3 Reasons to Visit Sterling

"Whoever said that money can't buy happiness simply didn't know where to go shopping."

On your next road trip to Sterling and Logan County, make sure to stop and buy some happiness while you're here. We found three great shopping experiences for you!

The Old Library Merchantile and Coffee Shop's selection of vintage home decor, western art, kitchen goods, and more will inspire you to create your home’s unique story. This handsome dark brown and tan brick building located off Sterling's historic town square was the town's first public library. Built in 1918, the library was part of the nationwide public library movement sponsored by Andrew Carnegie. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this beautiful landmark is now a unique shopping destination in eastern Colorado.

Sweetly Vintage is a charming store in the heart of downtown Sterling. This is where you will find a bit of old, a bit of new, and lots of handcrafted and upcycled furnishings, featuring new arrivals often.

Barb's Main Street Gifts is a gift shop extraordinaire. This downtown staple exudes the flavor of the area with an always new supply of Western wear, jewelry, and home decor. And there is so much more: kitchen supplies, food products, coffee, baby gear and clothing, footwear, along with a pharmacy and holistic health services. Make sure you say hi to "Boo," the resident cat!
