Reviews
"Loved this place, my kid loves rocks and the owner was really kind to spend the time educating my kids on the different kinds rocks :)"
"This place is so much fun! My husband & I split a bucket (50.00). You go pick out a bucket and take it to the water. When you are done you take the gems into the store. We found tons! Ian is the best he tells you what each one is. Definitely recommend!!"
"If you have young kids this is a must add to your trip. Brian at the front desk is incredible. He gave our kids a trip to remember. He knew each of the gems they found and explained them with excitement. The kids LOVED it!"
"Bill was great and talked to us about all the gems and stones. Very helpful. My 11 and 13 yo boys loved it. One 5 gallon bucket ($46) took them about 30 or so minutes to sift through. Be prepared to get a little dirty, not a lot. Maybe more so with young children. 4 stars only because I hoped we would find a couple larger stones. Most were pretty small. Overall very happy we went!"
