    Entrance to cavern
    Hayden H.

    A Hidden gem a little drive out from Eureka Springs. Jeffrey was our tour guide and was so kind -- we enjoyed the experience! The hill getting back to the entry was pretty steep.

    Our tour guide Wayne was the best! He was super comedic and make it a pleasant experience. This was such a hit for our group and we were even lucky enough to spot 2 cuddling bats!

    Awesome family activity to explore this beautiful area. Adam was such a great tour guide too. A nice little 10 minute walk to the cave and then about 30-40 minutes in the cave. Kids loved the mining for gems after as well.

    As someone from the Chicagoland area, we don't see this kind of stuff often around us. We came to visit my grandparents and decided to come by here and it has been one of my favorite stops of the trip. The land surrounding it is breathtaking. It's hard to remember that America has such beautiful places like this. Beaver lake and that river ( connecting with boat access) as you walk down was beautiful to see such clear calming waters. The cavern was jaw dropping. It was stunning in of itself, and just left me in amazement. From the temperature inside being constant, to the thousands of years old formations within the cave. Overall this place is a fun and gorgeous experience and is a great stop to add to any individuals, couples, or families stop.

    Beaver Lake!

    Great cavern tour! Our tour guide, George, was funny and super knowledgeable about the cavern and surrounding Beaver Lake area. Beautiful land and well maintained cavern areas. Be warned, if you are claustrophobic you may struggle with the low ceilings in some areas. Gorgeous cavern system. Easy walk. Hour long tour, worth the entry fee!

    Great place. Everyone is friendly. Tour through the cave was interesting. Fun place. Highly recommend.

    I thought the signs on the drive in were tongue in cheek jokes about no cell phone service. But they were right. And that's ok, gives me more time to enjoy the nature. Our tour guide was John and he was great. He had his standard jokes and script. But he also was very engaging with our group. The tour took us in to the caverns where we learned much about caves and caverns, bats and Jesse James. Then we were allowed to walk around and take in the sights above the cavern. I highly recommend spending a couple of hours here. The tour takes about an hour.

    The tour starts here. Open late this year special occasion

    Timing is everything. We got here after lunch at the War Eagle Mill (see my separate review) in time for last tour of the day and one of the last for season. Usually they close at end of Oct and open in Mar to allow the bats to hibernate undisturbed. But open a bit later this year. Your tour guide makes the show so get a good one. Our group was small in number and wide range in ages 5-70+. Tour takes an hour after walk down to opening, inside and then back up. Wear flat shoes and duck you head in places. If you have mobility issues (cane/walker etc) this tour is not for you. Our tour guide was excellent having been on staff since 2003 and done a bunch of tours especially school groups. BTW: get an education on bats; bat poop used in fertilizer food, rum, tequila, and gun powder production.

    Great side trip and nice drive out of Eureka Springs. Beautiful scenery hiking down to the cave entrance. Great story telling by our guide Jeffrey

    My boyfriend and I were driving through the area and looking for something fun to do outside to kill some time and stretch our legs. We decided to stop here and it was a great decision! Adam was an amazing tour guide. He really knows his stuff, is super friendly, and was great with the kids in our group. Obviously the cavern was really cool too! We definitely recommend stopping here if you're in the area.

    There was also a nice gift shop and maze we meandered through where we learned about the different Indian tribes.
