... has put a new face on a familiar town landmark. The shop
which specializes in gas & wood stoves and many artisan
and gift items, is located in the historic former home of
the Salvation Army.
The
building is one of the oldest buildings on Gravenhurst's Muskoka
Rd. Built in 1885, it has a long history to be proud of, serving
the community for over a century. The building is one of the
few to survive the great fire of Sept 23, 1887, when all the
buildings south from Harvey St. to Sharpe St.on both sides
of Muskoka Rd. were destroyed.
A visit to the shop is a pleasing experience for the senses.
Quiet classical music from the Solitudes Series of Nature
CDs plays from the corner while the delicious scent of aromatherapy
and candles wafts gently throughout.
