Crater Rock Museum houses the finest displays of rocks, minerals and gems on the West Coast. Exhibits include a collection of world-class minerals, collection of petrified woods, fossils, Native American artifacts, and much more! The museum gift shop is filled with the works of local artists from the Roxy Ann Gem & Mineral Society as well as rocks and mineral specimens for sale from around the world. The museum started out as a humble "shack" where locals could visit and share "rock hounding" stories. It's grown a lot since then. The original 5,400 square foot museum is now more than 12,000 square feet, with community meeting rooms, a larger gift shop, workshop, and exhibit areas. We now have a rock sluice in our rock-yard for kids (and grown-up kids) to use! The museum is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm. Call for admission fees. The second Saturday of the month is Kids Day. Guided tours are available by appointment.

This place will blow you away. I'm not even sure how to adequately describe it. As we walked through the gift shop -- which almost feels like a museum in itself -- our kids (16 and 12) kept...
