Mast General Store
Locals’ pickThe restored 1940s general store anchoring downtown's shopping blocks... creaky wood floors, cast-iron, camp goods, and about 500 barrels of old-fashioned candy in the back. Worth a wander even if you only leave with a paper bag of sweets. You probably will.

Lexington Glassworks Locals’ pick
Watch glass get blown right in front of you, furnace roar and all. It's a working studio on the South Slope, and you can grab a beer and pull up a bench while they work.
