Dunrovin Country Store

Wow....what a store. Described as a country store but I've never seen such an eclectic assortment of goods. Lots of delicious goodies like candies, jams, jelly, ice cream, sodas, and on and on. Huge assortment of pet items and outdoor decorations. This is a must see store. To much to list or describe.

Don’t miss out on this very unique shopping & mini-zoo location! Could have stayed all day looking at the beautiful live birds and other animals in the zoo area behind the store. People of all ages will really enjoy this place, and we had a fantastic time. Plus so many decor items, unique gifts and all types of jams, jellies, candy, fudge, ice cream & snacks. Guaranteed you’ll find the perfect gift for that someone who is hard to shop for. Huge variety of art & decor for the yard and home.

First time visiting this store and I gotta say it was one of my favorite stores I have ever been in. The variety of stuff to buy is unreal. It’s very similar to the Mast General Store in Valle Crusis. After visiting the store we adventure outside and found a mini zoo filled with talking birds, reptiles, and other exotic animals. It’s was all free to see. I recommend this place with anyone with kids. Very clean and friendly staff. Will be coming back for second visit soon.

Great place to see amazing animals andcshop for unique gifts. Kids love it here

Definitely planning a trip back soon. Over an hour drive to go here but it is well worth it. I need to restock on my salted Carmel pecan honey butter and pet some animals! Great place to bring the family! Do the tour! It's worth it to feed and pet the animals you don't get access to without the tour!

What an awesome place! This is a hidden gem honestly. The "zoo" area is completely free so I figured the store would be insanely overpriced but it really wasn't and they had tons of really cool stuff. Lots of handmade stuff. The birds are all really nice and the staff were really nice too. Will definitely take family when they stop by.

This place sales some rare to find items. Very interesting! There's a bird sanctuary in the back of this place. I bought some eucalyptus raw honey. It's delicious. Look at the photos below.

This is the absolute best place to go! Shopping for quaint items, plants, sculptors, Jams, jellies, candies, incense - you name it, they have it.
Wonderful, polite staff. AND exotic birds, animals. Some of the birds talk, all of them are beautiful. The animals are well taken care of - they have added many more since last year - peacocks, hares, monkey, alpaca, goats - and lots more!!
See for yourself - worth the drive (even when gas prices are crazy)!

I have lived in the area for years but never visited this little store. It is a hidden gem and I highly recommend stopping by to see for yourself! The area in the back is awesome too!!

I returned today after about 2 months since my last visit, this place is spectacular!

This is a really interesting and unique place. If you look carefully you can find things here that you might not be able to find elsewhere. It's really great to browse the wares and have some ice cream or fudge with the family. They must have a lot of problems with people's children touching everything because there are signs to that effect everywhere. Which is most unfortunate and disrespectful to the establishment. The parking situation can be a little crazy so try not to back out onto the road if you have to. The oncoming traffic can be hard to see if goes very fast. They also have any animals saying she worry that you can donate to. It reminds me a lot of the country stores of my childhood. Highly recommended!

Such a great place to buy plants, yard decor, souvenir gifts for guests, honey, fudge, candies etc. Has an awesome wildlife area behind the store w/ rescued birds, monkeys, turtles Emu, fish, etc. Wonderful to see! Highly recommend to stop in please.

What an absolute gem!! Talked with the owner (pictured) a very kind and caring person. All animals, farm animals to reptiles, and tropical birds are rescued, they do not sell, or breed any animals. All enclosures are built by the owner and he and his team are constantly working to ensure that the areas are clean, repaired, and maintained.

Proceeds from the extremely eclectic store support the sanctuary. The General Store is any but, they sell, fudge, ice cream, coffee, baked goods, spice blends, wind chimes, X-Mas decorations, honey, polished gemstones, hot sauces, plants, cast iron cooking appliances, wood cutting boards. It is just a fun spot!

10/10 - Try a Salted Carmel Affogato (espresso on top of ice cream)

This store has so much to offer, it's almost overwhelming. Their fudge is outstanding, the coffee is exotic and delicious. There are so many unique items, I get something new every time I come by. There's an exotic bird exhibit in the back along with plants and other items meant for your home garden. It's always an amazing experience at Dunrovin!

Great place to visit with the kids, also a tropical bird paradise outback that’s a must see. Fresh baked goods go out most Mon & Friday with bread being baked fresh on Friday. Smells amazing in there on Friday! Must visit if you’re passing through or visiting NC or a local, they have a large inventory of products and foods.

Such 😍 beautiful animals. So relaxing to just walk around at your pace and look at everything including different plants, animals and wonderful selection of great items inside the store!!! You will definitely find something that you need and can't live with out!!! Best lemonade, Ice Cream and fudge!!!

Such a cool store!! Tons of homemade foods, pastas, canned and jarred sauces, pickled items, jewelry, games, a small bakery counter and ice cream. What I mentioned is just a small portion of the items they carry. The aviary out back is delightful. I will post photos next time I go.

This giant Country Store / Gift Shop sits on Route 1 just north of Pinehurst.

It's part country store, with fresh cheeses, meats, specialty sodas, fruits and nuts and other grocery sundries, part gift shop, with trinkets, nic nacs, painted signs, magnets and keychains, part home decorating center, with garden fountains, plants, unique furniture and household decorations of every size for the native American, cowboy or pirate in the family, and part museum with antique furniture, farming implements and household items hanging from every rafter.

We stopped to get some local souvenirs and ended up finding Christmas gifts and birthday presents as well. It took the kind ladies ringing us up 10+ minutes to carefully bag our haul.

We spent over an hour exploring every nook and cranny, and we didn't even get upstairs or out back to the exotic animal sanctuary, where they rescue abandoned birds and other exotic pets that are no longer wanted.

We will definitely be stopping again and again everytime we go to Pinehurst. We have to. There's still a lot to see, and it's the only place to get a birch beer south of the Mason Dixon line.

This is a great place to visit and spend time.
We had no idea there were lots of birds and animals in the back so we were pleasantly surprised. The store has practically everything you can imagine to buy. I was excited that they had Jones Soda and Dad’s Root Beer.
Also, the lady that served ice cream was so sweet and helpful!

Dunrovin Country Store never disappoints. I love taking day trips with my family there to see the birds and the other animals they have. They are making new bird enclosures and have a few new animals like Walter the monkey 🐒 and Artic Fox. And of course when we go we always have to get icecream! 😉

We really enjoyed it. For the past 2 years I've wondered what it was and now we know it's a cool little spot to actually put on your list to visit in NC. The fact they allow you to see their own little variety of animals is really nice of them. They do not have to do it for free. That's awesome. We definitely made sure to stop by inside to buy a few things too. Awesome prices and unique items you can't get at your local grocery store.
