    Port Huron Michigan - Scottish shops?

    Heading over the line in the next few weeks to try out the strong loonie versus the Ameribuck. Anyone aware of any Scottish shops in or about Port Huron?

    First let me say, lucky you, Port Huron is awesome this time of year. But the only Scottish shop I know of in Michigan is on the other side of the state up in Traverse City its called Henderson Imports.

    I grew up not too far from there and don't know of any Scottish stores in the area. It has been several years, so I guess I am not the best to comment. Although, there are others here that I see (from their locations) are more local. Hopefully they can chime in...and hopefully there IS a shop If so, I will be certainly checking it out next time I'm home.

    Sorry, I'm not too much help.

    There is a Scottish Shop in Lake Orion,MI(just north of Pontiac). It is part of a group of shops at Canterbury Village. Highland Fling is the name of the shop and the owner(Gordon) is from Scotland. Bought my first kilt there, a hand sewn 8-yd made in Scotland.There is a huge Christmas Shop, and a pub called the Clansman. They have a small Highland Festival there on July2-3.

    Re: Port Huron Michigan - Scottish shops?

    Wow. Haven't been there, nor ordered. Glad I didn't! For longer term orders I have a couple of sources closer to home where I have a lot of confidence and in a pinch could go in and place a curse on them if they don't deliver.

    Re: Port Huron Michigan - Scottish shops?

    Say hello to ol' Port Huron for me.
    Attended 1st thru 4th grades there back in the 60's.
    My Dad was Pastor at First Baptist Church in Port Huron.
