Yellow Dog Marketplace

Very quaint. Spent about an hour just looking around. Bought some one of a kind local products

There’s a lot to be said about this place but I will give you just the highlights. When you drive up it is the cutest thing you’ve ever seen. From the outside stepping through the front door, you know you are coming into a special shop. If it wasn’t for my two bulldozer children who of course promptly knocked over a vase and broke it, I would’ve wanted to stay all day. There are so many neat things in this shop- not only made in Michigan, but just artisan and unique from around the country. I went there because I was on the hunt for a certain tea made by a Michigan company called Vine Tea, that hires people with disabilities. As an autism mama, supporting adults with disabilities is extremely important to me and I thought it would make a nice addition to my friends’s box of gifts that I was mailing out that weekend. I soon learned you can truly find a gift for anyone on your list in this special beautiful store. What was even more special is the shop owner. I was already having a terrible, stress-filled, time-crunched day and when my kids broke the vase, I just crumbled. You see, I was there picking out a gift to mail to my friend who was getting her results from her radiation that Monday. It was urgent that I ship her care package box out out that day. After the vase broke I just burst into tears because of everything that was going on and boy the owner was so incredibly kind and patient. 😭 Not only with my children who broke her merchandise, but also with me. Immediately she came around the counter and gave me the biggest hug. Her sweet gesture made me feel like I was hugging an angel and suddenly my stress completely melted away. I went there for Vine tea and left with that and so much more. My friend loved her box full of amazing gifts from The Yellow Dog and I’m happy to report her radiation results came back clear for no new growths. Please go to this store and buy all the things. What a gift this experience turned out to be.

I love this place. Always great items to get lost in. Ladies greet you, as if they have known you for ever. If you need a gift this is the best place to find it. Stop by,,, You won't be sorry.

Amazing place for gift shopping or treat yourself!! So many handmade goods, clothes, candles, coffee, pottery, ornaments and tons more. Lots of Mitten stuff, loved that. Owner and staff are amazing and helpful. Couldn't get through the entire thing so heading back. Go, you won't regret it!

A quaint shop with the heart of bargain hunting in mind. We were greeted with the warmest smile. I perused every nook and cranny . We even found some things to come back for. This was DEFINITELY worth the time spent. I'll return and I'm bringing friends.
