Kalona Tourist Trap Tips by deecat

Big Disappointment

Sisters' Garden was on my list of things to see in Kalona because I am an avid gardener and always love to see what garden shops have to offer. So, we drove to this place 6 miles north of Kalona on Highway 1. We would have passed right on by.

What a disappointment. It was one of the most disorganized, ill kept places that I've seen. It advertises, "Are you looking for inspiration and new ideas for your home & garden?"

I will admit that it is indeed "eclectic" but it is in no way "sophisticated". When they say Antiques, they mean it. The items are strewn all about, rusting, and rotting.

Fun Alternatives: My suggestion would be to drive right on by. Now, if you like what I term as junk items, and some people do, then it's a place for you to peruse.
