Our kids loved this place. The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable. This was the last stop before home on our vacation, and the kids had an absolute blast.

Visiting from Florida passing though. It was fun and I learned a lot. Staff was great. I did get some nice pieces in my small bucket. Loved the Dino stuff.

The best learning experience for an amateur rock hound ever! Honest representation of offerings, knowledgable staff and huge selection of rough. The best buckets I've ever mined and they make you feel like their best friends have just arrived. There is literally something for everyone, whether a rock fanatic, dinosaur lover, even fantasy collectors of dragons and fairies. Be sure to hit the Trina's coffee shop too!
