"The broccoli soup is delicious! The staff is always so friendly and welcoming. It’s the cutest spot in Afton!"
- Paige Alise, February 2024
"Absolutely loved our stay at The Lofts on 89. The space was stylish, super clean, and had all the modern touches—full kitchen, comfy bed, and a cozy living area that felt like home. Location is perfect too. You’re right above Swirl Frozen Yogurt (amazing toppings and homemade treats) and next to The Giftery, which has the best boutique gifts and western-style decor. Whether you’re visiting Star Valley for a weekend getaway or passing through Afton, this spot checks all the boxes!"

"The Giftery is such a cool boutique. They’ve got a really well-curated mix of western-style fashion, unique home decor, and some of the best gift items I’ve seen in Star Valley. One of the highlights was the authentic buffalo leather bags—super high quality and truly something you don’t come across often. The whole shop feels warm and inviting, and it’s right next to Swirl Frozen Yogurt and The Lofts on 89, so it’s a perfect little stop whether you’re visiting or local to Afton."

"The Giftery is a gorgeous locally inspired gift boutique, filled with items that are designed and made by local artists in Wyoming. Some of the pieces have even been designed by the daughter of the boutique’s owner, Wendy. Wendy herself is a humble and beautiful soul that not only provides great insight into the pieces on display, but makes it a point to get to know her customers and community. I had a wonderful time exchanging stories with Wendy all the while admiring the incredible hand made fashion, accessories, home goods and other items..."

"We could not have happened upon a better place on my business trip in Afton. I was in the mood for ice cream. We stopped in and were immediately greeted with smiles. Not just from the owner but from people from the town. Chad and his wife were superb hosts. We immediately struck up a conversation and we're able to chat about similar interests. The raspberry and pineapple frozen yogurt mix was divine. My husband had the banana and vanilla mix which was his favorite..."

"Our youth group and leaders stopped into Swirl and had an awesome time. They had great flavors and the surroundings while sitting outside eating were top notch. The owner and staff got all 42 of us filled upon fro-yo and we will definitely go back. Great gift shop for the adults as well😊"
