As we discovered last summer on a trip through the western Central Adirondack region, no trip to the charming village of Inlet is complete without a stop at Fulton Chain Supply Co.—a boutique that captures the soul of the Adirondacks with a modern, design-forward edge.
Perched along Route 28 at the head of Fourth Lake, this thoughtfully curated shop has quickly become a must-visit for travelers exploring the Fulton Chain, Old Forge, Thendara, and the quiet coves and hamlets that dot the Central Adirondacks.
Quality and style in Inlet.
Part rustic-chic lifestyle store, part love letter to the North Woods, Fulton Chain Supply Co. stands out for its authenticity, quality, and style.
A great place for gifts (and gifts for yourself).
Inside, you’ll find cozy flannel blankets, lake-themed art, and modern Adirondack apparel that feels equally at home on the trail, at camp, or by the fire pit. But the real story lies in its roots—a young entrepreneur who turned her lifelong love for this region into one of the most talked-about boutiques in the Adirondack Park.
A boutique built from Adirondack roots.
Behind every great Adirondack business is a story of someone who came for the lakes and stayed for the lifestyle. Fulton Chain Supply Co. was founded by Maggie, a Rochester native who grew up spending summers at her family’s camp in the Fulton Chain region.
Those trips to Inlet became the inspiration for her future: she met her fiancé, Adam, there—a lifelong local—and together they built a life just outside of town with their chocolate lab, Riley.
At just twenty-two, Maggie turned her passion for the Adirondacks into a full-fledged business. Fulton Chain Supply Co. opened its doors with a simple goal: to bring elevated style and thoughtful design to lake-life living.
What began as a dream quickly became a destination, drawing both locals and travelers looking for something more personal than the average souvenir shop.

Curated, not cluttered.
Every Adirondack town has its collection of souvenir stops and T-shirt racks, but Fulton Chain Supply Co. plays in an entirely different league. It’s a shop for people who love the Adirondacks not just as a vacation spot, but as a way of life.
Everything you need for a perfect ADK stay.
Each piece of merchandise feels hand-selected with intention. Think waffle-knit shackets, alpine-print sherpa jackets, and cozy oversized sweaters in earthy, lake-inspired hues. It’s an aesthetic that nods to campfires and morning paddles, yet wouldn’t look out of place on a city street. This is Adirondack style—refined, wearable, and built to last.
Authentic to its core.
From branded tees that celebrate Inlet and the Fulton Chain to prints of Arrowhead Park and Fourth Lake, nearly everything in the store tells a story about this place. These aren’t generic “Adirondack” labels—they’re reflections of the lakes, woods, and people that make the region special.
Because Maggie is usually in the shop (or someone who knows her is), you’re never just another customer. You’ll likely leave with more than a purchase—you’ll leave with a recommendation for a nearby trail, a tip about a lake access point, or a new appreciation for life inside the Blue Line.
Visitors who fall in love with the shop can keep browsing year-round through its online store, which mirrors the in-person selection. Whether you’re back home dreaming of the lake or planning your next trip north, you can stay connected to that Adirondack feeling.
