“Originally established as a community project, the Gwynn’s Island Museum started out on a small scale. From the beginning it was obvious that there was a great deal of interest in preserving the long and colorful history of Gwynn’s Island and Mathews County. The Museum grew rapidly and by the end of the first year space for the many exhibits and artifacts had become limited, so plans were made to look for a new home on the Island. A 100-year-old building, originally serving as the Odd Fellows Lodge and later the Island’s first public school, was donated in 1992 and restored by dedicated volunteers to what you see today.”

“A fairly big consignment shop with almost anything you can imagine! Mathews has become a "hotbed" of sorts for "unique boutiques" and consignment/thrift shops. This one has been around for quite some time and always fun to visit. ”

“Part of the Chesapeake Bay Gateways Network and your source for maps, brochures and area information. Over 60 local artisans contribute to the vast collection of gifts and hand crafted treasures along with a wonderful collection of historical exhibits & educational displays.”

“This little boutique is one of our absolute favorites! Specializing in coastal and cottage decor, she has many unique re-finished items as well as new gift items. You can also find a small boutique in the back of the shop with contemporary ladies clothing and lots of cool jewelry. Very reasonably priced.”

“Outdoor patio dining, love the fajitas with many options. Try the tropical fajitas. Big margaritas.”
