The Cider Mill

I love antiquing and junking so this place is great! Nice and large and plenty of selection. So… Why the three stars? I’d give ²⁄₃ of this place 5 stars and ¹⁄₃ of it 2. Some booths are fantastic filled will old furniture, crocks, glassware, wire bins, books, etc. all neatly presented. The other half is a mess– and when I say mess I mean you can’t walk through it. I’ve been about 5 times and usually find something great at a reasonable price. Worth checking out!

This used to be one of my «go to» places. However, we went recently and it seemed much more «country chic» than real antiques. So disappointed.

I guess this place is also called «Oh My Gosh», or something. They’ve expanded, to start out with: so go back, and revisit. Also, if you are into vintage Xmas stuff, get your butt over here. Lots of cool things. I picked up a slew of antique Xmas postcards that I’m going to turn into Christmas cards this year. Best thing: though I didn’t know it at the time, they all were cards sent to some family in Antrim NH. Some are a century old. Now I get to re-​purpose them, and send them off to my friends and family. How cool is THAT? Wicked cool!
One sad thing: there was a really great place that sold terrariums, and really bizarre stuff tucked up near the roof, and I think they are gone. Hook me up, if you know more about the place. I loved it.

This is my absolute favorite place to spend a day off or lazy Sunday. I enjoy the drive through the woods to get there and I find the employees very friendly. They always remember me as well as specifics that we’ve discussed before. I never leave empty handed. With so many vendors, there’s something for everyone. A few vendors are overpriced, but most are very reasonable. I’ve decorated much of my house with Cider Mill finds!

The only thing that could make this place better is if it was closer to home. After finishing off a mad tea party with a buncha loony Unilocalers, I was in the mood to shop. Thankfully, there was a magical leprechaun tour guide willing and able to give me a little tour ’round the place. (I’m lookin’ at you Kerri O.)
I could go round this place three times and still find stuff I missed. The prices are very reasonable and the wares quite diverse. Now I just need to remember how to get here so I can drag the BF.
Definitely a lovely diversion if you happen to be up and about this way.

It beats spending the day at the Mall anytime and you don’t have to break the bank for a fun day. They have a great selection of antiques and collectibles, purses, and jewelry. It would be nice if they had a little coffee shop or just a place to sit and have a cold drink. We had to leave before seeing the downstairs as we were very hungry. However we will be back.
