Cornerstone Mercantile
Shoppers keep mentioning the sheer number of dealer booths and mostly realistic prices, plus a friendly man at the front counter who packs purchases carefully for the trip home. Set on the edge of Waynesville's Frog Level Historic District, it suits treasure hunters, nostalgic browsers, and budget-minded antique fans.

Antique Antics
Hand planes and vintage tools fill the shelves at Antique Antics, along with costume jewelry from several eras, all packed into a small former home on South Main Street. It suits woodworkers, jewelry collectors and casual browsers who like a long hunt. Prices run on the high side, so knowing values helps when you negotiate.

Sutton & Sons Antique Mall
Smoky Joe, the resident cat, greets shoppers at the door and often tags along through booths from nearly 30 dealers stocked with old Christmas decorations, vintage postcards, license plates and cast iron. It suits collectors and Maggie Valley visitors with time to browse, though prices vary by booth and some run high.

Spenceberry Antiques
Shoppers often mention owner Teressa Spencer's deep knowledge of china patterns, and her willingness to teach as she helps you browse. Two crowded floors hold glassware, china, earrings, and mid-century and primitive pieces at mostly fair prices, though aisles get tight. It suits collectors hunting one-of-a-kind items and casual browsers with time to dig.

Balsam Antique Mall
Old saddles, butter churns, Shirley Temple dolls and shelves of grandma-era china fill the individually owned stalls here, and most shoppers admit an hour barely covers it all. It suits collectors hunting vintage furniture and glassware, bargain hunters, and visitors who like a friendly, unhurried browse. Leave the dog at home, though — visitors report it isn't pet-friendly.
