A GREAT place. Fun for kids! This is a new place so it is very nice and clean. The sluices worked good and was very easy for the kids to use. The guy that runs this place is very nice and helpful. He explained all about the rocks we were finding and was great with the kids. I would definitely recommend this to anyone! We will be coming back!!!

This place was great! David, the owner, was very nice and very knowledgeable about gemstones and gold. He spent a good amount of time with my son explaining each of the larger finds. The place was very clean and well maintained. The owner built everything himself, which was impressive. Found many large stones. My son had a blast!

We were in Fancy Gap for vacation and stumbled upon this place on Google. It is AMAZING! I've gone gem mining numerous times in my life and never found a place as clean or nice as this one! They are newly open and we're very friendly! Our littlest was crying because she didn't want to leave and the owner gave her a popsicle! So much fun, for all ages!!! We will definitely be back!

Questions & Answers

Is this an actual mine or do you just sift through things?

They're remodeling right now, but it's going to be a great place to go when they open this spring. You can order materials online or pick it up until then. All gem sifting and gold panning is done in their flume boxes.
