Love the cement outdoor pieces! I bought a cute pig with wings and my husband got his very own Yeti, got the Yeti home and painted it, it looks awesome. The prices are very reasonable to. Going to come back for more pieces. The copper weathervanes are truly beautiful!

The Ogunquit Trading Post is always a fun place to poke around with everything from jewelry, souvenir keychains and lapel/cap pins, T-shirts, and sweatshirts to refrigerator magnets, postcards, home décor, and much more. The shop carries Minnetonka Moccasins for the whole family. There are Maine products such as balsam fir pillows. In my walk down the first aisle, I saw a small one that would good for a suitcase or drawer sachet. Over the years, I’ve purchased a number of things here, including sweatshirts, a T-shirt, a keychain, postcards, earrings, a lighthouse cap tac, and a dozens of refrigerator magnets of states and Canadian provinces I’ve visited to have quite a map going on the front of the refrigerator at home. The prices on the souvenir clothing are great. And, the merchandise is of very good quality. I have a couple of sweatshirts bought a few years ago, and they’re in like-new condition. This is definitely a place to shop for Maine souvenirs. I rate Ogunquit Trading Post at 5.0 and highly recommend shopping here. If you found this review helpful, please click THANK below.

Cole’s Corner is a country store-type gift shop that has booths for about 44 vendors and crafters. The shop had everything from jewelry, placemats, and hot pads to serving bowls, home décor items, soaps, and more. One line of merchandise I’d never seen before was ceramic pottery from Boleslawiec, Poland. There are three well known factories there: Ceramika Artystyczna, Zaklady and Wiza. Ceramika Artystyczna is the most-famous maker of hand painted stoneware from Boleslawiec. And, stoneware made by Ceramika Artystyczna is of the reputedly the highest-quality and most-exquisite of the three. The ceramics were very colorful and in small patterns. Most designs were in small geometric patterns with blue as the predominant color. Décor items included country, coastal and primitive styles. The shop was very well lit ~ much better than some others in the area. A word of caution: The shop owner does not allow photos of the building outside or the displays inside the shop. I rate Cole’s Corner at 5.0. If you found this review helpful, please click THANK below.

My son and I were on our way to walk the dog at Wells Beach on this cold February day. We asked a clerk in Reny's where to get coffee and she pointed us to R&R. Not only did we get coffee and delicious cannolis at the cannoli bar, we went back after our beach walk for lunch. Two hearty sandwiches with fresh ingredients that we ate at a table in the back of the store. They have an amazing selection of chocolates, as well as the cannoli bar, the sandwiches, and courteous service. This is a hidden treasure for sure.
