Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Only giving them 3 stars because while it's a wonderful place packed to the brim with everything you could want/need & then some, it was very busy (eclipse day so lots of visitors) & there was no assistance on the floor. I appreciate being able to just wander, which I did, but I had a couple of questions & there was no one to ask. If I'd wanted to try on some of the clearance clothing in the camping area I saw no dressing rooms. Cookie jars said see staff for assistance. No one there except at the front register. I didn't go to the toy area so can't speak to that part. I'd like to return on a calmer day & see if there's a difference in the atmosphere.

This place is a giant variety store , not really a hardware store ! Although they do have hardware , they also stock lots of camping & fishing gear, specialty foods & kitchen items, books, candy and so much more ! If you've never been, it's worth a stop !

This is such a fun place. To call it a hardware store is a misnomer. It has hardware, books, clothing, kitchen supplies, gifts, handmade items, fishing gear - the list goes on and on. The prices tend to be a bit high for things you can get at home and at peak times it can be a bit crowded, but all in all a fun place to visit. You might even find something you didn't know you wanted!

Had a terrible experience while visiting Old forge Hardware store and wanted to let people BEWARE!! My family were visiting the Old Forge area and were browsing the shops and stores. We spent a little time in this store and my husband and I left because everything in the store was extremely overpriced and soooo not worth it. On top of this, some CRAZY worker followed my family to another store down the street and was yelling and causing a confrontation. It was the most terrible experience and something that should not have been witnessed by my grand children and others in the area.
Seems that there was an issue with a grossly overpriced trinket that a store worker was handing to my 5 year old grand daughter?? It got broken? Who was responsible? My granddaughter was so distraught that they had to leave the area and I felt compelled to warn people.
BEWARE of the OLD FORGE HARDWARE STORE!!

That about says it all. Everything from snacks, to clothes, to kitchen stuff, housewares, and an actual hardware store off to the side.
Well worth stopping in

A one-stop shop. Really. Everything you need to make your Adirondack vacation complete. Need a book to read? Yarn for knitting? Outdoor furniture? Fishing gear? Kitchen utensils? Oh, and hardware. Great place to browse and kill time or stock up your camp.

Old Forge Hardware is one of my favorite places to shop when I am in the area. You can get your fishing license, camping gear, any kind of tools, cooking and baking supplies, fishing gears , books and ADK items. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Old Forge Hardware reminds me of the local hardware stores we had when I was little growing up in a rural part of town.
