We are very proud to support the local businesses of our area. Did you know that we are a Local Business also?

Ben Franklin Crafts is not a “chain” of stores, they are all independent. Our store is owned and operated by the Smith families. They are originally from Milan, Indiana and moved here and opened the store in 1990. There is not a corporate office telling us what to sell or a warehouse supplying us all with the exact same products-- that is what makes our store and all other Ben Franklin Crafts stores so special and unique! We offer a personal shopping experience that is geared to our customers! When you shop with us…you shop local! We want to thank all of you for your support and encourage you to continue supporting the many amazing local businesses of our area!

HIGHLANDER POINT SHOPPING CENTER 758 HIGHLANDER POINT DR., FLOYDS KNOBS | 812.923.8179 It started in a cow pasture in Floyds Knobs- one dream, three guys and sixteen acres. In 1978 with the help of an Atlanta banker and the strength of a gentlemen’s handshake Bob Elsby, Bob Koetter and Lee Miller purchased the property from Mary Scharf and paved the way for Highlander Point Center to become a reality. Koetter & Elsby both agreed that in order for the center to be successful they needed four things...a grocery store, a drug store, a bank and a hardware store. In 1980 when the shopping center opened they started with Jay C Food Store, Mutual Trust Bank, which is now PNC, Point True Value Hardware, which is now Limeberry Home & Hardware, American Family Insurance, Burger Queen, which is now Dairy Queen Grill & Chill, and NuYale Cleaners. After forty years these tenants remain. For the past forty Elsby & Koetter’s vision for a community shopping center has evolved into what Highlander Point Center is today with over forty businesses and still has room to grow.

It is possible to shop local, save time, money and gas. The center offers a wide variety of restaurants, banks and financial services, dentists, doctors, physical therapy, and a grocery store with a pharmacy. You can get your hair done, indulge in spa services, pick up your dry cleaning, and go to the hardware store for supplies and advice. You can get a family portrait , make plans to build a home, get free market analysis on your existing home or even drop your kids off at daycare. If you are here on the right day you can even donate blood or get Halloween treats. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our patrons for your continued support throughout the years and for voting us “Best Shopping Center in Floyd County”!
