Family owned business since 1961 when the first sign permit was acquired. Some old army barracks and room additions make up this landmark that offers an array of merchandise (much of it Texas made), Pecan and Peanut brittle,breads, antiques, Texas art, huge assortment of taffy, homemade candies, canned goods, jewelry, unusual toys and gifts, candles, lotions, etc. The Smokehouse was brought into Hidden Valley back in 1985 by Ron Wenzel, known locally as the square headed Dutchman, along with the deli which offers a wide variety of delectables. Today the Dutchman's daughter, Kara Chorenziak, along with an almost family crew, owns and operates the store offering the old-fashioned recipes and time-tested values that feel like you walk into the store as a guest and leave as family. The store is nestled on 4 acres with a scenic hill and creek for a backdrop along with a log cabin and windmill nearby. Overlooking the creek is a new outdoor patio! Life is good in Hamilton County!
