This store is a gem! They've got a wide plethora of items, including furniture (located in a tent out back), clothing (including a small selection if men's clothing in addition to the many women's options), shoes, kitchenwares, small electronics, games, children's clothing, craft supplies, outside planters, toys, and evens sports apparel! Most items were reasonably priced and there's a lot to look through!

Went to buy dvd's cd'sThere is no return policy you take a chance! Most thrift stores give you at least 2 days to returnStore credit! I hate gambling so that's why 2 stars

They took my memory quilt by mistake when I ask for it back they would allow me to search for it. 30 years of memories lost because of a rude staff

Love shopping here. Never know what you're going to find. Volunteers do a fabulous job and the presentation of goods is fantastic. Got some good items over the years, and it's a great place to donate.

Incredible customer service! Even though I dropped off some donations outside the donation time window, they still let me donate! I would absolutely recommend donating your used furniture and goods to them and spending some time exploring their store—they have some real gems. And it is great supporting a local business!

We pull up to the thrift store and see some colorful women's tops in the window. There's one I really like and it looks like my size so we go in. I asked the woman working there if I can please see the top. She then tells me that it's not for sale. I said what about the other shirts in the window? Nope. None of them are for sale. What a joke. Isn't that the old bait and switch? If it's not for sale don't put it in the window!!

Nice thrift store came late in the day planning to return the next day but when I got to the register to make my purchase the woman was so rude, demeaning and assuming I knew the procedure for check out. Don't do this and that. Tell me the price. First time shopper. Never will go back

This is the best charitable thrift store that I know of. It is family run, with much support from their incredible staff and volunteers. All of the customers and the Leeward crew have gotten to know each other, which keeps us there talking and shopping for a long time. You are likely to here a lot of laughing. If you need something lovely, or a specific unusual "part", chances are you'll find it here. I especially like to shop here because it supports our community. I send all people who are looking to donate to Leeward. This brings me to their inventory. It is diverse, high quality, and most pieces are a true bargain. Many items still have tags on them. If you haven't been, you must come see for yourself!

This is a great thrift store. There are always a lot of customers there, and parking can be difficult. The prices are wonderful, and there is a constant rotation of products. The displays are so well done, and always in the spirit of the time of year.

For some reason it seems they have gone up on their prices, I usually go in bi-weekly, spend a 10 or so, never over 20. I bought 3 fry pans, a kids dress and a outlet plug. 40.00 I didn't notice the child's dress was priced 11.00, new it's 19.-24.00. I really think they need to take it down a notch. I won't be going as much with the prices high. They close at 5:30, but will rush you out by 5:20, you having paying customers you don't rush them out. Parking is terrible. The handicap parking isn't apparent and everyone parks in the spot not careing, if they have a lot of people there, they have no overflow parking, and they actually turn people away, because they need the two spots open for donations.Review prices, review parking and handicap parking, review customer service ;) I seen they did sort out the clothing, you can actually look at the jeans now.I hope they consider the prices, if they have someone new pricing items I don't know, but 11. For a child's sun dress is a bit much.

IDK where the reviewer below who said place was overpriced shops normally, but she is soooooo wrong! This is the most inexpensive thrift store I have ever been in (and I've been in a lot!) Whenever I have been in need of something I check here first, and I'm never disappointed. Newer model Hoover vaccuum in PERFECT condition for $15, and in the back I found bags 3 for $1. Electric jar opener that's $40 on Amazon for $5. A gorgeous multi-hole picture frame for $2. A full box of labels for my printer $1. Have bought YARDS of upholstery fabric at about .50 a yard! Their furniture tent is super cheap too. IDK anywhere you can get items any cheaper than at Lighthouse. Best part....they donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to local charities such as Pettingill House, etc. "Can only donate during open hours"...yes, that keeps people from dumping garbage! And I LOVE THE VOLUNTEER STAFF HERE!!!

Leeward's is the best spot to shop and donate. They support local agencies with the funds from the store. The shop has a nice set up of clothing, home items, and furniture. I always leave with something great. The prices are fare and items are hand selected.

Quaint, not so little thrift shop. Clothing, toys, games, movies, CDs, kitchenware and assorted knick knacks. Holiday merchandise available. Actually, quite a few items in good shape and condition. Parking was a little limited, probably due to the holiday season. Friendly staff. Receipt can be emailed or texted to you. All sales final! I like their selection of background music. "Rock Around the Clock" was playing.

Fun little nook, some bargains, good way to spend a pleasant hour poking about in search of a new read, pair of perfectly worn-in jeans, or some cute knicknack or kitchen gadget or piece of costume jewelry.

Great finds at affordable prices! The only bad thing about the store is the parking. Many accidents trying to backup or entering the parking lot. I wish there was a bigger parking lot which isn't dangerous!

The volunteers make it easy to donate, very polite and helpful! Also have found great items inside. I highly recommend for both a great donation place for a good cause and as a great place to thrift!

The staff was very helpful and they even let us in early. I would imagine this thrift store is like any other. It's a hit or miss on something that you have in mind.

Found things I hadn't been looking for and the one thing I was hoping to find. They do a good job of creating a safer place to shop.

Great deals on odds and ends. Clothes gently used. I go a pair of Lee jeans never worn for $4.50!!

I love shopping this store for the selection of items and the fairly decent prices but the women that work there are rude and make the shopping experience unenjoyable.
