The tour was interesting. We wish we could have hiked the trails around the cave ... they looked great. Very pretty views. read less

The RV sites are large and (mostly) flat. The surrounding views are spectacular. We went on a 2 hour hike our first day and wished we had slotted double the time. Absolutely worth a visit. read less

The ladder tour was just active enough not to be boring and even pushed our comfort zone a bit here and there, without requiring real skills (like the intermediate and wild cave tours do).  Don’t worry about the reviews of dry caves or broken stalagmites and such - it’s still plenty neat.  It’s a true 90 minutes, and we were ready to be done at about 85 - which, in this sound bite world in which we live, means it was pretty entertaining.  Oh, and the road is fine.  And the views are really pretty out there.  Enjoy! read less
