If you are looking for brands like Salt Life and Huk this is a good store to check out. A little hard to get around if there are shoppers but overall a nice store.

Extremely rude. My husband and I walked in and shopped around for awhile before we were asked to put a mask on, which we were happy to do. The lady handed me a mask, snatched the drink out of my hand and told me I wouldnt get it back until I put the mask on. We were happy to abide by any business owners policy but I refuse to shop in a store with such unhappy and rude employees.

Very nice and helpful staff, they gave me a dinner recommendation that was on point and even took the time to walk to the door and show my exactly where to go. Really great selection and expected prices. They even had quite a bit on sale when we were in. 40% off. We made a purchase. Id definitely return. Thank you!

Not sure what has happened here but I feel like its due to excessive fear , masking and coronavirus . They seem afraid for you to be there and then overreact. For instance , we were the only people In the entire store . They did not make us feel welcome but yet made a big deal about us not initially wearing a mask which seemed unnecessary since once again we were the only 2 people in the store. We walked In Planning to purchase a few items which
