Food, furniture and more at Dutch Valley If you’re driving toward Sugarcreek on scenic State Route
39, you’ll discover a cluster of clapboard
buildings known as Dutch Valley. Once a working farm owned by the
Lorenz family, today it is
an oasis of hospitality from which to enjoy Amish country. Along with
the well-known Dutch Valley
Restaurant and Carlisle Inn, the campus includes Dutch Valley Gifts and
Dutch Valley Furniture.
Although currently home to a tasteful gift shop,
Dutch Valley Gifts was once the humble home
of livestock, hay and farm machinery. Today, Dutch Valley Gifts earns
its keep by offering an elegant
selection of fine gifts, easy-to-wear clothing, fashionable jewelry,
luxurious personal care items, and
gracious accessories for home and garden. Tucked into glass-front
hutches, stacked on shelves,
arranged in beautiful tablescapes, and displayed gallery style on the
walls, are hundreds of creative
gift and decorating ideas.
With three floors of cozy rooms, nooks and
crannies, lofts and corners to explore, you’ll find a
lot of shopping in one beautiful place…like lamps, framed and matted
art, and hand-painted pottery.
Heritage Lace window treatments, high-quality leather goods, beautiful
jewelry, and men’s items perfect
for the golfer, hunter, fisherman, gardener, or sports fan. Stationery,
textiles, and dozens of
romantic scented candles. Children’s outfits, precious baby presents,
and unusual toys. Even specialty
foods, Amish Country souvenirs, and inspirational books are part of the
collection. Dutch Valley Furniture showcases nearly 40
different lines of high-quality, handcrafted, hardwood
furnishings on two floors of inventive displays and imaginative room
settings. Beautiful quilts
and comforters with matching shams provide the perfect finishing touch
for sturdy wood bedsteads
crafted with simple lines and meticulous attention to detail. Delicate
china lines the shelves of solid
oak hutches, some with meticulous, traditional details like dove-tail
drawer construction.
A source for more than just furniture, the shop has
other surprises in store. Within its lovely
room settings, you’ll discover a wide variety of interesting home
accessories — from framed mirrors
to ceramic lamps, from kitchen clocks to custom curtains.
If you’re intrigued by the idea of discovering
beautiful, handmade Amish furniture or fine gifts
inside renovated farm buildings, there’s probably only one place in the
world you can find it. A visit to
Dutch Valley Gifts and Dutch Valley Furniture is truly a unique and
inspiring shopping experience that
you won’t find anywhere else.
