An easy stop for river traffic

A Real Local Store

The kind of place you can count on.

We've been the corner of Howardsville since 2004 — a working store for working people.

Stop in for cold drinks, snacks, and the basics before heading to the river. Locals grab their lottery tickets and a made-to-order sandwich. Kayakers, campers, and fishermen fill up on gas, grab ice, and stock the bait. No frills, no fuss — just a friendly stop that's been here for the long haul.

Inside the store — coolers stocked with beer, including Budweiser, Bud Light, Coors, Busch, Modelo, and Bold Rock Cider.
