"Visited a Monday morning in late May (Memorial Day weekend). It's a small store so I can imagine it being a little crazy busy on a weekend. There was a great selection of merch from NPS/Eastern national. They have passport cancellation patches, pins and hiking medallion and a bunch of other items. Lots of books and apparel as well. There were also snacks available. The two ladies working there were very friendly and super helpful in answering our questions. The Appomattox Court House National Historic Site Cancelation Stamp is also located in this bookstore. It's on the left side when entering next to the counter. I included a picture of it. Definitely worth a stop if you're visiting the park."
