Great place to visit w the grandkids it's fun and quick stop going or coming from the dells.
Amazing hidden gem! I didn't even plan on stopping by to see this on the way back from Madison but I'm so glad that I did. If you live anywhere close by, you've got to check this place out. Bucket List
This is a great place to see. A nice cave tour that isn't too long or too far away.
Beautiful place. Just wish if they would allow to spend more time to view and take photos rather than spending time on explaining stuff like light absorption at the end of the cave.. The tour is hurried up and I would have enjoyed more if it is a self guided tour.
Definitely worth the detour!! We really enjoyed it. Perfect lighting for photography too!!
