Snows Home and Garden

Snow’s is a great store to browse around and they often have that «thingy» you need and can’t find anywhere else. Children love to go and watch the trains. They only get three stars from me because of their prices. You can almost always find lower prices elsewhere (unless, of course, you can’t find it elsewhere.)

One of the best stores on the cape. They always have everything you need, things you never even knew you wanted, and the most amazing Christmas department. I can and do spend hours in here getting lost in the incredible amount of gadgets and gizmos. The staff is always super friendly. Their prices can be a little high but so worth it when finally find that evasive gift or long sought after outdoor décor. But at the same time, some of their items are a steal compared to Bed, Bath and Beyond prices! ($ 3 gardening gloves?!) Always new items to see whenever I’m in town. This place never disappoints! Parking can be a bit nightmarish especially during tourist season so be mindful of that.

The absolutely everything store. Slightly higher prices than the box stores or online but it is one of the few places left on earth where you can do one-​stop home-​wares shopping with a large variety of high quality offerings. Layout is easy to browse and staff is always helpful.

Snow’s is such a cute store and I wish we had more «mom and pop» stores like it. If you’re looking to «Cape Codify» your home or just get a few things to decorate your home be sure to check them out. I always recommend to our friends, family, and customers that they try to go to Snows before heading to one of the big box stores in Hyannis. Their staff hits the absolute highest level of customer service in my book.

I have been coming here for a long time, Snows has just about everything. You might pay a little more (not always) but they do stock quality items. They have a knowledgeable and friendly staff. The isle space is not over crowded and because of that even when busy it is a pleasure to shop there. No wonder they have been in business so many years,

Snows is a very valuable resource if you’re staying in the Orleans area for any significant length of time. They have a little bit of everything — toys, appliances, art and hobby supplies, hardware, souvenirs. On days that are not beach/​outdoors worthy, the store is very well kept and has a large enough inventory to occupy you for a little while and you can pick up a game or something to entertain yourself. Great for picking up that one thing you forgot to pack — especially if you’re renting a vacation house.

Customer service– not helpful— and didn’t appreciate the condescending attitude.
Yes she responded «by the book» but she lost a future customer for the store.

Always stop by Snows anytime I go back east and visit the Cape. A little pricey but they sell great stuff.

It was one of those cold rainy summer weekends in Eastham and I was trying to find somewhere to kill time with the boys. Somehow i found out about Snow’s having a train sale and we decided to check it out.
Once we got inside we were greeted by one of the friendly sales people and they pointed us to the trains. The boys went crazy when they saw the train layout with all of the working trains, buildings, and model cars moving around within the display case. What a great sales idea!
There was about twenty other dads with their kids there that all had the same idea of killing some time away from home that day and it was busy but that did not stop the staff from answering my novice train questions.
When visiting the Orleans area make a point to stop by Snow’s Home and Garden. By the way… they sell hardware too.

I am warming up more and more to Snow’s through the years. I like the bonus rewards I receive in $ 10.00 increments. I still like some of the layout and watching the trains. The have more than enough staff. The flower prices are still to high and yet I can find a lot of what we need in the hardware area. I just purchased a Weber Grill there that I thought was a pretty good deal. Now, I know from nothing about grill prices but when I a saw $ 250.00 off well I went from looking for a grill cleaner to a new grill. Oldest daughter Kate was the winner of the old Weber that has served us well on CC for ⁶¹⁄₂ seasons and frankly year round. It has needed nothing, cooks hot, and has been indestructible. The new Weber… she’s my baby. She has this sort of gray pearl like finish that has me keeping this one cleaned and covered in her black plastic robe. I slowly take it off before cooking and she glistens and shimmers… enough of that. So really like the extra burner for roughing it. I cook (smoke ribs on it), fish of all sorts but kicking ass with tuna and my striper fingers. Oh yea the deal. Salesperson was pretty crafty. He knew when I said I was just looking I was really buying. Entice me with an offer I thought. Wow $ 250.00 off just like that, have in stock only $ 25.00 for delivery! What? Silence, I ask him where the charcoal is… he replies we will deliver for free. Amex comes out and we have a new grill. Delivered the next day; fired up for the big party and the striper fingers were a big hit.
I like this place. As mentioned much better cookware area with better brands. Need to get a personality over in the paint area but hey if I sold paint I might be like that too.
More blue hairs in that store then at the wine tastings at Friends on the weekend.

When we wash-​a-​shores moved to the Cape we were sent to Snows when we asked where to buy something. Snows always had the item we never had to search as their knowledgeable and polite staff was right there to answer questions and guide us to the myriad of options. We never sifted through their merchandise for quality vs. price. There is no junk just top notch quality products. Snows is the most delightful shopping experience from trains to flowers there is something for every member of your family. Residents tourists or second home owners will all be able to pick something out? NO DOUBT!!!

A whole display of PRESSURE COOKERS. An immense, working model train under plexiglass for the kids. Very helpful staff, who somehow show none of the indigenous grouchy attitude. Art supplies. Hardware. Kitchen supplies — old staples as well as newfangled gizmoz. Honestly, I can wander around Snow’s for hours. Pricey? Yes, arguably, but welcome to Cape Cod, y’know? I admit I bought the pressure cooker. No regrets!

Perfect!
Snows has what you need!
That used to be the slogan for Snows back in the 80s. I love this place. it’s like the cape’s own version of Home Depot.

I always, always stop here when I’m on the Cape. They have such a weird selection that you find a few things that you really didn’t know you *desparately* need to get right now.
One of the draws of this place is the train area. This will keep your youngster quiet and enthralled for minutes on end… especially after they realize that they can move some of the stuff by pressing the buttons. Only problem is that you have to hold the younger/​shorter kids up and they get heavy! You also might have to dodge a few «Can we get that!!!» pleas on your way out to the car.
The area around the store is super busy, watch out for bike riders (the trail goes right by the store) and inside the store can get slightly crowded with the beach goers. But they have a large parking lot and the kids can run around in the garden section in back.
Some of the items are priced high… but if you need to replace something in the house your renting, they will probably have it.
