Dan’l Boone’s Trading Post

Wonderful place with great antiques and new items. Prices are nice as well. They charged me extra for having a discover card but their items were great with solid prices, so I’m going with 5 stars.

For a place that’s stuffed to the gills, it’s quite meticulously organized. Which is pretty fantastic, actually.
Because with antiques and second-​hand shops, you often find one of two situations:
(1) Cheap prices at the cost of sorting through a total jumbled mess.
(2) Highly curated finds at collectors’ prohibitive prices.
This spot has the huge quantities and varieties you want, but with friendly-​enough prices and understandable categories.
You might imagine with Dan’l Boone being conjured there’d be more pelts and rusty rustics, but it’s more traditional antique store/​consignment shop fare — trivets, glasswear, cookie jars shaped like standing mixers, phones shaped like toilets — with an extra large tool section, some furniture, and a random weapons assortment. Boone-​y enough for me.

I hate the contraction, but I love this place.
Antiques, collect-​ables and the occasional piece of junk are crammed to the rafters for aisle after aisle. Really into old, cast-​iron trivets? Pick from a dozen. They have an excellent selection of stuff people like to collect. Prices are moderate for this kind of business.
