Podge that is now in the old location in Monroe is only one floor and is too upscale and lacks the character and the good stuff that used to be there.
