Review Quotes
"I love Northport Trading Post! And the staff is so friendly. They have a ton of items that can help you rock hunt, including scoops and buckets. They also have a great selection of already polished rocks and are happy to show you different polishing techniques. Every time I go in here they are so friendly, and I leave with a ton of information!" -Liz K.
"Jen and Scot (the owners of Northport Trading Post) were my favorite people I met during my time in Michigan. From the moment I walked in, they gave me tips for rockhounding in the area. I came back the next day and Jen helped me identify the rocks I had found and even polished one for me! I took their rock polishing class and I cannot recommend it enough. I will remember that experience for the rest of my life. Everyone, go visit!!" -Tori S.
