- Plymouth Furniture's Big Chair
If you’ve ever driven by Plymouth Furniture and done a double-take like, “Wait… is that an actual giant chair?”—yes. Yes it is. The Plymouth Furniture Big Chair has become one of those wonderfully weird, totally lovable local landmarks that makes people pull into the parking lot with the same urgency as a coffee run.
Painted a bright, beachy turquoise and built in that classic Adirondack style, the Big Chair is impossible to miss—and even harder to resist. It’s part photo-op, part roadside attraction, and part unofficial community meeting spot. Kids love it. Adults love it. And your camera roll? Oh, it loves it.
A landmark you can actually climb on (and brag about)
Most “landmarks” are things you stand near while squinting at a plaque. This one is different. The Big Chair is built for climbing up, sitting down, and living your best oversized-chair life. The slats stretch tall behind you, the arms are wide enough to feel like a picnic table, and the whole thing makes regular-sized humans look like action figures—which is exactly the point.
Haunted Every October with the Big Skeleton
Every October, the Plymouth Furniture Big Chair levels up from “iconic photo spot” to “legendary seasonal backdrop” when our giant skeleton pops up behind it—looming over the chair like it’s guarding the comfiest seat in Wisconsin. That spooky (but totally family-friendly) setup has become a can’t-miss tradition for locals and visitors alike: people swing in for a quick fall photo, kids dare each other to climb up first, and everyone leaves with a picture that screams October in Plymouth. Even Adam Berry, paranormal investigator from the TV show Kindred Spirits, couldn’t resist grabbing a shot on the Big Chair with the towering skeleton behind him—proof that whether you’re here for laughs, chills, or just a great selfie, the Big Chair in October is the place to be.
A Pokémon GO PokéStop (yep, it’s that kind of famous)
The Big Chair isn’t just photogenic—it’s officially part of the Pokémon GO universe as a PokéStop. That means trainers swing through to spin the stop, grab items, and (let’s be honest) take a victory pic while they’re already there. It’s one of those perfect real-world game landmarks: easy to find, fun to visit, and genuinely unique.
So whether you’re a seasoned trainer, a casual player, or someone who just likes saying, “I caught a Pokémon on a giant chair,” this spot delivers.
People come from all over to snap the classic Big Chair photo
What started as a fun storefront feature has turned into a real “you’ve gotta do it” tradition. Families take vacation-style photos. Couples do goofy poses. Friends pile in for group shots. Some visitors even come back every year to recreate the same picture—same chair, different life chapter.
It’s become a little ritual: pull in, climb up, smile big, and leave with a memory (and usually a few laughs getting positioned on something that makes you feel adorably tiny).
