A better place to stop and stretch your legs. I stopped here while roadtripping from South Georgia to Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge this past week, husband & three kids ages 12, 7, and 3 in tow. On the outside they had the main building with the infamous goats on the roof, and a small fenced petting/feeding opportunity area wrapped around the side of the building. In front of the main building were a few adirondac chairs on the porch, a couple benches and a fire-pit, behind the building another very small building or two where they sell the ice cream you'll read about in earlier descriptions/reviews. Inside the first area of the main building you'll find small batch jellies and jams from small local companies, off-end candies, a refrigerated area with artisan cheeses and such and some typical on-the-road snack items. To the right is another section of the store hosting old-timey toys like wooden rubber-band guns, slingshots, and cork pop shotguns, a display with some beautiful crystals made into pendants on necklaces, and things like postcards and such. Another room boasts a very small game-room area and one more about the same size has local art within. I'd love to say we spent a ton of time really checking this place out and enjoying all the little things it has to offer but we didn't as weren't trying to spend a strenuous amount of time here and primarily because while not hot inside it was very stuffy and my toddler suffered a pretty tough asthma attack inside and we had to leave pretty abruptly as I had left his inhaler in the car. We did purchase a few cute postcards, a rubber band gun for our nephew (the eldest of the three kids) and stop for a few photo ops with the kitties before then. Sadly, we didn't get to taste the ice cream or feed the goats (to my daughters dismay) but we will likely make another stop back through the next time these "Goats-on-the-roof" cross our path. ;)
