Finding remnants of the past isn’t a difficult feat in Arizona but places like general stores and trading posts still operating decades—or centuries—later is more of a challenge. Thankfully, there are some great examples of these stores still standing and some have even managed to keep the charm of their settler roots. Today, we’re going to check out one general store that is historic, charming, and one of the main hubs in this tiny town.
Crown King General Store is located at 1 Main Street in Crown King. You can find details about visiting on their Facebook page or their website, crownkingaz.com.
