It is a great place to get lost in with what looks like a bazillion items you didn't know you needed, creatively stuck in many rooms with really narrow aisles. I thought I was only in there for about 10 minutes, but relatives outside had to send in Search and Rescue after I disappeared for 4 days.

I always enjoy a trip to the General Store. It has unique gifts. Worth a trip

Everything you need for home improvements and everything you never knew you wanted!
We are located in downtown Black Mountain, NC, and occupy three historic buildings dating from the 1920s (one used to be the 5-and-10 and one used to be the drug store). We are still a working hardware store, with all the products and services you would expect from a top-of-the-line hardware chain. In addition, however, we carry a number of hard-to-find items not just in hardware and tools, but also in housewares, toys, and outdoor living. Come in and see for yourself what an old timey hardware store looks, smells and feels like.
