Small husband and wife owned gem store. The wife was extremely knowledgeable about gems and her husband will cut any gems you find if there big enough. They had a nice selection of cut and polished stones

Ms. Holly was so incredibly kind and made the experience a memorable one for my children. She had the best energy and excitement when educating us about each of the gems! Highly recommend for a fun family friendly activity!

This is the coolest gem store! They have a wide unique variety of different gems and fossils. There is different sizing of gem buckets to choose from for sluicing. You can tell they love what they do and were so kind and patient with kids. They answered all our questions about the gems we found and were so very sweet. We will be back!!

Fantastic place. The owners are very personable and kind. Trust me when I say the gem mining buckets and such are very much worth it, the bigger the better! Would absolutely come again!

I had so much fun at this gem mine. My fiancée and I chose the big square tub and we got so many crystals and gems. The lady was very helpful in identifying each piece we found. My fiancée loved the huge selection of raw and polished stones. He loved their adorable puppy too. We will definitely be going back!

This was an awesome and truly best gem mine to visit, to mine lots of amazing gems. My daughter, Fiancé and I had a spectacular time, sifting through the dirt to find all the gems that we had found. Holly and Rocky are really wonderful down to earth people, and are very intelligent and very knowledgeable about many types of elements found in the earth. We all had a really amazing time also spending time communicating with them and just there happy go lucky and very warm heart-felted sincerity. We look forward to visiting this lovely gem mine next year, since we live 200 miles away. :)

Lovely local gem. The owners really know their stuff, and they have fun fossils - even a dino egg!!! We did gem mining with our kids and it was fun to learn what each rock was, and get tips on tumbling them. While my kids “mined” I explored and picked up this beautifully carved rhino. We will definitely be back.

This place was AMAZING!!! The owners were so sweet and informative and kind! I took my son and my nephew for the first time and it was such a wonderful experience. We got the large square tub and the amount of gems and precious stones we got was unbelievable! The building was full of amazing gifts and art that the owners made. I could spend days in there and still not see everything! I live in MD and I can’t wait to come back to go again! It was truly a wonderful experience.
