Beautiful store and wonderful owners & employees. I went in to get information for two of my reading students who love dinosaurs. The owners & employees are knowledgeable and passionate about gems and fossils. I hope my students have the opportunity to travel here to see the McCoy Mineral's fossils.

Shop is beautiful, knowledgeable staff and the owners are a wealth of knowledge I wish I could even wrap my head around. I picked up an opal ring that I can stop staring at.

I've been coming to Blowing Rock for years and have always visited this shop. It's a fun shop that offers authentic genuine crystals and minerals. The owner helped me select a stone for a custom ring he made. He was very attentive and informative in helping me pick a suitable stone. I will always recommend this shop to friends or anyone interested in authentic jewelry and fantastic customer service!

Doc and Trina are great, very polite and helpful. I'm a regular at the store and Doc's Rocks gem mine. He is the only one I get my raw gems cut. I highly recommend them.

While visiting Blowing Rock, NC and searching for a piece of obsidian, we were directed to this shop just down the street from where we were staying. Mr. R. McCoy or Doc as he is known in the area, welcomed us into his shop like an old friend, asked if we needed help with anything specific, so my husband asked his question about obsidian and I began to look around."What a find" I exclaimed, as my husband sighed, here she goes.Amazing jewelry designs, wonderful array of different stones, gems and of course fossils, large and small stones. Everything a jewelry lover and collector can desire. We purchased several pieces of jewelry, rings, earrings, fossil bookends, and one of the best finds a large piece of Buffalo Turquoise, untouched, unpolished, perfect for jewelry making. Sadly, we did not find a piece of obsidian big enough for our project, but the items we found, purchased and the friendly connection we made with Doc, left us so very happyHonestly, Doc has offers the fairest prices I have experienced with high end, top quality jewelry ever. Wish I had more time to shop, could have found more valuable items to add to my collection. We will return! Highly recommend taking the time to stop by and visit with Doc. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience Mr. R. McCoy.K & J O'ReillyMassachusetts

After stopping at Docs Rocks I had to stop here and meet the Doc they told me so much about. He lived up to the tales and more. I loved this shop and what they do and I definitely recommend stopping by. Customer service was excellent and their collection of gems and other things was incredible! They had so many things I’ve never seen or heard of ?

This is our favorite store in the Boone/Blowing Rock area. They have an awesome collection of amazing finds, with new specimens every time we visit so we can add to our own growing mineral collection. We started as faithful customers of Doc's Rocks with our kids, and not that they're grown we all head to McCoy's. Doc and Trina have helped us pick one-of-a-kind gifts and jewelry over the years. Highly, highly recommend!!
