Hermit Hill Vintage - Saranac Lake (NY)

5 /5 Katie Santner: What a gem of a store! This family-owned antique shop is truly a treasure trove, filled with a wide variety of unique items—from vintage collectibles to absolutely stunning fine and antique jewelry. Every piece seems to have a story, and the entire space feels warm, welcoming, and full of character. Katherine and Chris are incredibly knowledgeable—they’ve been collecting their whole lives, and Katherine’s passion for jewelry really shines through. She and Chris were so kind and helpful when I stopped in to find a special maid of honor gift for my sister. With their guidance, I found the sweetest, most meaningful vintage bracelet that I know she’ll treasure forever. And I cant forget to mention Rosebud, their sweet dog, who was the friendliest greeter! She made the whole experience even more special. You can tell how much heart and hard work has gone into building this store. After everything local businesses have faced since COVID, it feels especially important to support small, family-run stores like this one. Shopping here isnt just about finding something beautiful—its about being part of a community and supporting people who truly care about what they do. Can’t recommend it enough if you’re in the area! I’ll definitely be back anytime I’m visiting ADK!

5 /5 A Gebbie: Lovely store with a wide array of antiques ranging from furniture and art to fine jewelry! Also bonus of sweet dogs to greet you when you enter - would recommend to anyone in the area!

5 /5 Mira Sping: This is one of my favorite vintage stores in the Adirondacks! Fabulous selection of things to peruse, and the owners are absolutely wonderful people. Truly a treasure trove of trinkets, jewelry, art, and other assorted vintage and antique items. Highly recommend stopping by or giving them a call- it’s worth the effort :)

5 /5 Gwen Isham: Since opal is my birth stone, as a treat to myself Id been looking for the perfect (unique and elegant) opal ring for some time. I found a gorgeous opal in a beautiful antique filigree setting that suits the stone perfectly. They have a great selection of vintage and antique rings, so it was a tough decision. Im already saving for my next purchase! Its a fun little store.

5 /5 Shia Bright: Both owners were such lovely people and very helpful!!! They helped me find a beautiful ring after I had been searching for a while to find something that didnt turn my finger green. They had a pretty amazing range of rings to choose from and was even able to find things in my size (I wear a 10 and some stores dont like it when you come in because of the fact that they dont carry it). I genuinely enjoyed my time there and would recommend that everyone should go there and support them!
