GREAT EXPERIENCES EVERY TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!! - I went on a trip to NC, literally just to shop at this mine for my business. Joe, one of the managers, is the most wonderful man, helpful in every way. I work with Joe even when I am away from the mine and, even though they are always busy, he always takes the time to help me find all I need and I never feel like a bother. They have a phenomenal selection, very well picked and placed out. Store is always clean and the staff always makes me feel like family. I would definitely recommend a stop here for they never disappoint.

A fun morning rock hunting!❤️ - We arrived early so excited the first thing we did is feed the goats. We crossed over the bridge where the creek was running then we came back and got our bucket of dirt. We had a great time a great family activity.

An absolute must do if... - An absolute must do if you have kids that are into dinosaurs and fossils! The gem mining was the part my kids loved the most because they got fossils!

Been gem mining for decades…this place is already one of our faves! - Great for all generations. Awesome high yielded buckets and wonderful shopping for all kinds of treasures. Friend friendly staff. Great location. Easy to get to just awesome place.

A fun visit for the whole family - A fun gem mine with covered seating. I love that there was plenty of space for families so no one was hunched over a tray. Instead we all got to sit and watch as the kids mined their gems. The buckets our kids got had plenty of gems and kept them entertained. The store was a fun collection of things as well

Amazing - So good great rocks I would love to come again 1010 best experience ever would recommend to the people that has not came yet.

Awesome!!!! - I think it's really good! I love the rocks I love the dinosaurs, love the rings I love the color I love the bracelets it was overall an amazing experience I love it 10 out of 10!

- Can't here with the family. It's an amazing place for an afternoon of fun. Such an incredible selection. Fairly priced.

- We always love coming here when visiting my folks. My daughters have a great time and the staff is always great! Gift shop has plenty of great finds!

Tourist trap - This experience was significantly overrated. It's not really a "goat farm". There is one pen that has goats and you can pay an additional $3 fee to feed them. The area is very small- definitely not a walking tour. The front desk staff were rude and unfriendly. They mostly ignored us, gestured to the buckets of gems for mining and then barely acknowledged us when we brought the empty bucket back. They clearly weren't interested in trying to make sure we had a good experience. Your money is way better spent at a place where you can spend more time and actually get something useful at the end.
