Crystal Cave, Spring Valley

Great experience. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the cave and its history. I highly recommend visiting this place. The cave is beautiful and it's great for any age. The gift shop has many beautiful things you can buy some expensive and some not so expensive. The mini golf is awesome. Me, my wife, son and daughter had a great time playing it after the end of our cave tour. The gift shop and restrooms are clean and I think the price of admission to the cave and mini golf is very reasonable.

We had a wonderful trip to Crystal Caves on a Sunday. It was not overly crowded. We booked our tickets online a few weeks before and had no trouble checking in at the visitor center. The gift shop was amazing and I need to go back to add some stones to my collection. The cave tour was about an hour long which was perfect for the young kids we had with us. The temperature was fairly cool in the caves so I would suggest making sure everyone has sweatshirts with them. The cost was fairly reasonable - approximately $85 for two adults and two kids. There were several picnic tables scattered throughout the grounds so we made use of them for a little picnic. Parking was not a problem. I would come back with people visiting from out of town. It was worth the drive down from the Twin Cities.
