Great fun! - Had an absolutely wonderful time...great surroundings, a different take on the usual Escape Room and additional things to do at the location after we "Escaped"] so that we ended up spending several hours there. The sledding and the mine tour are a must do too IMHO.

Amazing! Beat mine tour - My 10 year old son and I did the:
1) mine tour with gold panning
2) treasure hunt
3) sleigh tour with sledding
We had the best time on our off ski day. Miner Jon is SO passionate about everything and was involved in guiding the mine tour (younger than 10 year olds also enjoyed) and in being puzzle master for the treasure hunt, which I didn’t see as many reviews on.
Treasure hunt is escape room style with puzzles and on property lock boxes. My 10 year old was able to do it nearly by himself. SnowBoots would be fine if you don’t want to snowshoe. Involves a cryptex/ metal detector, keys. My kid loved it.
Mine tour was most informative and packed with info (miner Jon guide) . Out of 3 mine tours we have done in the U.S., this was favorite. gold panning sleigh ride with Michael were fun . Both very passionate about work .
Sleigh ride is the most light on history/ information if that’s what you’re looking for but younger kids would enjoy the Racing sleds at top of summit.

Birthday Adventure! - We decided to check out Country Boy Mines for my 40th birthday. From the moment we arrived at the mine we felt welcomed. John at the registration hut was extremely welcoming and joked around with us as we waiting on our tour guide Katie to get done with her tour before ours. We did the snowshoeing treasure hunt outdoor escape room with Katie and it was highly entertaining and a real puzzle! Katie was great at being patient as we struggled with some clues and helped us a little without giving anything away. The "treasure" we got at the end was some very cool rocks that my son is very into right now and he loved! After they were very accommodating to let us hang out and continue snowshoeing and exploring. The property is beautiful and has great trails the snowshoe and explore. I would highly recommend checking them out and I look forward to going back and checking out the other activities they have!

Fun Couples Activity - Such a fun and challenging experience. Our guide Ryan was amazing! It had snowed the night before which made some of the clues hard to find, but Ryan gave us hints as we needed them. I highly recommend this experience.

Hidden gem in the mountains - We went up for a late friends' Christmas get together and had a blast, everyone there was so friendly and wonderful. We had Katie, John, and Michael that we interacted with on our adventures and they were very knowledgeable and welcoming. The owner even let us try our the new tubing hill he was working on creating and it was a great way down the mining path. Highly recommend checking out Country Boy Mine for a family adventure!
