I only have 2 snakes, and prefer very Naturalistic habitats. I currently have a Cloud Forest biome (Black Milk Snake) and a Chaparral Biome (Cal King).
I SELDOM buy accessories; the best ones are in nature. Small logs can be sawed, or halved, rocks & branches abound and can be cleaned easily before placement.
Shrub & tree sprigs give a very natural look to any habitat, and many ideal types can be obtained from your yard (David's Viburnum, Laurel, Rhododendron).
I have a rock & wood collection from all over the Western United States, and my biomes look exceptional as a result of using natural materials.
That said...
The best places I've found are:
1. Local pet shops (they sometimes amaze at selection for specialty items like water dishes).
2. PetSmart
Even more than PetCo, these guys have great accessories. Designs & styles have come a long way since 1970.
Here is a link to my Flikr account showing biome examples. I hope that this helps:
