We toured and visited several caves in the area and this one far exceeded all of our other tours. Our guide, Al, was an absolute joy to follow. He was incredibly patient with our son’s questions and was extremely knowledgeable of all things. We had the best experience and hope to come back and visit soon!

Liam was very informative and friendly. Really appreciated the history and knowledge. As someone who knows nothing about caves, I wasn't sure what to expect but loved when the lights were off in the dome.

Very basic but the cabin has everything needed. Very clean, friendly check in, location is excellent!
Very private setting! Beds could have been firmer

Very beautiful cave, however I think more lighting is needed. We want to be able to see the cave we are walking through.
Also, smaller groups as we had trouble at the back of the group hearing our guide talk about the cave.
