During Summit's mining days, any store likely to be found was a basic affair, catering to the barest necessities of living in the mountains. Today, shopping in Summit County is a much more interesting endeavor.

The storefronts that line our local Main Streets make a quaint, cheerful outline, and inside offer a wide variety of items, from clothing and furniture to unique handcrafted items and goofy souvenirs.

So whether you're looking for something to sashay down the street in, a gift for a far-off friend or family member or a memento from your stay in the mountains — these shops have you covered.
