A historic building & new business take shape

Chad and Ally Fife have been connecting via books for 30 years. Chad as a designer and Ally as a reader. Then came Stephanie Price, a popular book reviewer on Instagram to help create the perfect team.

The Shop's shelves are hand-picked by Ally and Stephanie — lifelong avid readers, mothers, and history buffs. Then when you're ready to unwind, just check in upstairs in our 3 bed/2 bath suite!

Or you can rent our amazing loft space on the 3rd floor.

Book Haven is a magical place for readers, couples, groups, and creative souls.

We think you'll agree. But we had to tackle a historic renovation first...
