Walk through the Matthew Watson General Store and you will feel like you're in another era. It's the oldest operating store in the Yukon — a fixture during the 1898 Klondike Gold Rush.
We welcome you to our family-run store as a great place to shop, admire antique goods, and enjoy a piece of homemade fudge or a delicious ice cream piled into a homemade waffle cone! Explore our enormous selection of souvenirs such as books, clothing and slippers, as well as locally-made pottery, jewelry, beadwork and art. Find us in the heart of downtown Carcross from May to September. Open daily (although our store hours do vacillate a bit, we are usually open from 12:00 - 4:00 p.m.)
