One of those stores that vacationers can't wait to return to each year, this store is located in an historic island home. Inside is tons of treasures and gifts, much of it handcrafted. The selection includes Christmas decorations, baskets, wreaths, cross-stitch, woodwork, birdhouses, dolls, knickknacks, potpourri, plants, garden statuary, birdbaths, shells and much more.

| Value: |  | Service: | | | | mail order | | By Judy on 8/25/2011 | | I recently placed an order by phone with the owner. My order was expertly packaged. It arrived exactly when I needed it. The owner was very helpful and very nice. She explained the process and followed through. I would do business with them again in a heart beat. Old Gray House has made another friend. | |

I enjoyed the path around the house with the island information and reading about the history of the house. I ended up finding several unique gifts for friends and family and (big bonus!) some pieces of a pattern of glass I collect. Imagine that! I enjoyed talking with the owners and the other shoppers. What a great place! | |

Stayed at the Cape Pines Motel which is right next door to this gold mine. Love the shells, history of family, preservation & facts of the sea and shells. Don't do what I did. Saw a shell necklace but didn't buy it -went back to get it next day & it was gone. They have one of a kind items you won't find in the chain stores. Can't wait to come back!!! | |

The history that has been incorporated into the display and walk around outside are one of the best on the island for local history and enviromental information. | |
