Shopping

For nearly 14 years, Resort Resale on Hwy 98 in SoWal has been an excellent resource for locals,  second homeowners and rental owners. And recently it's gotten even better!

The cavernous store houses all manner of gently-used, high-end furniture, rugs, decor, and art - enough to furnish many homes. It's one of those rare places you can walk through a dozen times and see something new every time. And then a week later it's totally different with a constant and exciting changeover!
