Peppermint Forest Christmas Shop was founded in Charlotte, NC in 1979 and has continued to be a Carolina tradition ever since. Each year in October, we have our Grand Opening to kick off the holiday season and introduce the new trends in holiday decoration to our exceptionally loyal customers. Right now, this time of year our sister store, Oasis Pools Plus, has taken over much of our showroom and we simply have a "collectibles corner" with many of our collectible brands such as Department 56 Villages, Byers' Choice Carolers, and Old World Christmas ornaments on display until our full store reopens in October. The Peppermint Forest's 35,000 square foot facility is unlike anything you have experienced. Though our entire inventory is not available online, you'll find thousands of Christmas treasures and gifts for everyone on your list.
