Got to try your luck at the gold panning! Great for kids! Very beautiful when it rains up here

Nice little experience, but chances of finding gold are slimmer than getting struck by lightning.

Great place for kids and adults wanting to try their hand at panning! It was not all that expensive and one of the guys at the counter comes out and shows you how to do it. It's hard to get the hang of it but they supply you with a little plastic vile to put your findings in and there is guaranteed gold when he demonstrates! Lots of little crystals and neat rocks that you can find as well! Expect to be here for about an hour if not more! My uncle was able to find some gold in the sand, however I had no luck, likely from my own error. Had a blast nonetheless! The staff member was also very knowledgeable!

Such a wonderful experience. The staff was super friendly and our guide was so patient giving each of us a panning lesson .My family had such fun. I would suggest paying the extra to guarantee finding some gold flakes and garnets .

If you're looking to pan for gold, if you have kids (or even if you don't), if you want to experience life as a miner, if you have any sense of kitsch at all, make a trip to historic Columbia and try your hand at Matelot Gulch Mining Company. Pay the fee, grab a pan, and get to work. You'll find gemstones and perhaps even some real gold! For an extra fee, the gentleman behind the counter will give you a lesson. This is worth it, especially if you have little kids, because panning is an art and you don't want to end up with sand. Tl/dr: Totally kitschy, but very fun. Worth it!
