St. Elmo General Store

St. Elmo General Store Quintessential 'Mom & Pop' shop located in the beautiful mountains of Colorado! We are located in Coloado's most original ghost mining town of St.

Elmo, CO amid the 14,000' peaks in the San Isabel National Forest. We have a unique store nestled in the beautiful mountains at 10,019 feet. We have a blend of new and old – everything from souvenir St. Elmo t-shirts and caps to old full size wagons, collectibles and yes even the antique kitchen sink! Our vast inventory takes up the inside of our building and spills out into ‘The Yard’. We also sell the essentials: cold drinks, ice cream and snacks to get you through the day. We are open 7 days a week May through September and maybe into October if weather permits. So take a drive and come visit us! The ride up the mountain road is beautiful! Maybe you will see a moose along the way! Come see the numerous amount of hummingbirds buzzing around the store front! Can't miss out on the cute chipmunks that will beg for a treat! Hope to see you soon!

Fall colors are showing! Still lots of green on the trees. The news says peak fall colors will be around the middle of the month.

It's nearing the end of our season and we haven't quite lost our sanity or our sense of humor!
