Lake Drive Hardware

I like the small mountain community ACE hardware. This place makes you feel welcomed every time . The employees always greet you with a smile. They offer help, and you don't have to wander around the store to find someone like the big box stores.

Small hardware store with great folks that ALWAYS has what I need for whatever I am working on. It always amazes me how I am never disappointed when I go there looking for something. They ALWAYS seem to have it. AMAZING.

When you need a friendly, and honest advice about hardware, paint, etc, this is the place. These guys really love what they are doing. They love their work and their customer. Old school America"s Customer Service. They will never lie to you and they will help you to save money and time!

ACE is the place. Our local mountain hardware and garden centers two location across the street from each other. Great service and a wonderful Ace garden shop across the street as well.

Great place to grab some hardware or paint when you need it.

Customer service based and friendly staff especially the garden and rental side of street . Very helpful.

Everyone that works there is so knowledgeable about everything in the store and where to find it. Talk about a easy shopping experience.

Friendly staff and very knowledgeable. Super helpful. Between the hardware store and the garden center, they pretty much have anything you need

always friendly but I don't think they know about the disabled and elderly discount on adventure passes. make sure to bring proof. or get them online.

Nice place! Friendly staff

**Update!!**

Thank you so much Scott for always helping out whenever I have plumbing questions and also looking for the right parts!

This is a great place to get professional help and suggestions from the right people who know their stuff. Even if you are starting out as a carpenter, plumber, electrician, or painting and more, this place has the people who can not only locate what you need, but give you the advice on how to so it. That's why I like coming here. You will be more confident in your day to day projects and also know that you have people here at Ace hardware that will have you back on projects.

I love buying the stains here for staining wood and paint, they have a good paint staition in the back of the shop. also the different hardware too and tools are a great variety.

This ace also makes keys on the spot, Al its a good place to stop if you need to make spare or copies of keys, and they always make it accurate, and it worked everytime for me.

Thanks Ace for keeping Crestline community a good place to live, and also a great help to others!

Keep up the good work. 🔨 🪵

Absolutely the best service. We're visiting our kids and had a BIG list of products for some repairs Found everything but the staff followed us around to help. I was delighted to have the help in a store I was unfamiliar with.

A must to do things while you're out enjoying nature. Always something different to buy. Guy is super great and the kids love him and his bird.

Best small town hardware store you could ask for. Great service, friendly smiles, fair prices, and the always have what I need, even if I have to pester a sales person to help me find it.

My experience at this location has improved since my first visit. Seems like they read my review because the staff completely changed and showed great customer service. My husband loves to ask a million questions and they answered them with a smile. Thanks Ace for listening and improving to show your the best hardware store on the mountain. Keep up the good work!

I’ve never been here and had a bad experience! The staff is helpful and friendly, the products are good quality and priced fairly and the paint guys, absolutely the best! I have had products recommended that I now use exclusively, I’ve been taught little handy techniques to finish a project, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised with the selection available when I’m looking for things. I genuinely LOVE this store! It’s 100% awesome!

Cute little hardware store. Easier to navigate than the one in Rimforest and might have a slightly larger selection. Had to return some items and it was hassle free.

Edit: I changed it from 4 to 5 stars because while they can't possibly have the selection of one of the big chain stores like home depot it's a nice hardware store to shop in if you're looking to pick up something pretty basic. Very friendly employees.

This is your old time, friendly, small town hardware store with almost everything you could need. Across the street they have a garden center and outdoor equipment area where you can buy or rent anything you need for working outside. In the main store they have plenty of hardware fasteners, fittings, paint and tools. Often the owner is behind the counter and the staff is very helpful. I purchase almost all my supplies, get my chains sharpened and fill my propane here (propane here is a better deal here than the 7/11 exchange). Renting gear like power washers or polesaws is also easy. They also have a small Radio Shack electronics section with lots of bits for repairs. Overall unless you're working on a very big project, this is the perfect place for everything you need. The only one thing this shop is a little short on is building supplies and lumber but for just about everything else they have you covered.

They always have what I need. I hope they get the roof repaired soon so they can expand again. Winter was tough on everyone this year.

This place is a life saver. They have EVERYTHING! I needed a replacement glass chimney for our oil lamp. Someone broke it. They had the exact size and shape we needed. Been going there for 38 years, if I remember correctly.
