As always this is the third weekend of October and festivities begin on the third Friday – October 15th.

We are updating this page now.  Please visit again soon.

But did you know that almost half of our visitors completely miss at least 4 of the most unusual shops in Roscoe Village when they visit us?

As the top online guide to shopping in Roscoe Village, HistoricRoscoeVillage.com is here to help.  Take a look at the short features below, for a handy guide to quickly finding and enjoying ALL the great shopping you’re missing — even when you think you’ve seen it all in Roscoe Village.

1.  Wildwood Music Shop | 672 North Whitewoman Street | (740) 622-4224
Situated alongside the Canal Basin, near the site of the historic Triple Locks structure, Wildwood Music Shop is an internationally renowned music store that barely needs any kind of introduction. 

This remarkable shop stocks more than 400 one-of-a-kind stringed instruments (like handmade guitars and dulcimers) and draws visitors to the village from all across the United States.

On the subject of dulcimers, the owners of the Wildwood Music (along with our good friends at VisitCoshocton.com) were primarily responsible for saving the world-famous Dulcimer Days Festival that once drew thousands of visitors to Roscoe Village every summer.  

Wildwood Music Shop is open every Wednesday through Saturday from noon until at least 5:00 p.m. 

But you can visit Wildwood Music online anytime at WildwoodMusic.com

2.  The Wine Maker’s Cellar | secret lower level | 440 North Whitewoman Street | (740) 622-2383
The Wine Maker’s Cellar is hidden away in the lower (cellar) level inside the very girlie Canal Cargo Shop, with its amazing selection Very Bradley bags and softly scented candles. 

But every man bold enough to slip away from his keeper and sneak down the back stairway uncovers a secret “man cave” strewn with glorious manly treasures like beer making kits and complete setups for making 20 different kinds of homemade wine.

We don’t want to give away much more about this terrific man shop in Roscoe Village, for fear that it might cast undue suspicion on all the sly men who glady say “sure” when invited to visit the Canal Gargo shop.  Just take a look down there the next time you’re inside and you will not be disappointed.

3.  Knob Hill Designs | 403 REAR North Whitewoman Street | (740) 502-9760
Located upstairs from the new Medbery Marketplace, with its entrance behind the building, Knob Hill Designs is most accessible from Hill Street.  But you can also enter Knob Hill from the sandstone-walled garden inside The Garden Gate Shop.   Just look for the big iron gate on Whitewoman Street,  

Interior designer Daphne France has created an amazing display of exquisite decor for the fine home and a one-of-kind showroom for high-quality, contemporary custom Amish furniture by PENWOOD directly from Ohio’s Amish country.

4.  The Village Pantry | 350 North Whitewoman Street (740) 575-4049
Temporarily located at the “canal level” beneath the general store, the Village Pantry Shop is chock-full of gourmet cooking items and utensils that will thrill the most exuberant gourmet (or gourmand) in your family.  

Yes, we did say ”temporarily located at the canal level.”   Due to the smashing success of its July 3rd grand opening celebration, the Village Pantry will soon relocate to a much more visible and accessible address on street level on North Whitewoman Street.

As always, you’ll read about the relocation of this great new Roscoe Village shop here first!

We hope you’ve enjoyed discovering each of these formerly “hidden shops” in Roscoe Village.  We are currently updating this page with fresh new photos of each shop.  Please visit us again very soon.

The newest eatery in Roscoe Village, Captain Nye’s Custard, Coneys & Candy shop will host a grand opening in July ( more about that soon.)

Named for the famous (and slightly wacky) canal boat captain and songwriter, Captain Nye’s is all about fun ”strolling foods” you can take with you on a leisurely walk through Roscoe Village. 

Frozen custard and 100% all-beef coney dogs are the highlights, and many more are coming soon.

We’ll have more on the shop’s grand opening soon.  But in the meantime Captain Nye’s is open now (every day) and we thought you might like to see some photos of the shop coming together.

Named for the historic Medbery Hotel, which once occupied its 19th-century building, Medbery Marketplace is a combination deli and market featuring fresh sliced meats – and the county’s largest selection of local Amish and artisan cheeses.

Operated by the owners of the famous Unusual Junction, Medbery Marketplace is a treasure trove tasty of treats, from jams and jellies to hams and deli goodies.

With fresh-squeezed,  real lemonade and FREE SAMPLES of all local Amish and artisan cheeses available to every visitor, it’s easy to see why we think Medbery Marketplace is the best thing to happen in Roscoe Village since the Warehouse Steak n’ Stein opened in 2008.
