A MUST SEE STOP for Families - This place was AMAZING! We got the family package (4 hard hats, 4 buckets, treasure hunt, bonus gold coins, and fossil+gem Learning books with magnifying glass). You then get to pan for gems in your bucket. We got 6 plastic bags full of HUGE gems and minerals. All of that (experience e, kids pay area and creek, goat and bird interactions) for $99.99. We have a family of 5 but yhe buckets were so huge my husband and I shared and had to help the kids. Great value! The store is awesome and there are picnic tables for lunch. A MUST SEE STOP for families. It was the perfect size for our kids (1, 3, and 7 years old). It had something for everyone.
