Customer Reviews
We really enjoyed camping and mining here. It's small quaint and everyone was extremely happy and friendly, both staff and fellow campers. We yielded so many crystals, the kids never got bored. The event they held had many vendors and was well planned. Great experience!
Wonderful place to camp! Our tent site was right on the creek and it was just beautiful scenery! If you stay at the campsite, they give you early access to the mine as well! The shop at the campground was very affordable. They have WiFi at the camp store for those who need it. Rest of the area had 0 connection (which is completely normal for a campground)! At the mine we found many awesome Herkimer Diamonds! Only downside was you had to pay a quarter machine for the shower, there was only 1 women’s shower (not sure if they had 1 or 2 men’s) as well. I definitely recommend this campground & mine. Such a peaceful, beautiful stay!
Visited with Scout Troop Oreland 1. It was the perfect outing for camping and for fulfilling a requirement toward the Geology Merit Badge. This is a great trip to take with kids, but it's also a trip to take with friends. Kudos to the staff, who are friendly, knowledgeable, and accessible. Shout out to Pat whose enthusiasm for geology and nature's wonders is sincere and contagious.
The cabins are so cute and I had such an amazing time with my trip here! The mines are also very nice and we found some very cute crystals on matrix and some water clear gemmy ones! The gift shop area is also very clean and cute. Amazing experience for the price! The bathrooms could use some extra love but aside from that I have zero complaints!
Wonderful place! Staff are very friendly and helpful! We decided to take my daughter (11) mining since she loves collecting crystals and we enjoy it ourselves , The grove dose not disappoint, we have been twice now and enjoyed our day , it’s really cool to see your kids head pop out of a dirt hole giddy at her finds. I will say though I wouldn’t advise this for littles, expect them to get bored fast if they can’t chill in one place and dig in dirt for a good amount of time, however you can walk nature trails, ride bikes and camp (very clean grounds) and close to other outdoor activities in the area.
