This is a wonderful little place to stop in and check out in Bat Cave. The owner is super sweet and helpful. We were able to get some cider frozen from last year’s batch and can’t wait to give it a try. They also had apple jelly which is super hard to find without cinnamon. If you’re in the area I’d definitely recommend dropping in and checking this place out. If you’re in town during the let summer months into fall (August-October) then you can get fresh apple cider to try.

This little gift shop is a lot smaller than it looks from the outside. It has a lot of things in the store. Every inch has a unique something. You can spend a lot of them in this little shop if it has what you are looking for. It has gifts like candy, jelly, fried peanuts, beef jerky, apples, arts & crafts, souvenir t-shirt, etc..., and even apple cider. I purchased several bags of fried peanuts, which I love! I also got a 1/2 gallon apple cider. In the Winter, the Apple cider was still cold after I made a stop and back to the hotel. If you want some apple cider to go, any other season, I recommend bring a cooler. They has apple cider samples. It is worth a quick stop if you are in the Chimney Rock and Lake Lure area. There are signs at the register asking you pay cash if possible. Being a small business, not having to pay the credit card fee helps.

This is a nice quick stop along your way if you find yourself in Bat Cave North Carolina. It's not too far from Chimney Rock State Park. They have some cool things to browse from local crafts to general souvenirs. I'm not sure if the old mill still runs in the summer months but it's still there reaching down into the river beside the shop. They also had fresh local apples and cider when I stopped there in late October.

Love this place! Best homemade apple cider you can get in this are, in my opinion. They do have other items, so when stopping in, make sure to browse around. Super friendly staff.

The lady working here was super nice and gave us the history of the area. We inquired about the area and she was a wonderful source of information. The shop is super cute with lots of different things, including stuff for your pets! The prices were all very reasonable as well. The outside area is very clean and relaxing.
