Our Story

In the spring of 2021, we opened Blu Canoe, a small shop nestled on a small island. The pace is unhurried, and creativity thrives. Here, we bring together the things we love—treasures from small makers and like-minded artisans.

Our collections are a thoughtful blend of vintage decor, pre-loved furniture, and a touch of modern design—a harmony of things, both timeless and fresh.

When you visit Blu Canoe, we invite you to:

  • Discover pieces that reflect your unique style and spark creativity.

  • Savor the calming aroma of a candle destined to become your new favorite.

  • Find the perfect pillow to cozy up your favorite cushy chair.

  • Stroll home with a beautiful market basket filled with flowers or fresh produce.

  • Transform your home into a space that tells your story beautifully and authentically.

At Blu Canoe, you will find that and so much more.

We would love for you to visit us.

Preserving a Piece of History
Est. 1927

Once upon a time, there was a small fire station on a quiet island just over the bridge. Built in the 1920s, it served the community for decades and became a cherished part of the island’s story.

In the spring of 2022, Blu Canoe was honored to step in as the caretaker of this historic gem.

We’re committed to keeping the spirit of the little firehouse alive, ensuring it remains a safe and happy place for the island community to enjoy—season after season.
